opportunities

English Other Real Estate
The phrase comes from here:
https://www.raywhite.com/qld/bridgeman-downs/1265864/

This is a home that would lend itself to a multitude of living and working opportunities, from a blended or combined family arrangement, parental accommodation and/or work from home business, all variables having choice of access to the home without compromising the main residence.

What does "opportunities" mean here? Does the word “opportunities” mean development/construction opportunities, or merely mean existing spaces’ use options (such as, use some versatile rooms as combined family arrangements, parental accommodation…) ?

Thank you for your help!

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Yvonne Gallagher

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

Opportunity means a time or set of circumstances that makes it possible to do something.

So, this home makes possible for you to live and work in many ways. These are blended or combined family arrangement, parental accommodation and/or work from home business.

It does not mean development/construction opportunities in that sense.
