[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I personally dislike having a bathroom on the main floor. Unless your house is huge, I can always hear the flush of the toilet (if not other "sounds"). This is the worst when entertaining. I personally love having bathrooms both half-a-flight up and half-a-flight down. It's not inconvenient and offers so much more privacy.

Split levels where we live (in upper NW) are expensive, just like other housing stock. What I've found is that people live a lot longer in split-levels than in colonials. I think that because 6 steps are so much easier- and less scary and dangerous- to navigate when you're older, people live in them well into their 80s. In our neighborhood with several splits, people hold onto their houses well into their 80s.

IMHO the best thing about splits is that they tend to be designed with large, open windows. Modern design focuses heavily on maximizing natural light, which colonials do not. [/quote]

Yeah most colonials don’t have an away part for private bath unless it’s had a long multi room addition[/quote]
