Let\u2019s say you have multiple families living under one roof Full House-style or a spouse who snores like a freight train. Who gets dibs on the primary suite, and who will be relegated to the couch, guest bedroom, or makeshift attic quarters?<\/p>\n

If your home has \u201cdual master suites,\u201d everyone wins with their own equally private and comfortable oasis just for them. Also known as dual primary suites, multiple master suites, and dual owner’s suites, not only do these provide privacy and independence, but they can also command a higher resale value<\/a>.<\/p>\n

But what is a dual master suite exactly, and should it be on your dream home wish list?<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

The \u2018suite\u2019 life: Double the privacy, comforts, and luxuries of a master<\/h2>\n

A home with dual master suites comes with two (\u201cdual\u2033) separate and spacious primary bedrooms with their own en-suite bathrooms, usually at opposite sides of the home. You can expect each master suite to have the following<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Lots of square footage<\/strong>
\nYou should have no trouble fitting your California king-size bed in a primary-suite bedroom. The average bedroom in a home is 132 square feet<\/a>, but dual primary suites range anywhere from 400 to 650 square feet.<\/p>\n

Dual vanities or sink stations<\/strong>
\nPlenty of counter space and enough room to get ready in the morning eases the stress of daily life \u2014 that\u2019s what master suite living is all about.<\/p>\n

Luxurious shower\/bath<\/strong>
\nSpacious primary suite bathrooms include a nice modern shower, soaking tub, or both, depending on the size of the room.<\/p>\n

Primary showers are usually 4-by-6 feet<\/a> in size and will include some kind of specialty spray head; some suites may also include a bench or steam shower feature. A luxury tub isn\u2019t a must-have but appeals to buyers who enjoy a relaxing weekly soak.<\/p>\n

His and hers walk-in closet<\/strong>
\nDual primary suites feature closets that organizers dream of. With a minimum of 7 by 10 square feet<\/a>, there\u2019s plenty of space for his and hers.<\/p>\n

Small appliances<\/strong>
\nA newer emerging feature within the dual owner\u2019s suite trend is the inclusion of small appliances<\/a> in the bedroom that make day-to-day life more convenient, such as a microwave, mini-fridge, and coffee bar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
