House Plans with Dens

Open floor plans are the go-to house design layout in modern home plans. Open concept floor plans make it easy to entertain and spend time with family when the great room, kitchen, and dining room all flow together. While this sense of togetherness is great for families, sometimes a separate space is needed where people can pursue activities in private. A den can serve many different purposes, and a common purpose would be a smaller and more intimate living space. Comfortable furniture and entertainment, such as games or movies, make this a place where individuals or smaller groups can enjoy downtime.

A den or family room offers a unique space to meet your family's needs. This space may function as a study for completing work or school projects, a library, a media room or game room. While the great room or living room is more formal and intended for entertaining, the den or family room is a casual space that is small and cozy. For formal occasions, you can close the door to the den and not be worried that it is not perfectly tidy.

For example, The Capistrano features a hearth room and a library on the first floor, as well as a recreation room on the basement level. Any of these spaces could function as a den or family room, depending in the homeowners needs. The Austin house plan has a library near the front entry that could easily double as a den or family room for casual relaxation.
