Default Re: Solving floor plan issues

We have the Gardenia - the split floor plan is great, and allows the pocket door to be shut creating almost an apartment for guests or our son who will be living with us awhile.
The master bedroom suite, separate his & her closets, hallway to the MBR, entry hallway, huge kitchen/LR/DR and split design swayed us to that model over all the others. Lack of a closet in the den we solved with a dresser. Otherwise, the den and 2nd BR aren't huge, but it didn't matter to us - we'll be sleeping in the other 1/2 of the house and our guests will be mildly inconvenienced.
We have the attic above the garage and like gracie, we didn't bring the snow blower, boots, coats etc. It's really plenty big for us!
