Retirement House Plans

Retirement house plans come in a full range of styles to let you select the ideal home plan you want to spend your leisure years in. You have reached retirement age and that once full house is now filled with many unneeded rooms and unnecessary square footage. It may be time to consider downsizing to a one-story house plan that is more manageable. Something without stairs to navigate or extra rooms to have to clean.

You have reached retirement age and that once full house is now filled with many unneeded rooms and unnecessary square footage. It may be time to consider downsizing to a one-story house plan that is more manageable. Something without stairs to navigate or extra rooms to have to clean.

Retirement house plans embrace a range of sizes and styles, with both large and small options available for homeowners to ensure everyone's needs are well met. Consider, for instance, The Tanglewood, which features an open floor plan with a vaulted great room and a large island kitchen. This small home plan makes use of every square inch of space, providing a beautiful setting for retirement living. For those who need more space, The Chamberlaine, offering a little over 3,300 square feet, delivers in grand style. Everything in this spacious home is luxurious, from the barrel-vaulted ceiling in the foyer to the octagonal dining room.

Donald A. Gardner Architects provides a number of beautiful retirement home plans from which you can choose. Search our database of home plans to find your ideal home.
