House Plan chp-53713 is storybook beautiful in its English Manor Tudor style with hipped roof, hipped gables, decorative half-timbering, brick veneer, stucco and cedar shake siding. Looking at the front left exterior, you will notice a row of Gothic style windows with pointed arches that mimic the narrow brick entryway. Tudor Revival style became popular all over America in the late 19th century. These homes are loved by people who reject traditional architecture and opt for something with more character and old-world charm. Parking and lawn equipment storage are simple and easy thanks to the large garage with 3-car dimensions, and family members can enter the home this way for quick access to the rear hall and laundry room.
The open floor plan downstairs is highlighted by a spectacular vaulted great room with large fireplace surrounded by built-in cabinets. Tall windows allow plenty of light inside and a beautiful view of the back yard. There’s plenty more room for entertaining with a gourmet kitchen. A generous island includes the cook top and plenty of space for meal preparation and casual family breakfasts before work and school. After a formal dinner, invite your guests to walk through the atrium and admire the perfumed wisteria growing from the trellis- details such as these really leave a lasting impression and add to the romantic appeal of your home.
