This first-floor master suite is one wing of an 8,500-square-foot home. The suite has his and her studies as well as bathrooms. The studies are located between the bedroom and the rest of the home. This set-up helps insulate the suite from the activities of a large family while still providing convenient access from both the bedroom and the house. Between the studies is a coffee/wet bar, which saves a trip to the kitchen.
Her bathroom has a stub out for a tub should a future owner be so inclined. But the current owner wanted a chair for relaxing. Her closet has a large island in the center. The clothes are protected while being easy to find behind glass doors. His closet has a similar layout. Both bathrooms have swing out flat-screen TVs.

This design thoughtfully blends shared and private spaces to create a sanctuary for a couple to enjoy. The snoring room is a connected separate bedroom that can be used to ensure a good night’s rest when the other occupant is snoring or restless. The master bath—with separate closets, water closets, shared dressing area, and grand shower—provides privacy when needed and acts as a link between the primary master bedroom and the snoring room. The additional spaces and functions provided in this design address the true needs and desires of the active-adult buyer.
