Plan 034H-0151
Unapologetically French Provincial, this luxury home plan’s hip rooflines stand majestically over its stucco and board-and-batten sheathing. Indicative of the style, a sentinel of second-story arched windows breaks through the cornice into the roof while the main-floor windows and shutters extend to ground level. Carriage-style garage doors are fitting on the recessed garage, which appears as more of a historic or Old World outbuilding than an appendage. The sophisticated floor plan is wrought with tasteful detail. The foyer introduces dramatic views of a classy circular staircase and the formal living and dining rooms. A rustic and cozy theme in both rooms is accomplished through criss-cross ceiling beams, one forming square patterns and one forming triangular shapes. The kitchen, breakfast nook, and family room join together at the rear of the plan. Strategically positioned, the kitchen is close to many key areas of the floor plan: it is near the laundry room and mudroom, which connect to the garage wing; it accesses a butler’s pantry that services the formal dining room, and it is open to the breakfast nook and family room, so conversations can flow and children easily can be supervised. Two main-level suites are on opposite ends of the floor plan ensuring a measure of privacy. The master suite is at the rear, off a hallway that passes the quiet study. Bookshelves line the corridor that leads into the bedroom. Double doors open to the decadent bath showcasing a splashy spa tub, walk-in shower, dual vanities, and a grand walk-in closet. A self-contained mother’s suite is at the front of the plan. Here, a handy kitchenette allows the guest to prepare light dishes, if desired. A full bath and front courtyard adjoin the suite delivering splendidly comfortable accommodations. Three secondary bedrooms on the upper level revolve around an open study/sitting loft off the central staircase, the perfect place for a computer station for the kids or quiet reading before bed. Each bedroom delights in immediate bath access and a large closet. For the health conscious, start the day off right with a morning workout in the exercise room. Brimming with lavish amenities, this two-story European house plan will be the highlight of any affluent neighborhood.
