Inspired by the Low Country tradition of the Coastal South, this 1-story design blends elegance, comfort, and functionality, featuring a breezy porch overlooking a shaded courtyard, and effortless indoor-outdoor living. The covered Entry Porch, nestled between two wings of the home, welcomes you inside. Step through the front door into a beautiful Foyer, where guests may flow seamlessly to the private sleeping quarters to the right, the Formal Dining and gourmet Kitchen to the left, or the Great Room straight ahead. Anchored by a cozy fireplace, the Great Room is a breathtaking space with large doors inviting natural light, and access to the Screened Porch. Beyond the screened porch, the Courtyard awaits with the option of a Patio or Deck for outdoor grilling and delight! The Kitchen is a cook’s dream with ample counter space and a Walk-in Pantry. It features a spacious island with a snacking counter and is conveniently adjacent to the Formal Dining for easy serving. A cozy Breakfast nook offers space for casual sips and bites with friends and family. For ease in unloading after shopping, the Kitchen area offers direct access to the three-car side-load Garage. The Main Suite is a retreat for ultimate relaxation, featuring a spacious sleeping area, an en-suite Bath with a whirlpool tub, separate shower, and walk-in Wardrobe. Down the hall, Bedrooms 2 and 3 offer ample space with closet storage. Bedroom 4 can serve alternately as either a home office or study. A well-appointed hall Bathroom and Utility Room complete the wing. This design captures the spirit of Low-Country Southern living. Deep overhangs provide sun shelter, a private courtyard for outdoor enjoyment, an open plan for ready cross ventilation, and a layout that fosters connection and comfort. You’ll find yourself at home here, where memories are made with friends and family.

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.
