Welcome to this beautiful home, a refined blend of modern comfort and Hill Country character. Designed for families who want space to breathe, gather, and grow, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers over 4,000 square feet of open, light-filled living with timeless curb appeal. Step inside and you’re greeted by a dramatic vaulted great room, large windows, and an effortless flow from the living area to the dining room and gourmet kitchen. The kitchen anchors the heart of the home with a generous island, walk-in pantry, and plenty of workspace for everyday cooking or weekend entertaining. The primary suite is tucked away for privacy, featuring a spa-style bath, oversized shower, and a spacious walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms are thoughtfully separated, giving everyone their own retreat. A dedicated home office makes working from home easy, while the optional media and game room layouts create places to unwind or entertain guests. Outdoor living is a highlight of Alpine Heights. The expansive rear deck is perfect for grilling, relaxing, or taking in evening views—an ideal extension of the indoor gathering spaces. With its clean lines, warm materials, and versatile layout, this home lives comfortably year-round and adapts beautifully to a wide range of settings, from suburban neighborhoods to acreage in the Texas Hill Country. Whether you’re hosting, working, or simply enjoying a quiet morning at home, this plan delivers the space, function, and style today’s homeowners want most.

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?

Founded in 2004, Houseplans works with hundreds of architects and designers to offer their plans at a fraction of the price of custom design. Houseplans has an "Excellent" rating on TrustPilot.
