For anyone that may be looking for this also, I found two builders that posted their plans. The Miller Park has clearly been modified, but it was at least good to see it as a finished product. Here are the links: Miller Park http://www.oconeecountynewhomes.com/new_home_details.asp?listing=6 Clarksville http://www.eagleharborva.com/our-homes/home-for-sale-detail/3335/?doing_wp_cron=1394769235.5261080265045166015625

I would look at the Meyerswood as well. It is essentially the same plan with some revisions to the floor plan and a totally new second floor and elevation. As to the earlier comment about who designs these, I do. The dormers are purely functional because there is a 11' high ceiling in the dining and foyer below. If the ceiling height was 9' in those rooms, then the dormers could be active at the height that they are at. If we can help you in any way, please feel free to contact me at etaylor@frankbetz.com Here is a link that might be useful: Meyerswood

The code required egress path from the basement is not usually allowed to pass through the garage so unless there is another egress path out of the basement it should remain as it is. And if there is another egress path, it would be wise to avoid two doors into the garage if the local jurisdiction requires them both to be fire rated or have special hardware or a perimeter air seal. At any rate, the door to the garage should probably have a landing so the door could swing over it. The basement stair door could also swing the other way so this is a minor issue. It is best to solve the bigger problems, then deal with the smaller ones. I would probably try to put the MBR on the other end of the house in order to open up the kitchen and breakfast area to the yard or, for more privacy, put the MBR upstairs. In that case, in later years, the smaller downstairs bedrooms could be modified to be a master suite and the kids could stay upstairs when they come back to live at home. A tip: take the rent directly out of their paychecks.

Hi all! My husband and I are considering this plan to build and have a few questions Has anyone turned the loft into a 4th bedroom? If so, how did you relocate the staircase to the bonus? did yoh add access to the bathroom to make it another jack/jill? We are in Fayetteville NC and would love to see the house in person if anyone is relatively close? or just drive by to see the outside I am a licensed Realtor and my husband will be our builder Thank you!
