First and foremost, we would like to say that we hope you and your loved ones are all safe and well. These certainly are unprecedented times we are experiencing. With most of the country ordered to “stay home” in order to stay safe, we are all spending more time than ever inside our homes. We don’t know about you, but we sure are learning a lot about what works, and what doesn’t work, for our family about our home!

Multigenerational households have seen a sharp increase in the U.S. over the past 10 years. Initially spurred by the Great Recession of 2007-2009, the number of multigenerational households continues to grow today. In 2016, a record 64 million people, or 20% of the U.S. population, lived with multiple generations under one roof, according to the Pew Research Center.

The Tuscany plan happens to be one of our personal favorites! As its name implies, this French Country-style home exudes rustic charm and warmth. Not only does the Tuscany have great curb appeal with its beautiful gabled roofs, eyebrow window and classic shutters, the interior is equally, if not more, appealing. With its spacious and open design, and numerous opportunities for customization, it is no wonder the Tuscany is one of our favorite plans and the featured "floor plan of the month".

One of the most exciting times in your life can be choosing a new home! From what city and neighborhood to raise your family in, to how much space you need, and what aesthetic style you want – choosing the right home is a major decision.

It is important to choose a floor plan that will suit your family's lifestyle because the floor plan can shape how you experience your home. At Evergreen Homes, we work hard to make sure our home designs fit the needs and desires of the families that will be living in them. With its spacious and open design, and endless opportunities for customization, the Wellington is one of our most popular plans and this month’s featured floor plan.
