The traditional-styled rancher is as popular as ever with homeowners who prefer main-floor living and this plan fits the bill admirably. The house is designed on a crawlspace, but the plan also includes an optional basement if the site is suitable. The covered entry leads into a skylit foyer. The living room features a cosy fireplace flanked by piano windows. A sloping ceiling is highlighted by a raised circle-top window, which also adds an attractive element to the exterior appearance. The living room is open to the dining room, which includes a recess for a buffet and french doors leading to the rear deck. The adjacent kitchen has a separate, informal eating area, which also has a door to the rear deck. The master suite includes an attractive bay window, which allows for additional natural light and provides a possible sitting area. The three piece ensuite features a boxed-out bathtub space. Bedrooms two and three share a central main bathroom with a skylight and a towel closet. These bedrooms are separated by a full-sized laundry room which has access to the double garage. Siding, with brick and cedar shakes combine for a simple, clean-looking exterior. The house is 47 feet, 4 inches wide and 51 feet, 7 inches deep with 1,386 square feet of living space.
