Question: What is the material on the areas of exterior that are absent of rock? Could that material easily be substituted with brick? If so, is there adequate support to use brick on the areas above the roof line?
Answer: We show a wainscot of stone/masonry all the way around this home. The higher portion of the wall is siding/shingle which is easily replaced with masonry/brick as there is already a masonry ledge. The portions above the eave lines can potentially be masonry too, but would need additional support in the way of steel angles and columns.

Question: I won't be ready to build for another 1-2 yrs. However, I already own a fully wooded lot. I am trying to plan for clearing the lot. Would it be possible for me to get more detailed external dimensions of this plan with the 3-car option? I want to be able to lay it out in a CAD tool.
Answer: Without purchasing the plans, at least a bid set, the only info we can make available to you is the overall dimensions which are 86’-2” x 73’-10”. We do have CAD files available for purchase as well. If you have a tree survey in CAD, you can send that to us and we can put the house on your survey.

Question: My question was with respect to outside dimensions of house (not individual rooms). The house plan is not rectangular, so its not clear what the total width/depth lengths relate to. Need outside dimensions to determine if plan will fit on a particular lot.

Question: Want to order this plan with a 3-car garage but do not want to change the layout of the interior of the house and do not want to add any additional heated space! Want to setback the third garage about 3 feet as it is for motorcycles! Also, we do not like the dormers on the front of the house! Are they just for looks or part of the roof rafter system?
Answer: 3 car version is available for $150 with no changes to the interior, the garage is offset 2’ shorter in depth on the back alongside the other two. You can eliminate the dormers, they are just decorative.

Question: How much does the metal roof add to the cost?
Answer: Roofing is a small percentage of a home’s total cost. Composition shingles can run anywhere from $40 –$100/square(100 square feet of roof surface), metal roofing can be as high as $250/square. This home has, I’m guessing, 35-40 squares. So the difference in cost would be in the range of $5 – 6,000.00 give or take.

Question: The pictures for this plan are very nice on line. Do you have any of the rest of the house? Bedrooms, bathrooms, etc.

Question: Do you have any additional photos or real photos of this plan in place. From viewing the photos that I am able to open on your site, the rooms appear smaller than the dimensions. I hope you are able to get the other photos to open on your site. I like this plan but wish the laundry room larger like an additonal room connecting from garage to master closet and leaving the existing laundry room as a hallway/mudroom/drop zone.
Answer: Don’t have any photos yet. The dimensions are inside, clear dimensions. Its possible to create an additional space for a Laundry Rm and leave the existing one as a Mud Rm. Would need to stretch the Garage and expand it into the Garage. David Wiggins

Question: What is the estimated cost and sq ft of a finished basement for this plan? What is the cost estimate of the pool dipicted in this plan?
Answer: I can tell you that the footage of the Basement mirrors the main level, so about 2106 SF (figured to the outside of wall). As far as the cost of the basement and pool, you will need to ask a builder/contractor, we don't have that specific info.. David Wiggins
