Building Homes for Multigenerational Living

Flexible Home Options for Today's Families

Housing affordability, lifestyle changes, and the desire to stay connected have made multigenerational living more desired than ever. At Keystone Custom Homes, we offer many living solutions that provide privacy and independence while remaining part of the same home. 

Add a Cottage-Style Addition to your Home 


For families searching for an ADU-like option or simply more privacy for loved ones, our cottage-style additions offer a practical and comfortable solution for new construction homes. These custom-designed suites could include a private bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette, dining, study, and living room. 

These additions provide many of the benefits people want from an ADU without becoming a separate dwelling unit, keeping your home zoning compliant and functional for everyday living.

Choose a Floorplan with Flexible Living Options


Several Keystone floorplans include built-in multigenerational layouts designed for our variety of homeowners and their lifestyles. These options adjust part of the home to create a dedicated space for your loved ones

Flexible living features may include first-floor Guest Suites and first-floor Owner’s Suites for comfort and accessibility, as well as bonus rooms that can function as private living spaces. Additional sitting areas, en suite bathrooms, or snack bars can be added to these spaces to create a more independent living environment. Finished basements, cafes, and flex rooms can also serve as extended living areas for long-term stays or evolving family needs.
