Inside, the vaulted great room creates a bright and inviting atmosphere while a beautiful fireplace serves as the focal point of the home's main gathering area. The open design helps the home feel larger than its square footage and encourages easy interaction between family and guests.
The kitchen connects seamlessly with the dining area, creating a functional layout that supports both daily living and entertaining. Ample cabinetry provides valuable storage while maintaining efficient workflow throughout the space.
The laundry room is perfectly sized to provide convenience without sacrificing valuable living area. Smart planning throughout the home ensures every square foot works hard for the homeowner.
The split-bedroom arrangement provides privacy and comfort for everyone. The primary suite is located on one side of the home and includes a walk-in closet along with a private bathroom for added convenience.
On the opposite side, two secondary bedrooms share a full bath and offer comfortable accommodations for children, guests, or flexible uses such as a home office or hobby room.
Whether you're looking for a starter home, vacation cabin, rental investment, retirement retreat, or country getaway, house plan 96559 delivers comfort, value, flexibility, and unmistakable COOL cabin style.

A:Hello,
This plan is drawn as stick framing (rafters - 2 x 6 @ 24" o.c./2 x 8 @ 24" where needed). You can use roof trusses but the size would be up to the roof truss manufacturer.
Q:Do these plans meet IRC 2018?
A:Yes, it meets IRC 2018. Keep in mind, your local county/city may have additional code requirements that we aren't familiar with. In that case, someone in your area may have to bring it up to their codes.

A:The window sizes vary on this plan with most of the windows being 3' x 6' or 3' x 5'.

Does it cover just the living room or also the dining room? How wide are the inside doors and entry doors? How many windows are in each bedroom?
A:Hello,
Unfortunately, we do not have any pictures of the home after construction. The ceiling height throughout is 8' with the exception of the 11' vault in the living room (only covers living room area). The front entry door is 3' wide and the back door is 2'-8" wide. All bedroom doors are 2'-6" and bathroom doors are 2' wide. There are two windows in the master bedroom and one window in each other bedroom.
Thank you.
