House Plans with Open Concept

Open concept house plans are among the most popular and requested floor plans available today. The openness of these floor plans helps create spaces that are great for both entertaining or just hanging out with the family. By choosing a plan that is open and combines spaces such as kitchen, living and dining, it helps a family feel together even though each person may be spread among the spaces.

In addition, an open concept home plan can make your home feel larger, even if the square footage is modest. By eliminating doorways and widening the passages to dining and living areas, you obtain a sense of spaciousness that divided rooms lack. In this way, even a small, more affordable house plan can offer the comfort and roominess you seek. Add some ceiling height to these rooms and the home looks and feels even larger. The Drake, for example, is a 2494 square foot home with an open concept kitchen that is open to both the great room and the dining room, making it feel as one cohesive space. In addition, it has a cathedral ceiling in the great room that adds volume and makes the space feel even larger. A more cozy alternative is The Ironwood house plan. With its large kitchen and breakfast area open to the great room and the formal dining, this can be every entertainer's dream! Due to different ceiling treatments, size and shapes of the rooms, each room has its own sense of space even with the open concept floor plan.
