Creating a Home for Everyone: Embracing Universal Design
May 9, 2024
At Greenwood Homes, we believe in more than just building houses; we're dedicated to crafting homes that cater to the diverse needs of individuals at every stage of life. Our commitment to Universal Design ensures that our living spaces are not only accessible and adaptable but also aesthetically pleasing.
The Bayberry: Where Style Meets Accessibility
Some may assume that accessible design compromises style, but not at Greenwood Homes. Our residences exemplify a seamless fusion of aesthetics and functionality. Take, for instance, our standout floor plan, the Bayberry. This design marries contemporary elegance with universal accessibility features, offering a living experience that's both beautiful and practical.
Key Features of the Bayberry:
Step-Free Entrance: From the moment you arrive, the Bayberry welcomes you with a step-free entrance, ensuring a warm and accessible welcome for residents and guests alike.
Main Level Primary Bedroom and Bathroom: With the primary bedroom and bathroom conveniently located on the main level, residents can enjoy easy access without the hassle of stairs, perfectly suited for those looking ahead to aging in place.
Main Level Washer and Dryer: The inclusion of a first-floor laundry area adds convenience to daily tasks, making chores more accessible for everyone.
Open Floor Plan: The Bayberry's open layout not only enhances the sense of space but also promotes easy navigation, creating a welcoming environment for residents of all abilities and stages of life.
At Greenwood Homes, Universal Design isn't just a feature; it's a guiding philosophy that shapes the way we build communities. As you explore our properties, you'll discover our unwavering commitment to creating homes where everyone feels a sense of belonging.
"The Bayberry is designed to eliminate common barriers to aging in place. It features a no-step entry, wider travel ways and door openings, and a layout allowing daily living on a single level. Interestingly, this home has also become popular among first-time buyers, thanks to its two-car garage, study, loft, and generous closets that cater to all types of buyers."
