Many people we work with aren’t just building a home to live in for a short time, they are building a home to settle down and retire in. Throughout the entire process of planning, designing and building your home, it is essential to focus on how your home will age along with you. Working alongside one of Pacific Homes’ build specialists, you can ensure that your home is built with quality and is equipped with everything you need to age in place.
Design
Before considering the specific components and materials involved in building your home, one must consider a home design that will be comfortable and livable for years to come. This may mean that a rancher will best fit your needs, or that the home’s layout will be such that all the living necessities are on the main floor, leaving other rooms such as guest bedrooms on floors above or below the main floor. Beyond our vast collection of inspirational home plans, we also have an expert team that is experienced in designing and building homes that are unique to each individual homeowner. We will work with you along the way to ensure that the end result is a home that will perfectly suit your needs, both today and tomorrow.
It’s All About The Details
Throughout the home building process, nearly every detail can be tailored to fit your specific needs. If your vision is to create the perfect home to age gracefully along with you, there are an endless number of details you have to consider. Sometimes, this can be overwhelming. Working with an expert is beneficial in this regard because they can help you consider all of the countless options and help you with the many decisions you will have to make. For example, many people wouldn’t consider the potential need for reinforced walls in bathrooms so that grab bars can be installed either right away or at a later time. Or they might not appreciate the significance of details such as installing a no-step entrance, the placement of light switches so that they are always easy to access or that choosing latch-style door handles are much easier to use for those with limited strength or mobility. These are just a few of the many details worth considering through the duration of your home building process.
High Quality Building Materials
If your home is being designed so that you can age in place and continue to live in your home for years to come, an incredibly important part of that is your home must be built to last. When building with Pacific Homes, you can feel confident that your home will maintain its quality with age. With our unique building process, all major components of the home are built in a climate controlled environment with a premium grade of lumber. This process creates less warping, splitting, shrinking, drywall cracks, nail popping and mold-related issues later in the life of your home. This, as well as the many long-lasting benefits of our Pacific SmartWall® System are why Pacific Homes is uniquely equipped to build you the perfect home to retire in.
