House of the Week: Charming and economical

Charming and economical to build, this 1,319-square-foot brick design, Plan HMAFAPW01295 from Homeplans.com, is ideal for first-time homeowners, retired couples, or anyone who would enjoy an affordable, easier-to-maintain home.

Just because it’s smaller, though, doesn’t mean it’s not full of special details and amenities. Choosing the unfinished basement offers the opportunity to double the space of this one-storey home.

A tiled foyer leads past the open-rail basement stairs (choose a crawlspace foundation instead, if desired) to a vaulted great room, warmed by a gas fireplace.

The dining room offers buffet space and sliding glass doors to the rear deck.

An island adds extra prep space in the nearby L-shaped kitchen, which overlooks the rear deck.

Sleeping quarters are to the right, and include the master suite with its double closets and private bathroom, and two family bedrooms that share another full bath. Skylights bring natural illumination to both bathrooms.

The two-car garage loads in front, making this a great choice for a narrow lot.
