#ALP-02LD House Plan

Quite often I find that my older clients can usually most afford to build the larger homes but they do not want a two-story plan. Keeping that in mind, we designed this sprawling but graceful one-story plan with every imaginable luxury. The front porch is stately and a full 8' wide to accommodate porch swings and rocking chairs. The unusual shaped family room is flanked by formal living and dining spaces and all have 12' high ceilings. Adding to the already enormous size kitchen, the adjacent butler's pantry includes lots of shelving and room for a freezer. A built-in hutch and wet bar are conveniently located in the eating area. The master suite is not only a giant size but the unusual shape provides for a sitting area with a fireplace. A large portion of the rear deck is covered and it can be accessed from the eating area, master sitting area, family room, or sunroom. If you are like my family, you never seem to have enough storage. I provided a storage solution with a permanent but hidden stairwell that leads to a wealth of attic storage. There is also deck and garage storage located off the 3-car garage.
