This design boasts a floor plan with a width of less than 48'-0" wide and will fit on 'a lot' of lots. The facade leaves nothing to worry about though in terms of looking narrow, its has a commanding presence in spite of its efficiency. The entry to the home takes a unique turn to the left. Once inside the Foyer opens up to a grand stair which wraps around to an arched opening into the vaulted Family Room. A quiet Study upfront provides a private area which can serve as media or office. Upstairs there is walk-out access to the attic which can become a Media or Game Room in the future. There is also room to create a more luxurious bath/wic system for the secondary bedroom is required.

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.
