Two homes are combined to create a multigenerational opportunity in Burleson, Texas (photos: Norman & Young)

Multigenerational. It’s a word previously used by all 5th-grade teachers to confuse kids during the spelling bee. Now it’s a fairly common word.

Multigenerational is used to describe a home where grandparents, parents, and children all live together. If you ever watched the television show The Waltons, (you know, “Good night John-Boy”) that was an example of a multigenerational home.

Located on 1.57 acres in Burleson, you get a multigenerational property with a pool and land left over.

That lifestyle was common across the United States until after World War II when technologies in transportation became affordable, and a migration away from farms to the more populated cities became the norm.

With people living longer, the cost of living always increasing, and a desire for many to be closer to their family for financial and emotional support, the multigenerational home and lifestyle have seen a resurgence.

A Resurgence in Multigenerational Living

New home construction companies are creating floor plans with two primary suites or wings of a home that can be a private area for elderly parents. Homeowners are spending money to add rooms or guest homes onto their existing homes in order to house grandparents, parents, or children who can’t seem to figure out how to fly the nest on their own.

As basic expenses such as food, transportation, housing, clothing, and taxes continue to rise faster than wages increase, the multigenerational home is going to once again become the norm.

This takes us just south of Tarrant County for Johnson County Tuesday (not the same ring as Tarrant County Tuesday but oh well) for a property where two independent homes — connected by a breezeway and sharing a common roof — situated on one homesite create a perfect opportunity for multigenerational living.

While they are two unique addresses along with two unique homes, this conjoined property is listed under the address of the larger home located at 205 Meadow Creek Lane. That home is a sizeable 3,529 square feet with three bedrooms and two-and-one-half bathrooms.

The home has a total of three living areas. Two of those rooms share a double-sided wood-burning fireplace. The home has been recently updated with fresh colors, materials, and fixtures. There is an attached three-car garage at this home.

201 Meadow Creek Lane is the second part of the multigenerational property

You can access the second property, 201 Meadow Creek Lane, through a covered breezeway. This home has an inviting front porch and features 2,980 square feet with three bedrooms and three full bathrooms.

Like its adjacent home, 201 Meadow Creek Lane is open, spacious, and easily will accommodate even the largest of family gatherings.

Easily use one of the living areas for a music room – for the family band!

Both homes have beautiful views of the backyard, which has a relaxing swimming pool and covered areas.

The two homes share a gorgeous pool with beach entry and waterfall.

But wait, there’s more.

Not only are there two full-sized homes, a swimming pool, hot tub, koi pond, and pergola on this property, but there is also space and connections for a mobile home. That’s right, you could call this property multi-multigenerational. Imagine the possibilities!

Now you can invite not only direct family to live with you but you can even call your distant cousin or long-lost relative to come and visit as well.

In total, 5 garage spaces, 2 carport spaces, 2 large workshops with electricity and a partridge in a pear tree

Finally, if you and your family need something to do, there are two large workshops complete with electricity for multigenerational projects and tinkering.

Even if you don’t have family that you want to be around, 205 Meadow Creek Lane can be a tremendous investment opportunity. Possibilities are endless in this Burleson property!
