  • Based on our popular Red Cottage plan - see house plan 18222BE - this more rustic version has stout stone columns supporting a beautiful trussed covered entry.

  • Wide hallways and doorways make for easy traffic flow, even for those that need Barrier Free Access.

  • The owners' suite has patio access and the handsome master bath has an extra spacious shower.
  • The bonus level upstairs delivers a vaulted living area plus two bedrooms, one with a sitting area behind pocket doors, adding a potential 1,032 sq. ft. to this awesome house plan.

Building Code

Because of the wide range of requirements throughout states and municipalities, it is possible that the plans may not have all of the information required by your building department. If this is the case, we recommend hiring a local design professional or engineer who can assist bringing the plans up to your local building code.

Engineering

Some states require that a licensed architect or engineer review and stamp the plans. If this is the case where you will be building, a local professional will be able to assist you.

Important Extras: Sold separately

Readable Reverse Plans

The layout is reversed and all the writing is corrected so you can read the writing. With this option, all of your sets will appear the way you want to build the home. This option is available for an additional charge.

Mirror Reverse Plans

The lettering and dimensions will read backwards, so you will need to order at least one set non-reversed as a reference copy.
