About this plan

The wraparound porch gives this 1,472-square-foot house plan a strong connection to the outdoors, extending across 519 square feet of covered exterior space. A 1.5-story arrangement places the primary living spaces on the first floor while the upper level adds a compact loft and additional 332 square feet of heated area.

Inside, the open floor plan centers circulation around a two-story great room, where the fireplace creates a vertical focal point and helps connect the main gathering spaces. The kitchen incorporates an eating bar for casual seating, while the formal dining room provides a more defined setting for meals. A first-floor master suite includes a walk-in closet, and the upper level accommodates the loft with an optional fourth bedroom configuration.

Outdoor living is distributed around the wraparound porch, with a grilling porch adding a dedicated exterior area for cooking and entertaining. The house can be built over a slab, crawl space, basement, or daylight basement foundation, offering flexibility for different sites. 👉 View floor plans, photos, and pricing to get started today.
