Here are the final versions of the house plans – before changes:
Changes are:
- Add framed 3’0″W x 6’8″T doorway into kitchen at foot of stairs as close to exterior wall as possible (This is actually so I can put a built in cabinet to use the dead space in the corner that will face the hall and have a pass through to kitchen from the hall)
- Take out framed pantry under stairs (I have plans for a pantry cabinet to put instead of a closet style pantry)
- Add pocket door under stairs to close off back half of hallway
- Change windows in both upstairs bedrooms from a single 6’0″W x 4’0″ T slider to double hung windows the center 3’0″W x 5’0″T and windows on each side that are 2’6″W x 5’0″T
- Change peaked porch roof with vaulted ceiling on side porch to flat roof with deck above
- Change center window in bedroom over porch to a 3’0″W x 6’8″ French door (to match style of porch doors?) for access to deck
- Change pocket door in half bath to owner supplied door (DH has a neat idea that I will explain later)
- Switch washer and dryer positions so washer is on left as you look at fronts
- Frame under center window in master bedroom for possible future door (With an ICF house this makes sense in case we ever want a deck off the master bedroom.)
