For many homeowners, the ultimate goal is to live independently for as long as possible—safely, comfortably, and with dignity. At Davis Custom Homes, we believe your home should support you through every chapter of life—not just the present, but well into the future. That’s why we design and build with longevity, accessibility, and aging in place at the heart of every decision. From thoughtful layouts to future-ready features, our homes are built to evolve with your needs—so you can live with peace of mind, retain your independence, and continue enjoying the place you love most.
Learn how we can help you build a future-ready home where you can thrive for decades to come.
Single Story Floor Plans for Long-Term Living
One of the most impactful decisions when building a home for aging in place is the layout. At Davis Custom Homes, we offer floor plans that minimize or completely eliminate the need for stairs. A single-level design not only makes everyday living more convenient, but it also reduces risks for those with limited mobility.
We pay close attention to room placement—placing primary bedrooms on the main floor, locating bathrooms near key living areas, and ensuring open transitions between spaces. The goal is to create a layout that supports independence now and decades down the road.
Wider Doorways and Open Pathways
To further promote an accessible home that blends style and comfort, we can design floor plans with wider doorways and hallways that don’t just meet code—they exceed it. We incorporate open pathways between key areas like the bedroom, kitchen, and bathroom to ensure unobstructed movement. We want our clients to be able to move freely and comfortably, no matter what stage of life they’re in.
Accessible Entryways and Transitions
Navigating your home safely begins at the front door. We build homes with zero-step entries, meaning there’s no need to climb stairs to get inside. This feature is especially important not just for older adults but also for visitors, parents with strollers, or anyone carrying heavy items.
Inside the home, we eliminate raised thresholds between rooms, making it easy to move throughout the space without tripping hazards. These subtle changes make a significant difference in maintaining mobility and reducing accidents.
Preventing Bathroom Incidents
As we age, the bathroom becomes one of the most important spaces to design with safety in mind. Each year, thousands of individuals end up in the emergency room due to injuries sustained from slip and falls. At Davis Custom Homes, we provide a variety of options with safety and personal preference in mind. We can incorporate walk-in showers with grab bars making your bathroom safer and more accessible to reduce the risk of accidents. We also install higher toilet seats, adjustable vanities, and slip-resistant flooring—all aimed at making daily routines safer and easier.
Building a Home for Life—with You in Mind
At Davis Custom Homes, we see aging in place not as a limitation, but as an opportunity to live fully and confidently in the space you love. From the initial consultation to final walkthrough, we’re committed to helping you build a home that fits your needs today while anticipating the future.
Our designs are not just about accessibility—they’re about freedom, peace of mind, and the joy of living in a space that works beautifully, every single day. We work with clients directly to make their home dreams reality. Contact us at your earliest convenience to request a consultation!
