Another inspired by our popular Lodge series, this custom home with our standard Beamed Exterior Wall System will be built in southern Connecticut. The main level is about 2000 sq. ft., and the front of the house has a central entry with a hallway to the garage on the right, and a full bath and a small room designed as a study on the left. To the left rear is the kitchen, dining and pantry, and to the right is a master bedroom suite and office. All of these main level areas are under a flat Beamed Mid-Floor System. The center section of the main level is the great room under a cathedral Plaster and Accent Beam Roof System. The upstairs under a cathedral Plaster and Accent Beam Roof System is about 1050 sq. ft. of living space with a full bath; two additional bedrooms flank the central loft area, which looks down onto the living space below. A 2040 basement (not included) with a partial walk-out under the kitchen is designed for utilities and storage, a music room, and a multi-use open area.
We can customize our designs to better fit your needs, and even start a new design from scratch. Garages, walk-out/daylight basements, porches, decks, etc. can be added or removed. Our design service is included as part of the material package price; we do not have a separate architectural or design fee for creating or customizing your plan.
The lower package price assumes more drywall finishes, while the upper price assumes more exposed timbers and wood ceiling finishes. Select the wall system, mid-floor system, and roof system(s) you would like for your project based on aesthetics, budget, and practicality. Our package price can be reduced by removing any of the exterior finish materials that we typically supply (siding/ trim, roof shingles, windows/doors). Note that when shipping outside the northeast almost all packages have those items removed, as shipping them long distances doesn't usually make sense.
Depending on framing options you select, the price could be lower or higher. Pricing is expected to be valid through 2024, but may need to change if there are significant changes in material costs before then (currently an extremely volatile market). Walkout basements and/or garages can typically be added to any home, but are not included in our initial price (whether drawn on plans or not). Prices are based on engineering requirements of up to 90 mile per hour wind speed, up to 65 pound snow load, and low seismic activity zones. Our packages can be adapted for higher ratings; this may result in a higher price. Pricing errors on our site are rare, but a price change for your package may be required if a mistake is found.
