Selecting a House Plan

Building on family property, we knew this must be the "forever" home. It must fit our lifestyle now, with children, as empty-nesters, and with wheelchairs. For us, the perfect floor plan would have everything on the main level, a bathroom attached to each bedroom, and plenty of outdoor living space to enjoy the mountain view. 

We fell in love with the exterior styling of Don Gardner's Clarkson house plan, but we were not sure we would use two great rooms. Instead, we decided to build Don Gardner's Birchwood house plan with exterior features from the Clarkson rendering. We will make a few changes to the floor plan, including extending the master bedroom, adding a deck, and changing the e-space to a powder room. We will also have a full, unfinished basement for plenty of storage space.

Today, we purchased the vellum plans. Since Don Gardner is based in Greenville, we were able to pick them up from their office in downtown. We look forward to seeing the progress from house plans to a home!
