HOME PLAN OF THE WEEK
RELEASE DATE: lan. 23 - lan. 29, 2016
PLAN NUMBER 2-2-753
A STRATEGY FOR FAMILY GROWTH
The plans for this attractive two-
bedroom home include a strategy for
family growth — a future den or third
bedroom on the ground floor, together
with a future rec-room with a wet bar.
At ground level, the covered entry —
always a boon in bad weather — leads
through a door with a window and side-
lights into a foyer with a handy bench
and coat closet to the right. To the left
is the U-shaped stairway to the second
or main floor.
The double garage is large enough to
accommodate a work bench, and enjoys
access to the foyer.
On the upper floor, the great room is
front and centre, overlooking the front
garden, with a gas fireplace. Adjacent
is the dining room, which boasts on
optional built-in buffet that will provide
serving and storage space.
At the back of the home is the kitchen,
with an efficient U-shaped counter
configuration and a doorway to a
covered patio that overlooks the back
garden. The kitchen is separated from
the dining room by a low counter, so the
cook will never feel isolated. A pantry will
provide extra room for cans and jars.
The laundry room includes a broom
closet, as well as a side-by-side washer
and dryer.
The master suite, at the front of
the home, enjoys a large window
overlooking the front garden, as well as
smaller, higher windows along the side.
The en -suite includes double basins and
a soaker tub, as well as a shower stall.
The walk-in closet is roomy enough to
accommodate clothing and accessories.
The second bedroom looks out to the
back garden and is near the second
bathroom. The linen closet is close by.
On the ground floor, the future third
bedroom has windows that look out to
the side garden, as well as access to
the foyer and the future rec-room and
aroughed-in three-piece bathroom.
Exterior finishes include wooden
shingles, brick accents, a front door with
side -lights, painted woodwork and a
decorative garage door.
This home measures 40 feet wide and
40 feet deep, for a total of 1,260 square
feet of space on the main, or second,
floor. Ceilings rise to nine feet throughout
the second floor.
