Design Your Multi-Generational Home with CJ Homes

With increasing financial pressures and housing shortages, many adult children are either staying at home with their parents for longer or returning to the nest. As a result, multi-generational living is making a comeback. But what happens when you have several families trying to cohabit in a home built for just one family, many years ago? In most cases, chaos and disharmony ensue. 

Not to despair, there are affordable options available. 

Save costs and enjoy more time with your family in Multi-Generational homes 

Now families can pool their resources and build contemporary designed homes that are perfect for housing multiple generations under one roof. Unlike renovating older homes, building new properties allows you to tailor the design to suit your family's unique needs. Picture this—separate kitchens, dining, and living spaces, bathrooms, bedrooms, plus media and rumps rooms all within the same house. It's like having your own private apartment under one roof! 

Not to mention the extra benefits – cost savings being a major one. By sharing expenses and consolidating resources, families can ease the financial strain of running separate households. Plus, building a new home tailored for multiple generations can be more cost-effective than renovating an existing property. You’ll save on construction costs and have a fixed budget.  Also, you enjoy the process of choosing colours and styles for fittings and fixtures and having the latest modern appliances to choose from our Inclusions package. 

Spending more time together as a family means you’ll have live-in babysitters and carers on hand for the older generation too, making it a win-win for all. When you’re ready to downsize, your multi-generation home will be a great investment to lease or sell. Imagine being able to afford living in a brand new modern home with a layout that works best for everyone. 

Where to build your Multi-Generational Home

If you’re wondering where to build, there are many master-planned estates with larger blocks catering to larger homes. For instance, on Brisbane’s northside, you can choose from popular estates surrounding Upper Kedron and further afield to Morayfield.  Peaceful hinterland estates in the Lockyer Valley, or beautiful bayside blocks in the Redlands, and family-friendly estates in Greater Springfield offer a mix of luxury living and affordable options.   

Regional centres such as Rockhampton and Yeppoon have plenty of land and are ideal for combining multi-generational families under one roof. We have a range of single-storey multi-generational design options  

Alternatively, if you have an existing house on a large block, you can knock it down and build a new; or subdivide and build two homes, the options are endless.
