During the COVID-19 pandemic, our view of the world changed — and so did the ways in which we spent our time at home.

Spending months in lockdown brought many functional (and not so functional) aspects of a home to the attention of home owners. Not surprisingly, space is one of the main features that home buyers desire today, from more bedrooms and living areas to home offices, outdoor entertaining areas and land.

The prestige acre lifestyle market attracted significant interest throughout the pandemic and continues to be in high demand as upsizing families place lifestyle at the top of their criteria.
