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…
  • Need workshop or storage space for 3+ vehicles or hobby projects — 1,310 sq ft rear-load garage
  • Want an RV bay or dedicated parking — three-bay garage designed for specialized storage
  • Seeking two full bathrooms in a compact home — this plan includes two baths for one bedroom
  • Prefer laundry on the second floor near the bedroom — direct laundry access from master suite
  • Looking for a loft or bonus space — loft/balcony adds flexible living area
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need multiple bedrooms for a family — this plan has only one bedroom
  • Require a main-floor master suite — the owner's suite is on the second floor
  • Want a single-story layout — this is a two-story design with stairs to living areas
  • Prefer a front-facing garage — the garage is rear-load
  • Need a sprawling footprint — at 1,144 sq ft, this is a compact design

This one-bedroom residence features a massive three-bay rear-load garage and a solid slab foundation, establishing a prominent architectural presence that is perfect for car enthusiasts.
