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…
  • Plan to age in place — first-floor master suite with laundry on main level
  • Working with a narrow lot — the design is just 39 ft wide and 39 ft deep
  • Want a first-floor master suite for single-level living (first-floor master suite)
  • Love covered outdoor living (wraparound porch on all sides)
  • Seeking an affordable, efficient home with room to expand (1,648 sf with loft and bonus room)
  • Want a chef kitchen with a walk-in pantry (kitchen island, walk-in pantry)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need more than two bedrooms — this plan has 2 bedrooms
  • Want a single-story layout — this is a two-story plan with a loft upstairs
  • Need a garage — this plan has no garage bays
  • Require a large footprint — this design is just 39 ft wide and 39 ft deep
  • Want a main-floor laundry and master suite with a second-floor bedroom — the master is on the main floor but secondary bedroom is upstairs

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

The Tamarack is a charming 1,648 sq ft farmhouse that offers an efficient and elegant solution for families seeking the convenience of a focused two-bedroom footprint. This two-story design is built for those who value an open and airy environment, featuring a grand wraparound porch that surrounds the living areas to provide exceptional outdoor relaxation space.

Inside, the open-concept core centers on a grand living room that flows naturally into a gourmet island kitchen equipped with a walk-in pantry. The first-floor master suite provides a private retreat on the main level, featuring single-level convenience with easy access to the laundry room, while the second floor hosts a versatile loft and a large unfinished bonus room for future expansion. Functional details like a dedicated mudroom and a robust structural design that ensures the home remains organized and professional. Practicality is baked into the layout with energy-efficient 2x6 wall framing and a sturdy crawl space foundation, ensuring a long-lasting and well-insulated environment for year-round use.

Constructed with classic country details and a welcoming front porch, the Tamarack is as attractive as it is functional. Its compact dimensions and high utility make it a valuable addition to any neighborhood, offering the perfect balance of traditional style and modern comfort.
