Plan Description

This attractive farm house is an inviting, yet simple design. Its siding and brick exterior has classic appeal. Space, great flexibility and cost-conscious design, are the strong points of this appealing home. Just beyond the lovely front porch, you're greeted by a large family room with vaulted ceiling with two dormer windows. Bookcases and an entertainment center surround the brick fireplace. Off the family room is a highly functional kitchen serving a breakfast and dining room. The hallway creates a private access to an office/bedroom 4 and the master suite, with a luxurious bath and large his/hers walk-in closet. Lower level rooms without vaults or trays have 9' high ceilings. The upper level consists of 2 secondary bedrooms each having direct access to the bath. The loft can serve as a recreation area or 5th bedroom if needed. Upper level rooms have 8' high ceilings. The basement level provides even more room for expansion with its future recreation room, bath, and 2 bedrooms.
