Introducing Our Newest Two-Story Floor Plan: The Stratford

The wait is finally over! At Wayne Homes, we are thrilled to announce the official release of our newest floor plan, the Stratford! This incredible two-story design is a masterful blend of space, luxury, and thoughtful functionality, crafted for the modern family that values both entertaining and personal privacy. If you’ve been searching for a home that truly has it all—from a two-story great room to a private owner’s retreat—the Stratford is your dream realized.


Grand Scale, Custom Style

The Stratford immediately impresses with its sheer size and flexible design potential. Spanning an expansive 3,809 square feet, this home provides ample space for everyone, featuring 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms. It’s the perfect canvas for growing families.

Beyond the impressive statistics, the Stratford is designed to match your personal aesthetic. You can choose from five distinct and stunning exterior styles: the timeless Classic, the clean lines of Contemporary, the rustic charm of Farmhouse, the charm of Homestead, and the chic appeal of Smart Style. This variety ensures your new Wayne home will perfectly reflect your taste and stand out in your community.


An Entertainer’s Dream: The Heart of the Home

Step inside the main floor, and the open-concept design immediately takes your breath away. The kitchen is the undisputed center of the action, featuring a large island that serves as the perfect spot for meal prep, casual dining, and gathering with friends. This central hub flows seamlessly into the dining room and extends openly into the massive two-story great room, creating a bright, airy, and truly magnificent space perfect for hosting large holiday dinners or cozy family movie nights.

But with all its grandeur, the Stratford truly excels in delivering everyday convenience. Tucked just off the kitchen and easily accessed from the owner’s entry (which connects to the garage), you’ll find a generously sized walk-in pantry. Imagine unloading groceries directly from the car into the pantry—a feature that transforms a chore into an easier task. An even more ingenious detail is the dedicated housekeeping closet discreetly located off the owner’s entry. This specialized storage area is perfect for keeping vacuums, mops, cleaning supplies, and other household essentials neatly out of sight, yet easily accessible. It keeps messes and visual clutter at bay!


Flexible Spaces for Modern Life

The main floor is also designed with flexibility in mind. Located right off the foyer, you’ll find a dedicated office, providing a quiet, productive space for remote work or managing household affairs. Furthermore, a large, versatile flex room on the main floor offers endless possibilities—think a play area for toddlers, a formal sitting room, a home gym, or even a craft studio. The thoughtful placement of these spaces ensures you can customize your home to suit your family’s unique needs now and in the future, as needs change.


The Second Floor Sanctuary: Privacy Redefined

All of the bedrooms are located on the second floor, a design choice that maximizes family connectivity and main-floor entertaining space. However, the true genius of the Stratford’s upper level lies in its split-wing layout, guaranteeing maximum privacy for the homeowners.

The owner’s suite is an oasis completely separated from the secondary bedrooms on its own exclusive end of the second floor. This design provides the quiet escape you deserve. The suite itself is pure luxury, featuring dual walk-in closets—solving the age-old storage debate—and a luxurious ensuite bathroom. This spa-like retreat includes double sinks, a generous 60-inch shower, a linen closet, and a private, enclosed toilet area.


The Kids’ Zone: Smart & Shared Spaces

The three secondary bedrooms are situated on the opposite side of the second floor, creating a designated “kids’ or guest zone.” Right outside these bedrooms, a fantastic lounge space acts as a rec room or hang-out area for kids, teenagers, or visiting guests. All three secondary bedrooms boast walk-in closets—a rarity that is highly appreciated!

The most private of the secondary bedrooms, the rear secondary bedroom, is a perfect guest suite or room for an older child, as it includes its own ensuite bathroom in addition to a walk-in closet.

To make shared living easier, the main bathroom is a masterpiece of efficiency. Accessed from the lounge, it features a smart split layout where the double vanities and linen closet are in one portion, and the tub/shower and toilet are separated by a door in the second portion. This ingenious design allows multiple people to get ready simultaneously, making busy mornings a breeze!

Finally, the laundry room is exactly where it should be—a large, dedicated space on the second floor, conveniently located near all the bedrooms. Plus, a window on the front wall ensures this chore space is brightened by natural light.
