The carefully designed main level in each model includes a living area, at least one bedroom, a fully equipped kitchen, a stackable laundry space, and a full bathroom with a tub/shower or a walk-in shower. Covered porches on all models and loft space in most extend living space. With vaulted ceilings and clerestory windows, these homes feel light and spacious!
