Dual primary suites are a great option for people with a multi-generational lifestyle. They are wonderful solutions for retired parents or grandparents living with their working relatives. Additionally, they are also an excellent option for older children as they prepare for adulthood.
A primary suite often contains a private bathroom and other amenities that can give adult residents the space, independence, and privacy they need. Unfortunately, dual primary bedrooms are becoming a rare luxury and home feature. Nevertheless, it’s a popular type of suite to look for when shopping for a new home and a common want when building your own house. But why are they so desirable? The answers are many: People enjoy more space in their home and often enjoy uncommon features in a floor plan, helping it to feel uniquely their own. Yet there are many other benefits that dual primary suites offer in floor plans.
Let’s discuss what a dual primary bedroom is and what the additional space brings to the home that makes it such a desired feature in a house plan.
What is a Dual Primary Suite?
A dual primary suite is the same as a dual primary bedroom, which is a move away from an older term, “master suite.” Two primary bedrooms are exactly as described, two primary suites instead of one bedroom and a smaller bedroom or several smaller ones with one primary suite for the homeowner.
A home that features a primary suite sounds luxurious, with images of walk-in closets and private attached bathrooms, the spacious room for the owner of the house. Having two of them provides double the luxury feel and an array of advantages for those needing more space for their lifestyle and living arrangements.
The Dual Suite Floor Plan
Now that we’ve discussed what a dual primary suite is, here are its features that makes them so desirable in a home:
- A lot more square footage
- Luxury bathroom options, such as dual vanities and spacious showers or soaking tubs
- Dual walk-in closets
These features depend on the homeowner and plans, of course, but are typical benefits people seek when wanting dual primary suites. As two primary bedrooms are so uncommon that you could be forgiven for saying rare, people jump to remodeling their home or picking through the market. There is a third option that is a better solution to the dual primary suite scarcity than investing in a remodel or holding out hope of finding one: build the house yourself:
A Solution to Multi-generational Living
Part of the reason for the growing interest in dual primary suites is the rise in multi-generational households. Having a second primary suite is a perfect solution for having your parents or grandparents live in your home without them sacrificing privacy or space while also keeping them close by for safety.
Personal Space for Older Kids
As most parents know, at some point kids want more space and privacy. With a second primary suite on the other end of the house, you’re able to give it to them when it’s appropriate to do so. It’s a great solution for when kids come back from school, are saving up for a home of their own, or an array of other situations that bring the adult kids back to the house.

Co-Living with Friends
Co-living allows friends to live together under their own terms of arrangement. A house with dual primary suites allows friends to have separate bedrooms, private bathrooms, and other amenities to live independently together. This is vital, especially for people with different work and sleep schedules, to achieve spacious living without disrupting each other’s routines.
