Downsizing - A Critical Decision for Your New Cape Cod Home

Posted by Matthew Teague on Thu, Nov 15, 2012

    When people are considering their retirement home, a key factor is how much space they will really need.  At an earlier stage in life, a large home with a big yard and 4 bedrooms was important, especially with children in the home.  As you approach the retirement years, many people realize that they don't need all of that extra space, along with the headaches of maintaining a large home and yard.  As such, the idea of downsizing for your next home is a good consideration.  Fortunately, downsizing doesn't mean giving up on the features that you loved about your larger space. New materials allow a lot more flexibility for open living spaces, just on a smaller scale.  When considering your next Custom Home or Remodeling Project on Cape Cod, you should consider downsizing or right-sizing your home.
