One of the most important features of any new house is the master suite. After all, this area will have a direct impact on your daily routine and this area of the house is used every day. When picking or adjusting a floor plan, this area should be one of your top priorities. Here are a few elements to consider with your master suite.

Privacy Matters

Privacy is essential in a master suite, especially when it is located on the ground floor. At Capstone Custom Homes, we try to organize our floor plans in a way that maximizes the quietness and privacy of the master suite. Having greater separation between the master suite and other bedrooms will make it easier to enjoy some peace and quiet, no matter how large your family is.

Natural Light

The right level of natural lighting will help the master suite feel much more inviting. Because of this, we consider the lay of the floor plan in relation to the lot to account for how sunlight will hit the house at different times of year. For a master suite, a skylight can serve as a great way to add natural light and prevent mold and mildew growth, while still preserving the privacy you need in your bathroom.

Closets and Storage

A large walk-in closet can make all the difference for busy spouses. You don’t want to be bumping into your spouse while trying to get ready in the morning! The right configuration will make clothes and other items easy to access. Additional storage space in other parts of the home will also help keep the master suite from becoming cluttered.

By accounting for privacy, lighting, and storage, you will be able to pick a master suite that best fits your preferences. This way, you’ll love every part of your home!
