Budget Friendly House Plans with Pictures
Two of Our Best Budget Friendly House Plans with Pictures
Small homes are gaining in popularity today for a number of reasons: people want to stay within a set building budget; they don't want to care for a larger home; they don't need a large living space, and many other reasons. Donald A. Gardner, Architects, understands today's trends and knows that you're looking for budget friendly house plans that fit your lifestyle. Here we'll show you two such plans, The Cartwright (Plan 801) and The Primrose (Plan 1316). Each offers 3 BR, 2-2.5 BA, in one story, at about 1800 sq. ft. of living space, expandable with a bonus room to a total of over 2000 sq. ft. The Cartwright is an attractive country style home and The Primrose is designed in the Craftsman style. Each features special details that make it a terrific choice for your new home.
Distinctive 3 Bedroom Budget Friendly Craftsman Home
The Primrose is one of dozens of budget friendly Craftsman house plans offered by Don Gardner. This home features the classic Craftsman style along with today's modern amenities, to give you a truly special new home design. It offers 3 BR, 2 BA and 1818 sq.ft. of finished living space. We invite you to view all of this small house plan's pictures; especially the ones that show the kitchen/dining/great room space. See how well it all flows together- you'll really be able to get a feel for how this house will look when built!
That kitchen/dining/great room area offers so much flexibility in this home. It's such a bright space that will be a delight to come home to every night, and a source of pride when you entertain guests. See yourself preparing dinner and watching over the kids as they play a game in the great room. One of the other children is sitting at the dining table with her homework, and she asks you for help – you can easily hear her, and you stroll over to lend a hand. All of this togetherness is easy in this open concept home.
To complete this open concept design, you'll note the inviting screen porch, located off the great room. It features four skylights and a cathedral ceiling. Take the fun outdoors, to the patio and enjoy some relaxation. All of this is possible with this small house plan that offers big living possibilities. When day is done, the three bedrooms await – they're located on opposite ends of the home for privacy. The master suite offers a beautiful bedroom, walk-in shower and separate tub, plus a walk-in closet. One bedroom off the foyer would work well as a study; and the remaining bedroom, with its adjacent bath, would make a great guest room.
Small Country Home Offers Big Possibilities
The Cartwright offers a beautiful and functional floor plan that makes this small home one you'll want to consider building. Take a look at this budget friendly house plan's pictures and you'll see how the open common area makes its 1882 finished sq.ft. live even larger. Kitchen-breakfast room-porch is a delight, with an easy flow through this space. Cook a hearty meal and dine in the breakfast room, out on the porch on a sunny day, or for more formal times, go into the dining room.
The great room/kitchen space is a perfect spot for fun family times. Cozy up to the fireplace and enjoy the beauty of the great room's cathedral ceiling. Stop into the kitchen for a bite, and never be out of sight of that hit movie playing in the great room. Everyone is going to love the way these two rooms are conveniently designed.
Bedrooms are located on each end of the home, to ensure privacy. The master suite features separate tub and shower areas, and a walk-in closet. The vaulted ceiling in the master bedroom adds an air of charm and character.
Porches at the front and rear of the home allow for enjoyment of the outdoors, and don't forget the 359 sq.ft. bonus room that you can optionally build – it would provide an excellent expansion area for additional bedrooms, or a hobby room for you or the kids.
