Mountain House Plan 286-00018

An increasingly popular floor plan is this rustic lodge style home and it is no wonder. This home has approximately 3,000 square feet of living space with four bedrooms, three and ½ baths and a three car garage. The design materials and architectural details are superb and offer a distinctive home value. The grand two story entrance features wood beam detail with stacked stone accents and a beautiful glass and wood door. The shingle siding, exposed rafters and courtyard entry provide a stunning backdrop to this rustic home. Of course, the proper setting for this home would be a tranquil lakefront property or peaceful, mountain view in keeping with the rustic theme. The covered front entrance leads into the spacious foyer which then spills into the dramatic great room. The great room is two storied with a stately fireplace, built-in cabinetry and features French door access to the rear covered porch. From this vantage point, you will see why a lake or mountain view is paramount when building this home. Along with the rear covered porch, there is a deck and screened porch where you could become lost in contemplative thought, take your morning coffee or enjoy a family meal. These three outdoor spaces comprise the length of the house and offer shade for the terrace level patio giving this home additional and usable outdoor space. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream and features a center island worktop, separate walk-in pantry and plenty of additional counter and cabinet space. The 17’x18’ keeping/dining room is large enough to enjoy family style meals and is open to the great room which makes this an excellent space for entertaining as well. A stunning wall of windows occupies the rear of the keeping room which allows for a picturesque view of the rear yard and porch. A small side deck is directly situated off this space as well giving another option to take your morning coffee. A large laundry and mud room is situated off the three car garage and provides an all important space in which to store your coats, boots and other gear. The master retreat is located on the main level of the home and features a 15’x18’ bedroom with private access to the rear deck with pergola. The master bath offers dual vanities, a separate shower, garden tub and compartmentalized toilet with an impressive walk-in closet situated at the rear of the bath.
The second floor of the home is ideal for children or guests; it features three additional bedrooms, two baths and a loft area. The loft is a perfect space to entertain close friends, do homework or it could function as a playroom. Running alongside the loft is a bridge which fans out to bedroom three and four on one side and bedroom two on the other. Bedroom two features an oversized bedroom with double closet and a private bath with additional linen closet. Bedrooms three and four also have a large footprint and closet and share a hall bath with dual vanities. This floor plan is large, versatile and provides you and your family with a beautiful home.
