Featured European House Plan:
European houses usually have steep roofs, subtly flared curves at the eaves and are faced with stucco and stone. Typically, the roof comes down to the windows. The second floor often is in the roof or, as we know it, the attic.
The hallmark of this spacious, stately design is its distinctive French flair. Inside, archways and built-ins add beauty and utility.
The two-story foyer with its angled staircase views the huge fireplaced great room beyond. A formal dining room and a private study with built-ins flank the foyer. Ten-foot ceilings are standard on the first floor; nine-foot ceilings on the second.
A utility room off the kitchen receives laundry from a chute.
The master suite features a bayed sitting area, his and her walk-in closets, and a deluxe bath with two vanities, a shower and a step-up whirlpool tub set off by half columns.
Upstairs, bedrooms two and three share a bath, while bedroom four has its own bath. An oversized game room with attic access completes the second floor.
Foundation options: basement, slab or crawl space. Specify when ordering.
