Do you envision living in your home for the rest of your life? Then you want a forever home – and Hanlon Design Build, the custom builders in Washington DC, can help.
According to American Association of Retired Persons, the majority of older homeowners prefer to live in their homes as they age, rather than move to a nursing facility or other retirement center.
Forever homes – or as others call it, aging in place – is a concept where homeowners who plan on living in their homes forever, work with a design builder to make their home universally accessible to people with or without disabilities.
Design trends in forever homes include:
•Wider entry ways.
•Bathrooms, closets, and hallways designed to provide enough space for a person in a wheelchair to turn completely around.
•Bathrooms with showers that are wheelchair accessible, and have grab bars.
•Bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms with sinks that are wheelchair accessible as well.
Your forever home does not have to be built all on one floor, either. Hanlon Design Build, your custom builders in Washington DC, can deliver a multi-level design with closets that leave room for an elevator to be installed later on. Your home will be ready for an elevator when you are!
Hanlon Design Build wants your home to age as gracefully as you will. As the custom builders in Washington DC, Hanlon Design Build will work with you to deliver a forever home design and build that is both beautiful and accessible. Please contact Hanlon Design Build today.
