A multigenerational home gives parents, grandparents or adult children their own private space under the same roof. In South Florida that usually means one of two things: a new Lennar Next Gen® "home within a home" with an attached private suite, or a resale home with a guest house or in-law suite. This page covers both, with live MLS listings updated every 15 minutes.
Multigenerational living keeps growing: according to the Pew Research Center, 22% of Americans lived in multigenerational households in 2024, up from 16% in 2020.
A Next Gen® home has a private suite attached to the main house, typically with its own entrance, bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette and living area. Family members can live independently while staying close. Lennar's Next Gen plans generally run from about 2,100 to 3,900+ square feet.

Buying new construction? Builders sell from their own sales centers, and most require your agent to register you on your first visit. Call Susan before you tour a model so she can represent you at no extra cost.
Weston is fully built out, so there is no new Next Gen construction inside the city. Many Weston resale homes still work well for extended families, especially larger single-story homes and homes with a first-floor bedroom suite or guest quarters in Weston Hills, The Landings, Savanna and Isles at Weston. Estate communities such as Windmill Ranch Estates and Estates of Swan Lake sometimes offer detached guest houses.

The listings below are homes for sale with a guest house in Weston, Davie, Southwest Ranches, Parkland, Cooper City, Pembroke Pines, Plantation and Coral Springs. Many in-law suites are not tagged in the MLS, so ask Susan for a custom list that includes them.
A Next Gen suite is attached to the main home and shares the roof and lot, usually with its own entrance, kitchenette and bathroom. A guest house is a separate detached building, more common on large estate lots in Southwest Ranches, Davie and Parkland.
