A first impression that makes a statement

Before your clients step into the main living area, the Sage sets the tone. The entry greets them with vaulted ceilings and plenty of space, so it feels welcoming instead of cramped. A built-in coat closet ensures guests have a dedicated place to stow their belongings, perfect for buyers who plan on entertaining and want to wow visitors from the moment they arrive.

Purpose-built productivity: a main-floor study

Tucked just off the entry and removed from the home’s busiest areas, the main-floor study offers a quiet, versatile retreat. Ideal for remote work, managing daily tasks, or creating a dedicated space beyond the kitchen table, it delivers convenience without compromise. Remote/hybrid professionals, freelancers, and digital side hustlers alike will value having a purposeful workspace that doesn’t require sacrificing a bedroom. Tech centers are also available at select locations.

Optimized open-concept living space

Covered patio with furniture

The kitchen, dining area, and great room flow together into one open, seamless space—so the host can stay part of the conversation, keep an eye on the kids, and not miss any of the fun. It’s the kind of connected layout today’s buyers have come to expect, and the Sage delivers in a way that feels airy, not crowded.

A covered patio just off the kitchen and dining area invites the outdoors in, making it easy to enjoy gatherings, meals, or quiet moments outside without missing a beat. It creates a natural extension of the home that’s perfect for everything from weekend barbecues to laid-back evenings. This feature is ideal for families with young children, avid hosts, and clients who prefer a home that feels connected rather than compartmentalized.

Smart meal prep organization

Well-appointed kitchen with white cabinets

Between school lunches, grocery runs, and weeknight dinners, kitchen chaos is all too common. The Sage tackles it head-on with a spacious walk-in pantry that keeps everything organized, well-stocked, and within easy reach—so meal prep stays simple, not stressful. Large families, dedicated meal planners, bulk shoppers, and anyone upgrading from a kitchen with limited storage will find this feature especially valuable.

The drop zone: a clutter terminator

Here’s a stat worth sharing with parents: 73% say their kids drop bags, shoes, and jackets the moment they step inside. A drop zone eliminates the clutter before it becomes a habit. When everything has a dedicated place, it tends to stay there. If you’re working with active clients who have lots of gear—or buyers who are done dealing with the daily backpack pileup by the door—the Sage’s drop zone is an easy, practical selling point to highlight.

A primary suite that offers much more than just a place to sleep

Beyond its generous size, the Sage’s primary suite is designed to feel like a true retreat. The attached bath can potentially include double sinks, an oversized walk-in shower with a built-in bench, and plenty of natural light—the kind of setup that makes a morning routine feel less routine. Dual walk-in closets give each partner their own space, eliminating a common friction point, just one more reason this two-story floor plan lives comfortably day to day! Couples, buyers upgrading from a home where storage is a source of daily frustration, or anyone craving a calm, comfortable space to unwind at the end of the day will feel right at home here.

Smart, practical storage solutions

Large closet with cabinets and shelves

The Sage’s second floor includes extra-deep storage for cleaning supplies—no more crammed closets or dodging falling vacuums—plus a separate linen closet near the bedrooms. It’s one of those thoughtful touches buyers really appreciate once they’ve moved in (and often wish they’d had all along). Be sure to call it out for larger households or anyone who’s ever had to stash a broom in the coat closet.

The loft: a versatile space that can grow with your buyers’ families

Fully furnished living room

One of the Sage plan’s most flexible features is its upstairs loft. For families with teenagers, it’s the perfect spot for gaming or relaxing—keeping noise and screens out of the main living areas. For those without kids, it easily transforms into a second home office, a quiet reading nook, or a creative workspace. It’s a flexible area that can evolve as needs change—something today’s buyers really value in a two-story home.  Families with tweens or teens, remote workers who want a clear boundary between work and home life, and anyone who values adaptable living spaces will all see the appeal of having a loft.

Secondary bedrooms that feel intentional

Too often, extra bedrooms feel like an afterthought—but not in the Sage. Each secondary bedroom is thoughtfully designed for everyday comfort, with spacious layouts, well-balanced proportions, and walk-in closets. They’re just as functional for growing kids as they are for overnight guests. Buyers with large families or frequent out-of-town visitors will quickly recognize the difference these well-appointed rooms can make!

The centrally located laundry room

Laundry rooms that require a hike through the house are a small but constant frustration—easy to overlook during a showing, but hard to ignore on a typical Tuesday. The Sage’s upstairs laundry room is conveniently located near all bedrooms, making the routine more manageable and less marathon-like. It’s a smart feature for families with kids, frequent laundry-doers, or anyone who’s tired of hauling baskets from one end of the house to the other.

Optional finished basement: a home below the home

When buyers are ready for more space, the optional finished basement (available in select locations) really delivers. With airy nine-foot ceilings and large windows, it feels bright and inviting rather than below-grade. A spacious rec room offers a world of possibilities—perfect for movie nights, game days, or laid-back get-togethers with friends and family.

An optional beverage bar keeps go-to drinks close at hand, while a private suite with its own bedroom, bath, and walk-in closet adds extra flexibility for guests or multi-generational households. And don’t forget to point out the unfinished storage, which provides room for seasonal gear and overflow. This basement is ideal for multi-gen families, frequent hosts, teens seeking breathing room, or anyone planning for long-term versatility!

The Sage is a home with answers—to morning chaos, to clutter, to the question of where the teenagers are supposed to go. If your clients are comparing options, show them how this thoughtfully designed two-story floor plan can simplify daily life.
