\"Striking
Striking exteriors and open floorplans are enticing homebuyers to Solana. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPre-World War 2, most homes used a very basic floorplan in which the main hallway served as a kind of artery that provided access to branch rooms serving specific functions,\u201d said The Spruce<\/a>. \u201cThe kitchen was usually placed at the back of the house, because it was seen as a service area and not used for socializing at all. A rear door off the kitchen allowed for food deliveries or as an entrance for staff. Entertainment until the 1950s was a fairly formal affair conducted in other areas of the house\u2014served by a kitchen that was strictly off limits to guests.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These days, homebuyers want great flow and uninterrupted sightlines, and buyers in the San Fernando Valley<\/a> are loving the way Solana expresses their new-home dream<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Plan One at Solana features 5 bedrooms and 3 baths in 2,429 of\nwell-designed living space, priced from $748,580. You\u2019ll love\nthe massive chef\u2019s kitchen with the expansive island that offers great prep\nspace and an abundance of storage. This incredible space opens directly onto\nboth the dining room and great rooms, so you can move freely from one space to\nanother. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check out the huge pantry, tons of counter space, and the way the sink\nis centered under the window, bringing in natural light and offering a view to\nthe outdoors. Also on this level is a convenient bedroom and full bath, the\nperfect place for an older child, a multigenerational living arrangement, or\nfor when you\u2019re ready to welcome guests back into your home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upstairs are three spacious family bedrooms, one with its own walk-in\ncloset, as well as a shared bath, and the luxe owner\u2019s suite. This sumptuous\nspace features a glorious master bath with dual vanities, walk-in shower with\nseparate soaking tub, and a massive walk-in closet. The laundry room is also on\nthis level, so there\u2019s no need to trek up and down stairs with baskets of\nclothes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Solana\u2019s Plan Two<\/a> reveals up to 5 bedrooms and 3 baths in 2,794 square feet of beautifully realized living space, priced from $742,380. The gourmet kitchen, dining room, and great room form one spectacular space that allows you to be part of the action no matter where you are. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A huge wall of uninterrupted cabinetry topped by sleek countertops\nanchors the kitchen, with the sink artfully placed in the large island,\ncreating the best view in the house. A first-floor bedroom and full bath just\ninside the entry on this floor is just the type of guest space you\u2019re looking\nfor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Upstairs, each expansive bedroom has its own walk-in closet and the owner\u2019s\nsuite feels like an upscale retreat with its spa bath featuring a walk-in\nshower, separate tub, and huge walk-in closet. The large laundry room is\nperfectly placed for convenience. Don\u2019t need so many bedrooms? Choose the bonus\nroom option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
