This plan was built and is one of our featured Building Stories. BLOG: Building A Modern Ranch House The Long House plan by architect Nicholas Lee celebrates easy indoor-outdoor living. It's inspired by the modern ranch house designs of regional modern architect William Wurster. The layout is straightforward: rooms line up like cars on a train, from the spacious great room/kitchen at one end, past the office, bathroom, bedroom, and laundry to the master suite at the other end. Each room opens to the covered gallery running the length of the house. This gallery is wide enough for sitting and outdoor dining, and doubles as the entrance porch beside the kitchen. See also Plan 508-2, with an indoor-outdoor lanai instead of the long porch.

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.
