Plan Description
4 Bedroom Contemporary House Plan
From the outside, this home plan is all modern. It is contemporary, to be precise, with elements of the beautiful Prairie style. Inside, you will find modern amenities combined with traditional spaces to give you and your family everything you could need. The den, for instance, is a great place to relax and enjoy the quiet. Built in shelving holds your favorite books, tempting you to settle in for a few hours so that you can read in peace. Similarly, the garage features a shop area so that you have a great space to work on hobbies. Perhaps you have always dreamed of taking up woodworking or a similar activity. This home gives you the opportunity to go for it. When it comes to day to day chores, the handy space just off the dining area, which contains the pantry and laundry room, will help to streamline your routine. The pantry keeps bulky kitchen gadgets, dry good and cleaning supplies within easy reach of the kitchen, while the laundry room gives you an out of the way place to sort, wash and fold laundry. Then there is the open living space. At Thanksgiving, you will gather your family here to enjoy the food and festive atmosphere. An L shaped counter and island gives you all of the space you need to pile up dishes as you bake pies, cook the turkey and prepare all of the sides. Then, you will enjoy the feast with your family in the dining area, all the while admiring the woodsy landscape of your backyard. Before too long, everyone will be absolutely stuffed and the dishes will be cleared. Now it is time to settle into the great room, wrapped up in blankets, enjoying the warmth of the fire as you and your kids watch TV. After a long day of celebration, you will be looking forward to the comforts of the master suite. Take a quick shower before bed or have a warm bath. Then settle in for the night and drift off to sleep as you watch the stars sparkling in the sky. If you hosted guests, you can give them a place to stay in the bonus room, which can easily be turned into a guest bedroom. Additionally, there are two other bedrooms for your children, one with a walk in closet and shelving, the other with a closet behind sliding doors. These rooms are the places that your children will spend lazy summer afternoons, playing with toys. One day, when they are older, they will have fond memories of the games they played and the sleepovers they had in these bedrooms.What's Included?
Exterior Elevations
In addition to the front exterior, your drawing set will include drawings of the rear and sides of your house as well. These drawings give notes on exterior materials and finishes. Particular attention is given to cornice detail, brick and stone accents, or other finish items that make your home unique.
Note: Sections and Elevations depict the default foundation, regardless of optional foundation page choices
Foundation Plan
The foundation page dimensions, concrete walls, footings, pads, posts, beams, bearing walls, and any stepped foundation information along with any retaining wall info (schematic only). A typical wall section for the home is also usually included on this page (if not, it is elsewhere in your plan set, as space allows). If your plan features a poured concrete slab rather than a basement or crawlspace, the foundation page shows footings and details for the slab, and includes plumbing locations.
Floor Plan(s)
Exterior and interior wall framing, and windows/doors are dimensioned. Room sizes are indicated and any beams, posts and structural bearing points are called out. The floorplans include an electrical legend, and electrical fittings, lights and outlets are shown. Floor Plans will also indicate cross–section details (provided on the sections page) and show any special framing details applicable to the design. Cabinet elevations are included for kitchen and bathrooms; some designs feature cabinet elevations for design–related built–ins too.
Building Sections
Building sections show changes in floor, ceiling, or roof height, and the relationship of one level to another. Our section pages also show how the stairs are calculated (if there are some!) and depict roof and foundation members. We try and draw sections to show the most useful information — choosing locations where there are elements you or your contractor might need clarification on.
Note: Sections and Elevations depict the default foundation, regardless of optional foundation page choices
Roof Plan
Roof framing or truss directions are shown, slope directions are indicated and structural members are sized and called out if applicable. The gravity loads used to calculate the rafters, beams and posts are indicated , and we also show gutters, downspouts, and any roof venting required for your home.
Notes and Details Page(s)
Your home comes detailed to meet the requirements of the latest adopted version of the ‘International Residential Code’, and our notes and details pages outline all the elements applicable to the design of your home. Compliance with further standards may need to be incorporated into your plan set, depending the requirements of your building department — these are usually done locally.
