With children tending to stay in the nest a little longer alongside an ageing population, many families are turning to multigenerational home designs as a solution to comfortably house adult children and grandparents. 

What is a multi-generational home design?

A multi-generational home design is two homes in one with private entries, separated living areas, bathrooms, kitchens, bedrooms and outdoor living all under the one roof. Mojo’s home designs fit everything a multi-generational family need, all into a single storey.

Designing homes for multi-generational families 

Mojo’s multi-generational home designs offer the perfect solution for multi-generational families living under the same roof!  With space, privacy and comfort taken into consideration, Mojo’s multi-generational house plans are a creative solution for families looking for space for adult children, grandparents and guests or even as an investment opportunity.

Maximise your property's potential 

Multi-generational home designs provide a great opportunity for investment should you wish to sublet out a section of your home. Not only do you have two homes under the one roof, but you are also creating opportunity through rental income. Whether you rent both separately to different tenants and have two rental incomes or live in the larger home whilst tenants help pay off your mortgage on the smaller one, the options are there to assist you in paying off your home sooner. Mojo’s architecturally designed floor plans unlock your block of lands investment potential, allowing you to live in half your home, and live off the other!

What to look for in a multi-generational home

When looking at multi-generational floor plans, it is important to consider three important factors:

  1. PRIVACY
    A multi-generational house plan should allow privacy for both parties. A home design with separate living spaces, bedrooms and bathrooms is a must.
  2. ACCESSIBILITY
    Allow family members to come and go as they please with an easily accessible, private entry.
  3. ONE OR TWO DWELLINGS?
    Would you prefer separate homes on the same block, or would you prefer a larger home with separate living quarters? If you would like further privacy with a separate dwelling, one of Mojo’s granny flat designs may be better for you.
