In fact, home shoppers recently surveyed said they would be willing to sacrifice some space from a larger house in order to get a bigger yard.<\/p>\n<p>More than half of 1,000 buyers recently surveyed\u2014or 56 percent\u2014said they\u2019d be willing to sacrifice square footage in a home for a great outdoor space. The survey was conducted by Wakefield Research on behalf of Taylor Morrison, a national home builder.<\/p>\n<p>Survey respondents also rated the home\u2019s distance to neighboring homes as the most important exterior feature. Forty-eight percent of millennials and 53 percent of non-millennials believe the extra buffer is important, even more so than other curb appeal elements like siding, driveway styles, exterior paint colors, and roofing finishes. Women wanted outdoor space more than men (62 percent of women surveyed say they prefer less home square footage for a larger yard, compared to 51 percent of men).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDemand for more elaborate exterior space continues to rise, and blending indoor-outdoor living to address customer preferences is critical to our success,\u201d\u00a0says\u00a0Sheryl Palmer, Taylor Morrison\u2019s CEO. Palmer notes that the findings come at a time when land prices are escalating and local approvals have forced smaller lot sizes.<\/p>\n<p>In response, Taylor Morrison has been ramping up\u00a0its properties: adding\u00a0outdoor living rooms, floor-to-ceiling retractable glass walls that open to the backyard, and matching tile flooring that extends from the home\u2019s interior to exterior for a seamless flow to the outdoor space.<\/p>\n<p>Survey respondents were asked what they would spend an extra $10,000 to $15,000 on in their new home. Outdoor living items topped the list, edging out upgraded cabinets and kitchen islands.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOutdoor living is no longer an afterthought to a home\u2019s construction,\u201d\u00a0says\u00a0Charlie Enochs, Taylor Morrison area president for the central region.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: 2017 Taylor Morrison Consumer Survey<a href=\"http:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/homebuyers-increasingly-willing-to-sacrifice-home-square-footage-to-gain-outdoor-space-300504285.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Buyers Want Bigger Yards Over Bigger Homes &nbsp; &nbsp; A property that offers a great outdoor space is taking a higher priority among home buyers.
