Description
This traditional style home is detailed with decorative wood brackets, small paned windows, and a dormer that graces the front of the house. The simple footprint is 46' wide, making it appealing for those with smaller lots.
The covered porch is framed with square columns, which are detailed with decorative brackets and turned balusters at the railing. After entering the foyer space, a stairwell is to the right, and a formal dining room is to the left. As you continue down the hall to the great room, you pass a powder room on one side and the kitchen on the other. The great room has space for a breakfast area, and there is a door that accesses the rear. A raised breakfast bar separates the great room from the kitchen, which has a walk–in pantry. To the right of the great room is a small hall that leads to a coat closet, a two–car garage, a laundry area, and the master bedroom suite. The master bedroom features a large walk–in closet, and the bathroom has both a shower and a tub.
Upstairs there are two more bedrooms, a full bath, and access to the attic for storage. One of the bedrooms has a walk–in closet, and the other has a dormer that looks out to the front.
Foundation Info
This house was originally designed to have a crawlspace foundation. However, if you prefer a basement or slab foundation, these are fairly simple and inexpensive changes that your builder can often make for you.
Please Note
This house was originally designed for a couple in Charlotte, North Carolina, who (understandably) do not want another house just like theirs built nearby. If you're planning to build within a 50–mile radius of downtown Charlotte, the designer needs to approve the location before he'll grant a copyright release allowing you to legally build the house. Just give us the address or location of your property, via email or phone –– and we'll get back to you right away.
Electronic Format
These plans were drawn using a well–known and highly respected architectural design software program called SoftPlan (version 13). This software can export the same files in .dwg format, so they can also be modified by anyone who uses AutoCAD, which is nearly universal. The CD for this plan includes the files in both SoftPlan and AutoCAD–ready .dwg, as well as in .pdf for easy viewing on your home or office computer.
