Buyers might not exactly admit it, but more are sleeping in separate bedrooms and probably do prefer listings that make it happen. It’s a sleep thing, as opposed to a relationship thing. As much as 1/4 of married couples sleep in separate beds.
As many as 1 in 4 Married Couples Want Separate Bedrooms
However, only 10% actually admit they have separate bedrooms, in accordance with a survey from the National Sleep Foundation. The trend is nicknamed a “sleep divorce.”
In a poll of 2,000 Americans, up to 50 % said they’d would like to sleep alone as opposed to with their significant other, as reported by a survey by Slumber Cloud, a bedding company. About one in five said their partner was the most significant problem preventing them from getting a good night’s sleep.
But just because couples would rather sleep in separate bedrooms doesn’t mean their relationship is at risk.
“Couples often feel pressured to be in the same bedroom because that is what our culture deems as healthy for a good relationship,” says Corrin Voeller, couples counselor and owner of Prosper Therapy in Minnesota “But when they let go of those expectations and embrace that this is what they’re doing in order to have a healthy relationship, separate bedrooms can be the perfect solution.”
Separate bedrooms is surely an attractive choice for those with a snoring partner or one who would rather stay awake later at night.
In real estate, dual master suites are really a growing alternative for couples who sleep apart.
