										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The cost to buy a home is on the rise, but that doesn’t mean you can’t find affordable house prices in Austin. Our communities offer a range of floor plans to suit any family and any budget. Could one of these four options be the dream home that doesn’t break the bank?</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Jackson | The Enclave at Leander Station</strong></h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1315" src="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Jackson_Floorplan.jpg" alt="Drawing of The Enclave at Leander Station’s Jackson floor plan as an example of affordable house prices in Austin." width="800" height="777" srcset="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Jackson_Floorplan.jpg 800w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Jackson_Floorplan-300x291.jpg 300w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Jackson_Floorplan-768x746.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></p>
<p>Austin has beautiful historic homes but all that maintenance may not be your style. If you’re searching for a brand-new home, The Enclave at Leander Station provides the coziness of older neighborhoods with the added benefit of updated floor plans and customizable builds. This growing community is conveniently located between 183 and 2243 with easy access to downtown Austin. Homes start in the low $200,000’s and range up to the $243,490s for 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom homes.</p>
<p>If you’re a starter family or empty nesters looking for house prices in Austin that fall on the lower end of the spectrum, you’ll find everything you need in the <a href="https://www.mymilestone.com/north-austin-cedar-park/the-enclave-at-leander-station/floorplans/jackson">Jackson</a> floor plan. Starting at $214,490, this home will provide you 1,500 square feet of efficient space for all your needs. If you’re in the mood to splurge, you can add on a study or covered patio. And let’s not forget the quaint covered porch where you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the Hill Country!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Bedford | Larkspur</strong></h2>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1316" src="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Bedford_Floorplan_Vista.jpg" alt="Drawing of Larkspur’s Bedford floor plan as an example of affordable house prices in Austin." width="800" height="648" srcset="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Bedford_Floorplan_Vista.jpg 800w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Bedford_Floorplan_Vista-300x243.jpg 300w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Bedford_Floorplan_Vista-768x622.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></p>
<p>It’s not just the booming job market that draws homebuyers to Austin, it’s also the excellent schools. Austin is a great place to raise a family and Larkspur is a family-oriented community that pairs the natural beauty of Texas with modern luxuries. Residents can explore the walking trails and relax in open fields in the morning and enjoy the resort-style pool and clubhouse in the afternoon. The on-site elementary school turns neighbors into family and friends. Larkspur is Phase III just opened and house prices start in the low at $200,000’s.</p>
<p>The <a href="https://www.mymilestone.com/north-austin-cedar-park/larkspur/floorplans/bedford">Bedford</a> floor plan is a great option for families.

If your family may grow or you love to entertain guests, there are options for adding a fourth bedroom and a half bath. The 1,693 square-foot Bedford floor plan typically ranges in the mid to upper $200s.</p>

<p>Choosing a new home comes with an almost overwhelming variety of options, from paint colors and carpeting to fixtures and appliances. So, how do you get everything you want and nothing you don&#8217;t? It all starts with knowing how to find a floor plan that fits your family’s lifestyle and routine.</p>
<p>At MileStone Community Builders, we make it our mission to ensure every family finds the home that suits their needs. That&#8217;s why we offer floor plans for any family to call home. The first step toward finding the right floor plan is to consider where your family spends the most time. Does everyone want to congregate in the family room? Do you love entertaining guests? Or does everyone like to have their own space? Whatever the case may be, we have a floor plan for you.</p>
<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Family first</strong></h1>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1175" src="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/plans-1.jpg" alt="A drawing of a home’s layout to help people find a floor plan in Austin, Texas" width="800" height="695" srcset="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/plans-1.jpg 800w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/plans-1-300x261.jpg 300w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/plans-1-768x667.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></p>
<p>For the family that values spending quality time together, the <a href="https://www.mymilestone.com/north-austin-cedar-park/trento/floorplans/wentworth">Wentworth</a> floor plan fits the bill. The Wentworth is an open-concept floor plan with a joined kitchen, family room and breakfast nook that provide a place where families get to connect and enjoy each other’s company. Also, the dining room is perfect for sit-down family dinners, and the optional extended covered patio provides a great setting for cookouts and get-togethers of all kinds. This floor plan includes 2,565 feet of space with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 to 3.5 baths.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong>The entertainers</strong></h1>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1176" src="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/plans-2.jpg" alt="Floor plan drawing of a two-story home with additional options." width="800" height="983" srcset="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/plans-2.jpg 800w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/plans-2-244x300.jpg 244w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/plans-2-768x944.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></p>
<p>If you want to live in the home that everyone in the neighborhood loves to visit, then consider the <a href="https://www.mymilestone.com/north-austin-cedar-park/whitestone-landing/floorplans/Conchos">Conchos</a> floor plan. This entertainment-oriented floor plan includes an upstairs media room and game room. These are great places to play, watch the big game or simply enjoy each other&#8217;s company. Downstairs, the open-concept kitchen and family room are perfect for hosting birthday parties, holiday festivities or gatherings of any kind. The Conchos floor plan includes 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, and measures in at 2,512 square feet.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Plenty of personal space</strong></h1>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1177" src="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/plans-3.jpg" alt=" Floor plan drawing of a two-story home with many additional options." width="800" height="966" srcset="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/plans-3.jpg 800w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/plans-3-248x300.jpg 248w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/plans-3-768x927.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></p>
<p>Sometimes, everyone just needs their own personal space, and that&#8217;s where the <a href="https://www.mymilestone.com/north-austin-cedar-park/larkspur/floorplans/Glendale">Glendale</a> floor plan excels. With 4 to 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths and a spacious 3,241 square feet, this floor plan gives the whole family plenty of elbow room. However, the kitchen, family room and breakfast nook can still bring people together. The Glendale includes a game room, media room, loft, study and extra garage space as well. So, there’s ample room for everybody to find an area and make it their own.</p>
<p>Once you decide on a floor plan, you&#8217;ll be amazed at how quickly your other choices fall into place. <a href="https://www.mymilestone.com/contact-us">Contact us</a> at MileStone Community Builders today to find a floor plan that&#8217;s just right for your family!</p>

The kitchen features modern appliances and amenities, and the 2-car garage (third car optional) gives you lots of room to spread out. The master suite includes a spacious walk-in closet. Also, you can customize the master bath with a luxurious shower and freestanding tub. Outside, you&#8217;ll find a breezy covered patio and front porch.</p>
<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Tucson</strong></h1>

					<description><![CDATA[<p>Wondering if you should be searching for open-concept homes? Check out the various benefits you’ll enjoy with an open-concept floor plan.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Open-concept homes eliminate the restrictions of a highly structured living space by giving you the ability to customize based on your own unique style and needs. All the while, you can enjoy a living area that is spacious, airy and connected. Houses with open floor plans have exploded in popularity during recent years, and with good reason.</p>
<p>In truth, open-concept homes are nothing new. The design has been around since the late 19th century and is often attributed to architectural mastermind Frank Lloyd Wright. But these homes have only come into high demand over the past few years as their many benefits became increasingly well-known, including:</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1123" src="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-1.jpg" alt="Sunlight shines through the light blue dining room, living room and kitchen of this open-concept home." width="820" height="353" srcset="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-1.jpg 820w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-1-300x129.jpg 300w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-1-768x331.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px" /></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>1. Interconnected space</strong></h2>
<p>Specific designs vary widely, but the defining characteristic of an open floor plan is that there are minimal walls separating spaces. Most open-concept homes feature a large central area that serves as both a living room and a dining room, with an adjoining kitchen that is mostly open to the living area. This creates a spacious atmosphere that is warm, inviting, comfortable and great for entertaining.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1124" src="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-2.jpg" alt="Living room opens up to dining room and kitchen area to show an example of open-concept homes." width="820" height="358" srcset="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-2.jpg 820w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-2-300x131.jpg 300w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-2-768x335.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px" /></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>2. More natural light</strong></h2>
<p>Many of the walls in an open-concept home are either reduced to half-walls or eliminated completely. This means natural light can reach deeper into your home, allowing you to fully enjoy the sun&#8217;s light. Many open-concept homes take this a step further with large windows, windowed walls and large glass doors leading outside.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1125" src="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-3.jpg" alt="Walls with gray paint surround the living room of an open-concept home as it leads into a dining room and then the kitchen." width="820" height="364" srcset="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-3.jpg 820w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-3-300x133.jpg 300w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-3-768x341.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px" /></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>3. Family togetherness</strong></h2>
<p>By design, walls are made to keep people apart. That&#8217;s why a home with an open floor plan is ideal for fostering family togetherness, with a dining area that&#8217;s great for sit-down dinners and lots of open space that keeps family members from being sealed off.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1126" src="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-4.jpg" alt="Hardwood floors of a blank open-concept home lead into the kitchen." width="820" height="356" srcset="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-4.jpg 820w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-4-300x130.jpg 300w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-4-768x333.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px" /></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>4. Options to customize</strong></h2>
<p>The large, central room in an open-concept home is a blank slate with which to do as you please. If you want to create a large dining room, expand the living room or set aside a corner for a home office, you&#8217;re free to do so. Many homeowners arrange the furniture and design the lighting to differentiate the spaces within the central area, giving the impression of different rooms without actual walls.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1127" src="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-5.jpg" alt="Fuchsia accent wall shows off a vibrant living room of an open-concept home." width="820" height="365" srcset="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-5.jpg 820w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-5-300x134.jpg 300w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-5-768x342.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px" /></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>5. Enhanced safety</strong></h2>
<p>If you have children in your household, you understand the importance of safety. An open-concept house offers unrestricted sight lines within the main room, making it easier to keep an eye on little ones at all times.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1128" src="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-6.jpg" alt="Open-concept home shows living room and bar area in front of the dining room and kitchen area." width="820" height="352" srcset="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-6.jpg 820w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-6-300x129.jpg 300w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-6-768x330.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px" /></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>6. More usable space</strong></h2>
<p>Open-concept homes feel more spacious because of their airy, open design. The fact that they they don&#8217;t waste space on hallways and unnecessary walls also helps. That allows you to get the absolute maximum possible use out of your square footage and ensure that no part of your home goes to waste.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1129" src="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-7.jpg" alt="Living room with contemporary furniture with kitchen and dining room in the background." width="820" height="362" srcset="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-7.jpg 820w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-7-300x132.jpg 300w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/open-concept-7-768x339.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 820px) 100vw, 820px" /></p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;"><strong>7. Improved energy efficiency</strong></h2>
<p>In a home with an open floor plan, you may start to see that your energy bills are noticeably lower. That&#8217;s because this type of floor plan is easier to heat and cool, making open-concept homes more energy-efficient. When it&#8217;s hot outside, a single main area is much easier to keep cool than lots of little rooms. Conversely, when it&#8217;s cold outside, the natural sunlight from large, south-facing windows creates a &#8220;greenhouse&#8221; effect that may allow you to leave your furnace off.</p>

<p>No two homes are alike, just like no two families are alike. That can make searching for a new home an exciting but daunting experience. At MileStone, we&#8217;re committed to creating floor plans for families of every type. Whether you&#8217;re a young couple, an expanding family or a pair of empty-nesters, our communities offer just what you&#8217;re looking for, with exciting new floor plans like these:</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1074" src="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/floor-plan-family-1.jpg" alt="MileStone Community Builders’ Bronte floor plan for families." width="800" height="658" srcset="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/floor-plan-family-1.jpg 800w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/floor-plan-family-1-300x247.jpg 300w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/floor-plan-family-1-768x632.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></p>
<h1 style="text-align: center;"><strong>For singles and young couples: Bronte</strong></h1>
<p>At a cozy 1,532 square feet, the <a href="https://www.mymilestone.com/downtown-south-austin/smithfield/floorplans/bronte">Bronte floor plan</a> is just right for singles and young couples. Also, the price point makes it an ideal starter home. The open, airy kitchen and dining room are great for having guests over, and the front porch and back patio create a relaxed, inviting atmosphere.</p>
<p>Upstairs you&#8217;ll find a spacious master bedroom along with a loft and 2 additional bedrooms, either of which would make a great studio, home office, game room or anything else your heart desires.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1075" src="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/floor-plan-family-2.jpg" alt="MileStone Community Builders’ Bedford floor plan for families." width="800" height="648" srcset="https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/floor-plan-family-2.jpg 800w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/floor-plan-family-2-300x243.jpg 300w, https://www.mymilestone.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/floor-plan-family-2-768x622.jpg 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px" /></p>

Four to 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths ensure that everybody has their space. Also, the wide-open architecture provides a blank slate to turn into your dream family home.</p>
<p>The kitchen includes a cozy breakfast nook, and the separate dining room is perfect for sit-down dinners. The foyer and family room are similarly spacious, along with a downstairs master suite, study and 2-car garage (3-car optional). Upstairs you&#8217;ll find all the additional bedrooms. You&#8217;ll also find a pair of extra rooms that would make great rec and media rooms.</p>
