Kids and grandparents live under one roof as the 'sandwich generation' cares for both
"Multigenerational living is not a setback. Learning how to build smarter, live connected, and design for what actually matters. It took me a while to figure that out. We created a second master suite in our multigen home - because privacy and family can coexist. You don't need a 'someday house.' You just need a setup that works for your real life right now,"
"Now 31 years later, some Gen Xers are nearing retirement. Those born between 1965 and 1980 are now the " sandwich generation." They're in a hinge position, caring for both their parents and their children. And as the last generation to gain a foothold in the housing market, some of those are using that buying power to transition into age-friendly housing and configure family units into multigenerational living arrangements."
Generation X, born 1965–1980, now occupies sandwich-generation roles caring for aging parents and children. As the last generation to gain a foothold in the housing market, some Gen X homeowners are using buying power to transition into age-friendly housing and configure multigenerational living arrangements. Sutton resident Jessica Bruno established a multigenerational household 14 years ago and now, with fiancé Jim Lenihan, has modified a new house to create individualized spaces and plans to build a multigenerational home in 2026. Bruno reaches and advises over 45,000 Instagram followers and emphasizes balancing privacy with family in home design.
