PLAN 45-627

If you have live-in parents, a frequent guest, or a boomerang child, this could be the perfect plan for you. A second bedroom suite is tucked into a secluded corner of the home and perfect to serve any of those needs, and it is even great for a second owner's suite. The suite has sloped ceilings with exposed beams, private access to the rear porch and a kitchenette. Your parent(s) or boomerang child can park their car in the third bay of the garage and access their suite via the mudroom and rear porch without disturbing the main house residence. The idea is to provide a very private, fully equipped space for those live-in guests so that you, the owner, never give up your privacy. The other owner’s suite is just as lush and conveniently located just steps away from the garage, kitchen or utility – a real step-saving arrangement. The owner’s suite also has its very own porch isolated for complete privacy. Both of the main level bedroom suites have luxurious baths compete with twin vanities, separate showers, soaking tubs and private toilets. The living spaces are open, airy and well lighted with volume ceilings in the living room. The oversized utility room has a fold-up table, laundry sink, and freezer in addition to the washer and dryer. A large butler’s pantry is also accessible from the utility and convenient to the kitchen. A rocking-chair-sized wraparound front porch welcomes your guests and beckons them into the large formal foyer, where their eyes will be drawn to the rear landscape via the strong sightline from the front glass door to the rear glass area. The living room has built-ins, a wood-burning fireplace, and sloped ceilings. The gourmet kitchen is fully appointed and has an enormous island with a raised bar. There is also a small desk for menu planning. To round out the main level, an oversized 3 car garage has abundant storage neatly tucked behind double doors. There is also a space for garbage can storage with convenient access to the outside. Entry into the house is via a mudroom with a laundry sink and there is even a stop-n-drop area with coat hooks, bulletin board and key hooks. A flared stairwell tucked into a secluded area leads to the upper level where there are two large bedrooms, each with walk-in closets. The balcony hall can be open to the main level or walled in for total privacy of the upper level – your choice. The classic modern farmhouse exterior is designed to be low maintenance if using vinyl board and batt siding and the lower pitched roof is budget friendly too.
