Energy Efficient Traditional Style Home Plan With Sunroom and Outdoor Kitchen

Energy Efficient Traditional Style Home Plan 65974 | Total Living Area: 2500 SQ FT | 4 Bedrooms | 2.5 Bathrooms | 2 Car Garage | Dimensions: 65′ Wide x 84′ Deep

This home is a super energy saver with lots of options. Fine details such as arches over the windows and garage doors, gable accents, cupola and stone give this home an attractive appearance.

The plan is designed with a bonus future space above the garage that can be used as a bedroom, game room or office. The bonus space has a private bath and convenient entry from the main level.

An outdoor living room and kitchen is available as an option making this a perfect home for enjoying outdoor dining and entertainment.

The home is designed to capture free energy from the sun with the right orientation. The sun room allows one to be warm and cozy on those cold winter days, but it also serves as a passive solar collector to lower those heating bills. The home is fully energy efficient featuring 2×6 exterior walls and loads of other energy features that cost very little extra.

The master suite features include a cathedral ceiling, a glorious master bath with twin walk-in closets and an adjoining swing room that can be used as an office, den or nursery.

Two other secondary bedrooms have large walk-in closets and share a Jack & Jill bath. One of the bedrooms has a large built-in desk which is perfect for that diligent student.

The living room features a window wall, fireplace and 12′ ceilings. The dining room has cathedral ceilings and a china hutch niche. Typical ceiling heights are 10′ and 9’.

This striking and distinctive brick ranch with stone accents includes all the frills. From the inviting front porch to the screen porch and deck, this home provides dramatic spaces, luxurious appointments, and spacious living areas.

The bonus room and basement provide plenty of space for expansion, so this home is one that won’t soon be outgrown.

Listening to our customer’s requests, we’ve enlarged the garage to accommodate 3 cars.

Just beyond the porch is an entry with 11′ high ceilings.

To the left is the formal dining room which is open to the entry and family room.

Stairs to the bonus room are directly off the family room.

The spacious kitchen, with serving bar, is open to the family room which features a cozy corner fireplace.

New Farmhouse Home Plan With Bonus Room and 2-3 Car Garage

New Farmhouse Plan 82541

  • Total Living Area: 2269 SQ FT
  • Bedrooms: 3
  • Bathrooms: 2.5
  • Garage: 2-3 Bay
  • Dimensions: 75’6 Wide x 63’10 Deep

This charming farmhouse style house plan is sure to win your heart. This home plan gives you just over 2,200 square feet of living space with 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and 1 half bath. Unlike a traditional farmhouse house plan, this plan gives you a 2-car garage for your mechanical horses, and there is the option to expand to a 3-car garage size.

The outside of this home gives you lovely board and batten siding with stone accents and has a unique roof line that really ramps up the curb appeal.

On the inside of the plan, you will find a large great room that features a vaulted ceiling and exposed beams. Throw open the French doors and walk outside to the covered grilling porch. Steaks and hamburgers made at home are better than any restaurant!

The kitchen is designed for the chef who appreciates having plenty of elbow room. The pantry measures 8′ x 6′, so go ahead and wield your coupons at the store and buy in bulk because you will not lack for storage.

The kids will enjoy having a snack at the island breakfast bar after school. When it comes to the family meal, you will gather in the breakfast room or opt for something more formal in the dining room.

The master suite has plenty of space and is located on the rear of the house for privacy and includes everything on your wish list: double vanity, free-standing tub, separate shower, and private water closet.

Mom and Dad will also appreciate the door connecting their walk-in closet to the laundry room. Now you don’t have to lug a laundry basket through the house. Chores just became that much easier!

When it comes to the kids though, they will be coming from across the house with their laundry baskets. Teach them to do laundry when they are young, I always say! The kids will share a Jack and Jill bathroom.

When you are ready to expand the living space, finish the bonus room over the garage, and make it into a bedroom or game room. The bonus room will certainly add more value to a house that is already a seller’s dream when it comes to real estate!
