Marlene plan in The Gates at Pates Creek by D.R. Horton

For those needing to accommodate parents or older children, the Marlene's bonus bedroom and full bath offer a distinct private wing. This upstairs retreat, separate from the main living areas, provides essential independence and comfort for extended family members. The home's 2,567 square feet are thoughtfully arranged across a single level with accessible bonus space above, ensuring ease of movement for all. Beyond this private quarter, the design prioritizes communal gathering with an expansive kitchen featuring a central island and a family room, supported by practical elements like the dedicated laundry room. The private bedroom suite further enhances personal space with its spa-like bath, complete with dual vanities, a separate shower, and a garden tub. With four bedrooms and three bathrooms in total, this home efficiently balances shared living with individual privacy, all starting from $444,500.
