<\/a><\/p>\nHousing needs have fundamentally changed as a result of the pandemic. Flexible living spaces that can transition from classroom to playroom or home office to home gym are more important than ever. Fortunately, M\/I Homes<\/a> offers a wide selection of floorplans with flex rooms that homeowners can use as dedicated or multipurpose spaces.<\/span><\/p>\n Magnolia Ridge<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Sienna<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Mustang Crossing<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Tavola<\/span><\/a> are among the Houston-area M\/I Homes communities that feature these functional layouts. Some of the homes are move-in ready and come with free stainless steel appliances and paid closing costs offered through <\/span>M\/I Financial<\/span><\/a> if they\u2019re able to close before year-end.<\/span><\/p>\n 335 Jewett Meadow Drive<\/span><\/a> is a charming three-bedroom, two-bathroom bungalow in the <\/span>Magnolia Ridge<\/span><\/a> community.

Inspired by country farmhouse exteriors, <\/span>8711 Azalea Crossing Court<\/span><\/a> comes complete with a second-floor game room and powder room for entertaining.
