Building your own home does not necessarily mean you need something extravagant. At Donald A. Gardner Architects, we understand that sometimes, you just want a simple and cozy place to call home. We offer a number of simple house plans that have all the features and modern amenities you need and want, and with a simplified design that meets your budget and tastes.

Simple home plans work perfectly for many homeowners. Some choose these to be their primary residence, spending less on the size of their home so they can invest more in the quality of the lifestyle they create inside. Others choose these when they downsize during retirement. Still, others will opt for simple house plans to serve as a secondary residence or a vacation home. Simple floor plans also make a great starter home, and when you build from scratch you can build in some of the elements you need and want to personalize the space.

We have an extensive collection of plans for those in the market for a simple home design. From classic two-stories to country chic, our simple house plans include most architectural styles and tastes. Take the Tanglewood for instance, this one-story cottage fits an open floor plan and three bedrooms in just under 1500 square feet. The Justine is a two-story modern farmhouse design with the master bedroom downstairs and two bedrooms upstairs. A bonus room offers unfinished square footage for a later expansion.

We also offer modification services that can take any of our simple floor plans and transform them into exactly what you need and want. Contact our modification team to begin transforming a home plan into your dream home.
