House Plan 3550: Monticello - 1217

Monticello - 1217 Description - 3550

This home was designed to solve two rather difficult requirements Make the home look large and stately with a grand front porch but fit on a very narrow site. As a starting point, the garage is in the rear and in the very center in order to minimize the amount of side yard taken up by driveway turn-a-round and to hide the garage from the front facade. With a bit of twist to the interior, the size of the rooms are maximized while creating a very functional interior. Designed with a full array of energy efficient features, including 6 exterior walls, the core location of the hallway makes efficient use of the interior space too.
