What are you looking for in a new home? Everybody has different needs and priorities. The style and type of new home you buy or build should reflect your lifestyle and what is most important to you.

If you have children, think about some options that might make things easier. Think about the layout of your new home. With small children, keeping their room near the master suite makes it easier to check-in on them in the middle of the night. In the kitchen, a walk-in pantry might be a feature to consider in the kitchen if you want more storage space. And speaking of the kitchen, a kitchen opening to a great room will let you keep an eye on your children while you are in the kitchen.

An open great room is also a great idea if you are planning to entertain in your new home. If you are busy preparing in the kitchen, an open area will allow you to still mingle with everyone. If you love to entertain outdoors, how about some sliding doors to a large backyard patio? It'll make the entire home feel open.
