An elevator was added. The garage and the utility rooms were given exterior doors for convenience. More storage is found on the lower level with an area of unfinished mechanical storage. Finally, a summer kitchen was added to the screen porch along with skylights for more natural light.

Conceptual Plan - 1284
Our customers love our Sorvino plan, but we wanted to offer a version with some variations on the floor plan. Rather than separate dining and breakfast rooms, the Champlain has a single dining area off the kitchen. And we've added a luxurious screen porch with fireplace accessed from that dining area. Eliminating the second eating area allowed us to add a roomy pantry, a powder room, and a dedicated e-space to the utility zone between kitchen and garage.

Conceptual Plan - #1321
Here's another one of our conceptual plans!
Conceptual Plan 1321 is a derivative of our popular, family-friendly design #1157. The exquisite craftsman exterior remains, while a shortened entry-way, a slightly smaller master bath and combined dining areas reduce the overall square footage slightly. The dining room off the entry has been eliminated and combined with the breakfast area off the kitchen in the back of the house and now offering a rear view. The plan has kept its abundance of storage spaces, which now include a large coat closet in the entry, a coat closet in the hallway off the garage, more storage in the enlarged utility room and a large walk-in pantry off the kitchen. The many outdoor living spaces remain offering multiple options for entertaining. Dual porches on the rear of the house; one off the grand kitchen and one off the luxurious master bedroom, both access the large and open great room at the heart of the plan. Finally, new patio space brings it all together for even more entertaining options.

Conceptual Plan - #1325
Here's another one of our conceptual plans!
Conceptual design #1325 retains the European styled stone and stucco exterior of our design #1234 along with many features from the floor plan. Some updates have reduced the square footage, like combining two dining areas to one and taking small amounts of square footage from the kitchen, master bedroom and great rooms. However, this design lives large with many updates to its storage, including a larger utility room, a larger coat closet at the entry and a large pantry just past the mudroom across from the kitchen. The master bedroom has his-and-hers walk-in closets, the remaining two bedrooms have walk-in closets and the study or additional fourth bedroom has a large closet as well. Finally, some updates to outdoor living include a large screened porch with a fireplace, skylights and summer kitchen for a great entertaining space.
