In today's economy, when every cent counts, a young family shopping for a first home would like to make an economical purchase that presents the most for each building dollar. If you happen to fit that profile, you need look no further than the 1,033-square-foot Driftwood. This three-bedroom, two-bath home wastes none of the allotted space. Retired couples wishing to downsize should also consider the Driftwood.
In addition to the attractive wood exterior, this innovative floor design offers more than many plans boasting a lot more square footage and a higher price tag. A classic covered porch takes you through the entry and into the spacious family room. A vaulted ceiling accents the feeling of openness that marks the Driftwood. There is plenty of room here for a full complement of furniture. An optional entertainment center will add to your enjoyment of this main family gathering spot.The two secondary bedrooms are nice-size, and each has a generous closet and a view window facing front. They share a full bathroom in the connecting hallway, which also features built-in shelves and convenient guest closet.
The master suite is quite a surprise for a home this size. A big sleeping area, huge walk-in closet and private bathroom grace the main bedroom. Linen storage and a small utility closet are nearby.
The garage, stylishly attached at the side of the house, offers you the safety and benefit of being able to unload groceries directly from car to the kitchen. No need to worry about the weather while performing this chore.
The functional kitchen, complete with all the built-in appliances, lets you prepare meals with a minimum of bother. The vaulted dining room provides a pleasant atmosphere to break bread and discuss the events of the day. Sliding glass doors open to the back patio, admitting a cool breeze and offering a spot for occasional outdoor dining or working on your tan when the sun is shining.
