Cat makes a great point that the house should be designed for the occupant. I once read that when downsizing, which we will be doing, start your plans by evaluating the space you live in now. Note which rooms get the most activity, most hours of the day! Here office, kitchen, den, front and back decks, bedrooms and bath. We seldom use the dinning room or the formal living room, or 2 extra bedrooms (well except for an occasional guest and for storage!! LOL).
Also thinking ahead at that time in life when mobility may be a challenge, so some 36" doorways to at least one bedroom, and also entrances, and roll in shower. Go from there that's what we will do.
Good luck Oink think you/ve got a good start going for you!
