Another thing about design and seniors. A lot of housing design for families is about privacy and storage - things like a separate den and multiple bathrooms. Not necessary, except for the guest room. My personal design is a central great room with computer office, entry way in front, laundry room, pantry off the back of it and then master suite on one side, guest suite on the other, no halls. Guest suite bathroom also available from great room by another door, so no need for redundant half bath. The entry to kitchen and to front door are at or near ground level so there is easy unloading of groceries or people in wheel chairs.
Craft and wood shop area would either be in a day light basement or his and hers outbuildings.
