Families are commissioning residences designed to evolve across generations.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Six<\/div>\n

Across the prime residential market, ultra-high-net-worth families are increasingly commissioning homes designed for future decades of shared family life. Rather than traditional second homes, these residences are places where grandparents, children, and grandchildren can gather under one roof.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a shift that is slowly reshaping the design brief for high-end property. Larger plots, customizable architecture, and lifestyle-led amenities are becoming central to new developments, allowing owners to tailor homes around the needs of an extended family.<\/p>\n

This approach also reflects a broader generational shift in wealth planning. According to the 2026 Sotheby\u2019s Luxury Outlook<\/em><\/a>, an estimated $84 trillion is expected to pass between generations in the coming decades, prompting many families to think more deliberately about long-term assets and legacy.<\/p>\n

Cameron Avery, real estate sales director at Rocco Forte Hotels, explains: \u201cWe are seeing buyers using the generous plot sizes to create homes that cater to multigenerational families.<\/p>\n

\u201cCompared with many resort developments, these notably larger plots provide the space required to design homes that comfortably accommodate evolving family structures all under one roof.\u201d So, what does luxury real estate built for generations actually look like?<\/p>\n

At Verdura Resort<\/a>, private villas are being conceived with precisely this kind of adaptability in mind. Set across 568 acres of Mediterranean coastline on Sicily\u2019s southwest coast, the estate offers expansive plots.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe off-plan villas offer buyers the opportunity to personalize finishes and adapt layouts to suit their individual needs, a level of flexibility that is increasingly valued in the luxury residential market,\u201d says Avery.<\/p>\n

Interiors are being adapted accordingly, with layouts incorporating children\u2019s playrooms, shared living areas, and guest suites, while outdoor spaces often include padel courts, football pitches, and large entertaining terraces.<\/p>\n

Each villa sits within the wider Verdura Resort<\/a> estate, which includes championship golf courses, a private beach, and the 4,000-sq-metre Irene Forte Spa. Off-plan villas begin at \u20ac5,210,000 (approx. $6m), offering owners the chance to create what is effectively a private residence within a fully-realized Mediterranean resort.<\/p>\n

In France\u2019s Loire Valley, the concept of multigenerational living is being taken even further. Set deep within the ancient woodland of Les Bordes Estate, a private residence within the Six Senses estate offers close to 2,000 sq metres of living space on a secluded three-hectare plot.<\/p>\n

Priced at \u20ac40m (approx. $46m), the residence centers around eight en-suite bedrooms, alongside a series of spaces designed for both family life and entertaining \u2013 including a cinema, wine cellar, games room, and golf simulator.<\/p>\n

Wellness is a defining feature of the estate. The property includes a private longevity suite with cryotherapy, high-oxygen training, and a spa, alongside indoor and outdoor pools and a swimmable lake set within landscaped grounds.<\/p>\n

The scale of the residence allows it to function as a private retreat. Multiple kitchens, guest suites, and staff quarters make it possible to host extended stays, while large reception spaces have been designed for family gatherings and celebrations.<\/p>\n

For many families, this kind of residence is designed to anchor family life over time. As Avery notes, \u201cpersonalization sits at the core and is shaped around a long-term vision of supporting multigenerational living as families grow and evolve,\u201d he says.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
