My parents house has the master down stairs, but they bought it when my brother and I were older. They love it. I'm not sure if they would feel differently if they had young kids in the home though.
Master down, secondary bedrooms up is the preferred configuration where I am, to the point that houses with all bedrooms up are worth less and sit on the market longer.
I don't mind it but I'm also used to it. DD has been upstairs since she was nearly 2. Before that, we lived in a one story. It would have been very inconvenient with a baby but has not been an issue for us since we've lived here. We have just recently stopped using a monitor at age 4, simply because sound doesn't travel well between our room and hers.
