[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I figure that it will be less expensive in the long run to have a house that works for us as we age. In the mean time, I could use it for my parents.
I am trying to find a house in MD with such accommodations, but no such luck. I will probably have to add onto an existing home, but I still need the right size yard to do this.
I want handicapped everything with the hopes that I will be able to die there. 
Has anyone tried to get this done?

I have a handicapped child and have been looking for houses with ANY bedrooms on the first floor for several years.  They are few and far between and small and atrocious.  Generally when they are advertised they turn out to be bedrooms that are actually in the basement or all purpose rooms.  Or small ranch houses with three bedrooms in very few square feet.

The best bet appears to be retrofitting, working with an architect, even installing elevators.  If you are serious, I can put you in touch with friends that have done this, working with architects that specialize in handicapped retrofitting.[/quote]
