This elegant country porch style home is both classic and contemporary. From the inviting front porch to the screened porch and deck, this home provides dramatic spaces, luxurious appointments, and true flexibility. Its innovative design provides an abundance of living area, flexible multi-purpose rooms, and exciting features, all in an affordable 1992 square feet. The bonus room and optional basement provide areas for future expansion. Just beyond the porch, the entry is lit by the open dormer above. Directly ahead is a spacious octagonal shaped family room with a 19'-9" high ceiling. The rear wall holds a gas fireplace with an entertainment center above an arched clerestory window. French doors with transoms lead to a favorite area, the rear porch with its 6' spa and outdoor kitchenette. Columns provide an upscale touch to the 12'x14' dining room . The kitchen is spacious, open and provides a wonderful view of activities to the rear and in the family room. The unusual master suite is loaded with amenities such as a double step tray ceiling, direct access to the screened porch, a sitting room, luxurious bath, and "his and hers" walk-in closets. Flexible areas include a living room/bedroom 3 and media room/ guest room with access to a full bath. Unless otherwise noted, the ceilings are 9' high.

FAQs

Are designs on Houseplans ready to submit to my building department for permitting?

It depends on where you're building. Our plans contain enough information for a professional builder to construct your home, but your local government may require additional information before permitting. We strongly advise that you talk with your builder before you get started. If you are building for yourself, we recommend visiting your local building department to start your diligence. Read more here.

Can I make changes to a plan?

Absolutely! Our modification service allows you to customize almost anything - whether it's adding an extra garage bay, adjusting square footage, changing the roof pitch, or more, the plan modification service is a great value and can be completed quickly. Additionally, if you purchase an electronic plan set (PDF or CAD), you may have the option to make changes locally. CAD files offer the most flexibility for custom edits. Just let us know what you're thinking, and we’ll provide an estimate and timeframe to get started. Learn more here.

How much does a house cost to build?

Find out! Build costs vary based on the size of the home, materials used, and local rates for goods and labor. Our Cost to Build report is a great way to get some basic costs dialed in before you order your plans. Just plug in your postal code, select your desired construction quality, and we'll calculate for you.

Can I trust Houseplans?
