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…
  • Working with a narrow lot — the design is just 30 feet wide, fitting challenging lot dimensions
  • Want a recreation room for flexible family uses — dedicated space on upper level serves multiple purposes
  • Prefer two-story living with upper-level master retreat — second-floor suite provides privacy and separation
  • Need efficient organization — walk-in pantry, second-floor laundry, and 3,068 square feet offer functionality without excessive size
  • Value outdoor entertaining — 244-square-foot rear porch plus strong indoor-outdoor connection
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need a main-floor master suite — the master is located on the second floor
  • Prefer single-level living — this is a two-story plan with stairs to bedrooms and recreation room
  • Want a wide footprint for a large lot — the design requires only 30 feet of width, not suited for broad expanses
  • Need more than four bedrooms for a large family — this plan offers three secondary bedrooms plus master suite

About this plan

Modern Prairie Design with Recreational Versatility

This refined modern prairie house plan combines clean contemporary styling with the horizontal emphasis characteristic of prairie-inspired architecture. Offering 3,068 square feet of heated living space across two thoughtfully designed levels, the residence balances dramatic open-concept interiors with practical family-oriented functionality. Measuring just 30 feet wide by 71 feet 4 inches deep, the home establishes a sleek footprint particularly well suited for narrow residential lots while maintaining an expansive and comfortable interior.

The main level is organized around open-concept gathering areas anchored by a great room with fireplace flowing seamlessly into the kitchen and dining spaces. A large central island provides generous workspace and casual seating, while an adjacent walk-in pantry contributes valuable storage. A formal dining room maintains visual continuity with the open layout. A welcoming foyer and powder room enhance daily convenience, while a spacious 244-square-foot rear porch extends living outdoors. Nine-foot ceilings on both floors contribute to the home's spacious atmosphere.

The second floor features a master suite positioned as a private retreat with walk-in closet and refined master bathroom with dual vanity sinks. Three secondary bedrooms provide comfortable accommodations for family or guests, while a centrally located laundry room adds practical efficiency. A dedicated recreation room expands the home's versatility, serving as a media lounge, gaming area, fitness space, or secondary gathering area depending on household needs.

  • Four bedrooms and 2.5 baths
  • Only 30 feet wide — ideal for narrow lots
  • Dedicated recreation room for flexible uses
  • Second-floor master suite with walk-in closet
  • Walk-in pantry and central kitchen island
  • 244-square-foot rear porch for outdoor entertaining
