Inverted Floor Plans Very Popular at DeBordieu Colony
When you have the spectacular views of the ocean, marsh, creeks, golf course, and ponds like you do at DeBordieu Colony, on the coast of South Carolina, it’s no wonder “inverted floor plans” are so popular!
It makes perfect sense! You just swap the living areas traditionally found on the ground level, with the bedrooms traditionally found on the top.
I’ve heard it called “upper living” or “reverse living, and even “upside down” homes, but that also has a financial connotation to it, so let’s not use that one.
Inverted floor plans are designed to maximize any potential views from your DeBordieu Colony property.
During waking hours, when you can actually see those views, we generally spend time in the living rooms, kitchen, and dining rooms, so why shouldn’t the best views actually be from those areas?
As well as maximizing those spectacular water, and marsh views, an inverted floor plan will allow you to enjoy those wonderful ocean breezes DeBordieu Colony has to offer.
Building your DeBordieu Colony home with the main living areas and master suite on the upper levels will also make sure your views remain unobstructed by fences, neighboring homes, or one of those gorgeous Live Oak trees found all over DeBordieu Colony.
An inverted floor plan also allows the homeowner to maximize the light and the ceiling height!
In addition to the ground floor, middle floor, and upper living level, some DeBordieu Colony owners of inverted floor plans choose to add one more level for a roof top deck!
Inverted floor plans appeal to parents of teenagers who need a place to entertain their rather noisy friends, (I’m talking about the teenagers here…. but it can ring true for the parents too!) and to empty nesters who enjoy entertaining guests and want to provide private space for them. Some even add a kitchenette so that their guests can enjoy every convenience while chilling out at DeBordieu Colony. .
For those using their DeBordieu Colony inverted floor plans as permanent homes, the addition of an elevator to take groceries to the very top floor is very good idea.
Those who have vacation homes at DeBordieu Colony find an elevator especially useful for luggage on arrival and departure days. And then there are times the elevator comes in handy for elderly parents…. or when their real estate agent comes to visit…. HA!
