We spend 90% of our lives in the kitchen, great/family room, or master suite. So concentrate on those areas first when thinking about a new custom home
Most everyone loves the charm of a kitchen when they come in your home. But, by placing your kitchen by the garage you can make daily tasks such as unloading groceries and taking out the trash much easier.
Visitors will instinctively know where they are welcome and where they are not. Do this by putting bedroom doors down a hall or around the corner so the doors are not in view. Never put a bed wall in public view to keep from people peering in.
A kitchen seems to be the place that people like to gather so it is not recommended to put walls up around it. By using the open floor plan concept, it allows cooking and conversing to take place. The cook often gets left out of the conversations while entertaining, so making the kitchen a gathering space will help to include everyone. This will also invite the visitors to pitch in without being asked for help.
Areas like the formal dining room, parlors and libraries may only be used a few times a year, but will present a sense of occasion. Having a casual lifestyle can still have formal and private areas for enjoyment.
A covered deck, pagoda, wrap around porch, screened in porch, or a covered patio will give you a sense of outdoor charm. It will also give your interior space a feel of openness. To increase your outdoor time, add a fireplace where friends and family can share pleasant conversations.

Sometimes it can affect the construction cost. Additional costs may include long driveways, elevation changes, dirt removal, additional dirt, tree removal, and many other lot developments. It is important to visit the property more than once. The land in the summer may look considerably different than in the winter. A hilly property may cost more than a flat piece of land due to additional lot development costs. Hilly property works better for a walkout basement, while flat land can work on just about any style of home.
