Why is it that alot of infills have the "dining or kitchen table area" at the front of the house? Is it suppose to flow better?
I find coming into a living room with a nice fireplace to flow better and have the kitchen off the back patio.

My kitchen is in the middle.
Just found it kind of different, partially when your garage is in the back and you opt for a mudroom, just seems odd to have a mudroom next to the living room. I think it flows better to have a living room with a nice fireplace the first thing you see when guests come over.

Yea kitchen is always in the middle but then you have the two sides, one being where you put your dining table and the other your living room.
So. Customize the home and get it built. Easy solution.
Dont be cheap and subdivide a lot into 2 houses.
Millennials can’t cook. Just build a dedicated little cubby system for skip the dishes.
More importantly, at what price is sharing a wall with someone considered asinine?
Having lived in this duplex infill for 13 years now, the trades offs are different than I expected. Noise from the other unit is nonexistent. But the design of the house becomes long and thin. Been working good, not in a hurry to move.
I don't make enough to live anywhere nicer.
