Is this the right plan for you?

Most regret comes from buying a plan that doesn't fit your life. Skim this before you decide.

Great fit if you…
  • Frequently host guests or multi-generational family—dedicated guest suite in basement (3 bedrooms upstairs, plus guest suite)
  • Love entertaining—media room with wet bar in basement; open island kitchen and covered porches on main floor
  • Work from home—dedicated home office or study space
  • Want a second-floor master suite—master bedroom upstairs with walk-in closet and double vanity (second-floor laundry nearby)
  • Need 4+ bedrooms—4 bedrooms total with upstairs bedrooms plus basement guest suite
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Want a single-story layout—this is a two-story plan with stairs between floors
  • Need all living on one level—master and three regular bedrooms are upstairs, guest suite in basement
  • Want minimal basement—basement is a substantial 807 sq ft with guest suite and media room
