GREENE GREENE,, AND AND CAN CAN SELL SELL YOUR YOUR HOME? HOME?

EDEN (D8505) Columns on the covered porch as well as the multi-use of exterior material on the Eden (D8505) give this home a truly unique faÁade. The windows across the face as well as the use of windows in the garage door also spices up the look. The Eden has 1,724 square feet of living area along with an unfinished basement of 1,724 square feet.

Crossing the covered porch to the front door of the Eden brings guests into a rather isolated entryway. There is a coat closet readily available to hang oneís outerwear. Following the hall to the left brings the guest past the stairs to the basement and into the family room. There is a large fireplace in the right front corner of the family room as well as an area that could be used for an entertainment center.

Windows on the side and rear of the room provide a great amount of sunlight making the room light and cheery.

Between the family room and the kitchen is the nook. It has a door that opens onto a covered porch in the rear. The kitchen has counters and cabinets that run along the right wall with an island in the middle, containing the eating bar. A corner walk-in pantry is incorporated into the counter area. More counter and cabinets are mounted against the back of the stairs.

The master bedroom is on the right side to the home opposite the other two bedrooms. It has a

10-foot coffered ceiling and large windows that overlook the backyard. An elongated walk-in closed is on the left side of the master bath. There are ìhis and herî sinks, with an oversized tub, a shower, a linen closet, and private stool area.

The other two bedrooms are on the left front of the Eden and have long wall closets as well as large windows bathing the rooms in light.

Adjacent to bedroom 2 is a full bath with a tub and a conveniently located linen closet.

The Eden gives the appearance of a compact home from the exterior, however, inside overflows with living space. This home would be an ideal retirement home.

The Eden (D8505) is our plan of the week. For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design. Call us at 1-800-5621151 or visit us on line at www.ldiplans.com for details. A $25 study plan is also available consisting of: an artist rendering, elevations, floor plans, and cross section. Order online or search hundreds of other designs including garages, multi family, and standard and luxury homes at www.ldiplans.com.

Order this week to save up to 50% off construction plans using the discount code (newspaper discount code) or send payment to Landmark Designs, Inc. PO Box 5625 Eugene, OR 97405, remember to indicate Eden (D8505) and code.

1840 King Arthur Dr.

CYNTHIA (406-19) The brick facade of the Cynthia (406-19) gives the home a warm, welcoming look. At 1,836 square feet, the interior provides an abundance of open living space. The covered porch opens into an entry. To the left is a door to the large den, where an elegant picture window graces formal entertaining. The back of the entertainment center provides an angular traffic diversion from the entry to the master suite and family room on the left, and the kitchen and the dining area on the right.

The master suite is on the opposite side of the home from the secondary bedrooms. Close to the entry and the family room, this is a private retreat with enough space for a king-sized bed, and several dressers. There is a large master bath with a skylight, double sinks, and an oversized shower. A large walkin closet is conveniently located between the entry of the suite and the bath.

The family room has a bay area filled with windows and patio doors leading to the deck. A large informal eating area ties the kitchen and family areas together with an eating bar. The kitchen is an unusual design. The range and oven are adjacent to the eating bar. Above the sink is a unique corner cabinet, or a knick-knack shelf. The corner pantry is large enough for storage of seasonal items as well as everyday use items.

The garage opens to the utility room with a prewash sink and counter space for sorting and folding.

From the utility room, the kitchen is across the hall and a full bath is down the hall. There is a linen closet in the bath next to the tub, along with one located in the hall. These are shared by the two bedrooms on either side. Each bedroom has its own closet, a large window, and one room has a built-in desk. Available for seasonal items is a storage closet located in this particular hallway.

Home means comfort, happiness, family, and a sense of being welcome. The Cynthia provides all these with its spaciousness.

The Cynthia (406-19) is our plan of the week.

For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design. Call us at 1-800-5621151 or visit us on line at www.ldiplans.com for details. A $25 study plan is also available consisting of: an artist rendering, elevations, floor plans, and cross section. Order online or search hundreds of other designs including garages, multi family, and standard and luxury homes at www.ldiplans.com.

Listen to

GIEBER (404-20) An open floor plan, with luxurious touches and vaulted ceilings, makes the Gieber (404-20) a versatile home, perfect for families that entertain friends and relatives frequently.

The living area for this home is 2,506 square feet, with an optional attic area of 650 square feet.

The entry to the Gieber overlooks the dining room, while still directing guests through the home. An armoire-styled coat closet is to the left, while straight ahead an archway beckons to the depths of the great room. On the right, the vaulted living room is a formal entertaining area, easily accessible from the dining room after an evening dinner.

Almost a home in itself, the master suite is located near the entry, past the living room. The vaulted, luxurious space is complete with French doors leading to a covered spa for relaxing. The master bath leaves nothing out. The spa tub at an angle in the corner separates the two sinks on each side providing his and her cabinet areas. Glass block brightens the tub and shower area.

The vaulted dining room is designed to accommodate even the largest holiday feasts. French doors open on to the covered porch, and a corner hutch displays collectibles. The heart of the home is in the adjacent kitchen, which is open to the great room and the informal eating areas. The open design provides func

tional work space, with ample counter surface and cabinet frontage. The sink is opposite the raised eating bar, and the large nook provides room for a secondary dining table. To complete this spacious area is a huge walk-in pantry.

French doors lead onto the patio from the great room, while additional natural light pours through two large mullion windows. The gas fireplace is the focal point for this vaulted bright gathering area.

A central hall leads from the great room to a full bath, a second bedroom, attic stairs, and the garage.

Ending the hall is a home office, accessible from the outside without entering the home.

The Gieber (404-20) is our plan of the week. For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design. Call us at 1-800-562-1151 or visit us on line at www.ldiplans.com for details. A $25 study plan is also available consisting of: an artist rendering, elevations, floor plans, and cross section. Order online or search hundreds of other designs including garages, multi family, and standard and luxury homes at www.ldiplans.com. Order this week to save up to 50% off construction plans using the discount code (newspaper discount code) or send payment to Landmark Designs, Inc. PO Box 5625 Eugene, OR 97405, remember to indicate Gieber (404-20) and code.

WILLIAMSBURG (406-23) The Williamsburg (406-23) is a modest sized home plan at 1,316 square feet that delivers more value per the building dollar. This attractive, compact home could be the ideal buy for a couple beginning retirement, or just buying their first home. Economical to build and maintain, this three-bedroom home combines excellent use of the available space with classic good looks.

The entry leads directly into the spacious great room with a large picture window providing light and affording a wide view of the backyard. There is plenty of room for a full complement of furniture, providing a perfect place for entertaining or visiting with friends and family. Sliding glass doors open onto a back patio where, on a warm, sunny day, a family barbecue might happen.

Along with all the built-in appliances, the functional walk-in kitchen features a handy eating bar and is adjacent to the dining room. Over the sink, proving light is a window that could easily provide a spot to grow small plants or herbs.

The two bedrooms at the left of the home have ample closet space, and share a full bathroom and linen closet. For a young family, perhaps one of these bedrooms can be utilized as a sewing or music room, study or small office, or most essential of all, a nursery.

The placement of the utility room near the garage is a real plus when bringing in groceries. The

elongated counter provides a great area to set all the packages for sorting and putting away later. It is also large enough to handle folded laundry, those school projects for the kids, or even an area to put the household computer.

The master suite occupies the front right corner of the home, with a generous sleeping area, walk-in closet, and its own private bath. By its location, the suite is partially isolated from the other two bedrooms; however, it is close enough to the other bedrooms for taking care of small children, if needed.

The Williamsburg is reminiscent of the homes built to be starter homes, highlighting many features such as open, well-planned living area that makes it wonderful for the new family or for the empty nester.

The Williamsburg (406-23) is our plan of the week. For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design. Call us at 1-800-5621151 or visit us on line at www.ldiplans.com for details.

A $25 study plan is also available consisting of: an artist rendering, elevations, floor plans, and cross section.

Order online or search hundreds of other designs including garages, multi family, and standard and luxury homes at www.ldiplans.com. Order this week to save up to 50% off construction plans using the discount code (newspaper discount code) or send payment to Landmark Designs, Inc. PO Box 5625 Eugene, OR 97405, remember to indicate Williamsburg (406-23) and code.

WILLIAMSBURG (406-23) The Williamsburg (406-23) is a modest sized home plan at 1,316 square feet that delivers more value per the building dollar. This attractive, compact home could be the ideal buy for a couple beginning retirement, or just buying their first home. Economical to build and maintain, this three-bedroom home combines excellent use of the available space with classic good looks.

The entry leads directly into the spacious great room with a large picture window providing light and affording a wide view of the backyard. There is plenty of room for a full complement of furniture, providing a perfect place for entertaining or visiting with friends and family. Sliding glass doors open onto a back patio where, on a warm, sunny day, a family barbecue might happen.

Along with all the built-in appliances, the functional walk-in kitchen features a handy eating bar and is adjacent to the dining room. Over the sink, proving light is a window that could easily provide a spot to grow small plants or herbs.

The two bedrooms at the left of the home have ample closet space, and share a full bathroom and linen closet. For a young family, perhaps one of these bedrooms can be utilized as a sewing or music room, study or small office, or most essential of all, a nursery.

The placement of the utility room near the garage is a real plus when bringing in groceries. The

elongated counter provides a great area to set all the packages for sorting and putting away later. It is also large enough to handle folded laundry, those school projects for the kids, or even an area to put the household computer.

The master suite occupies the front right corner of the home, with a generous sleeping area, walk-in closet, and its own private bath. By its location, the suite is partially isolated from the other two bedrooms; however, it is close enough to the other bedrooms for taking care of small children, if needed.

The Williamsburg is reminiscent of the homes built to be starter homes, highlighting many features such as open, well-planned living area that makes it wonderful for the new family or for the empty nester.

The Williamsburg (406-23) is our plan of the week. For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design. Call us at 1-800-5621151 or visit us on line at www.ldiplans.com for details.

A $25 study plan is also available consisting of: an artist rendering, elevations, floor plans, and cross section.

Order online or search hundreds of other designs including garages, multi family, and standard and luxury homes at www.ldiplans.com. Order this week to save up to 50% off construction plans using the discount code (newspaper discount code) or send payment to Landmark Designs, Inc.

GIEBER (404-20) An open floor plan, with luxurious touches and vaulted ceilings, makes the Gieber (404-20) a versatile home, perfect for families that entertain friends and relatives frequently.

The living area for this home is 2,506 square feet, with an optional attic area of 650 square feet.

The entry to the Gieber overlooks the dining room, while still directing guests through the home. An armoire-styled coat closet is to the left, while straight ahead an archway beckons to the depths of the great room. On the right, the vaulted living room is a formal entertaining area, easily accessible from the dining room after an evening dinner.

Almost a home in itself, the master suite is located near the entry, past the living room. The vaulted, luxurious space is complete with French doors leading to a covered spa for relaxing. The master bath leaves nothing out. The spa tub at an angle in the corner separates the two sinks on each side providing his and her cabinet areas. Glass block brightens the tub and shower area.

The vaulted dining room is designed to accommodate even the largest holiday feasts. French doors open on to the covered porch, and a corner hutch displays collectibles. The heart of the home is in the adjacent kitchen, which is open to the great room and the informal eating areas. The open design provides func

tional work space, with ample counter surface and cabinet frontage. The sink is opposite the raised eating bar, and the large nook provides room for a secondary dining table. To complete this spacious area is a huge walk-in pantry.

French doors lead onto the patio from the great room, while additional natural light pours through two large mullion windows. The gas fireplace is the focal point for this vaulted bright gathering area.

A central hall leads from the great room to a full bath, a second bedroom, attic stairs, and the garage.

Ending the hall is a home office, accessible from the outside without entering the home.

The Gieber (404-20) is our plan of the week. For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design. Call us at 1-800-562-1151 or visit us on line at www.ldiplans.com for details. A $25 study plan is also available consisting of: an artist rendering, elevations, floor plans, and cross section.

“Superior Service Isn’t Expensive It’s Priceless!”

1840 King Arthur Dr.

CYNTHIA (406-19) The brick facade of the Cynthia (406-19) gives the home a warm, welcoming look. At 1,836 square feet, the interior provides an abundance of open living space. The covered porch opens into an entry. To the left is a door to the large den, where an elegant picture window graces formal entertaining. The back of the entertainment center provides an angular traffic diversion from the entry to the master suite and family room on the left, and the kitchen and the dining area on the right.

The master suite is on the opposite side of the home from the secondary bedrooms. Close to the entry and the family room, this is a private retreat with enough space for a king-sized bed, and several dressers. There is a large master bath with a skylight, double sinks, and an oversized shower. A large walkin closet is conveniently located between the entry of the suite and the bath.

The family room has a bay area filled with windows and patio doors leading to the deck. A large informal eating area ties the kitchen and family areas together with an eating bar. The kitchen is an unusual design. The range and oven are adjacent to the eating bar. Above the sink is a unique corner cabinet, or a knick-knack shelf. The corner pantry is large enough for storage of seasonal items as well as everyday use items.

The garage opens to the utility room with a prewash sink and counter space for sorting and folding.

From the utility room, the kitchen is across the hall and a full bath is down the hall. There is a linen closet in the bath next to the tub, along with one located in the hall. These are shared by the two bedrooms on either side. Each bedroom has its own closet, a large window, and one room has a built-in desk. Available for seasonal items is a storage closet located in this particular hallway.

Home means comfort, happiness, family, and a sense of being welcome. The Cynthia provides all these with its spaciousness.

The Cynthia (406-19) is our plan of the week.

For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design. Call us at 1-800-5621151 or visit us on line at www.ldiplans.com for details. A $25 study plan is also available consisting of: an artist rendering, elevations, floor plans, and cross section. Order online or search hundreds of other designs including garages, multi family, and standard and luxury homes at www.ldiplans.com.

Crossing the covered porch to the front door of the Eden brings guests into a rather isolated entryway. There is a coat closet readily available to hang oneís outerwear. Following the hall to the left brings the guest past the stairs to the basement and into the family room. There is a large fireplace in the right front corner of the family room as well as an area that could be used for an entertainment center.

Windows on the side and rear of the room provide a great amount of sunlight making the room light and cheery.

Between the family room and the kitchen is the nook. It has a door that opens onto a covered porch in the rear. The kitchen has counters and cabinets that run along the right wall with an island in the middle, containing the eating bar. A corner walk-in pantry is incorporated into the counter area. More counter and cabinets are mounted against the back of the stairs.

The master bedroom is on the right side to the home opposite the other two bedrooms. It has a

10-foot coffered ceiling and large windows that overlook the backyard. An elongated walk-in closed is on the left side of the master bath. There are ìhis and herî sinks, with an oversized tub, a shower, a linen closet, and private stool area.

The other two bedrooms are on the left front of the Eden and have long wall closets as well as large windows bathing the rooms in light.

Adjacent to bedroom 2 is a full bath with a tub and a conveniently located linen closet.

The Eden gives the appearance of a compact home from the exterior, however, inside overflows with living space. This home would be an ideal retirement home.

EDEN (D8505) Columns on the covered porch as well as the multi-use of exterior material on the Eden (D8505) give this home a truly unique faÁade. The windows across the face as well as the use of windows in the garage door also spices up the look. The Eden has 1,724 square feet of living area along with an unfinished basement of 1,724 square feet.

Crossing the covered porch to the front door of the Eden brings guests into a rather isolated entryway. There is a coat closet readily available to hang oneís outerwear. Following the hall to the left brings the guest past the stairs to the basement and into the family room. There is a large fireplace in the right front corner of the family room as well as an area that could be used for an entertainment center.

Windows on the side and rear of the room provide a great amount of sunlight making the room light and cheery.

Between the family room and the kitchen is the nook. It has a door that opens onto a covered porch in the rear. The kitchen has counters and cabinets that run along the right wall with an island in the middle, containing the eating bar. A corner walk-in pantry is incorporated into the counter area. More counter and cabinets are mounted against the back of the stairs.

The master bedroom is on the right side to the home opposite the other two bedrooms. It has a

10-foot coffered ceiling and large windows that overlook the backyard. An elongated walk-in closed is on the left side of the master bath. There are ìhis and herî sinks, with an oversized tub, a shower, a linen closet, and private stool area.

The other two bedrooms are on the left front of the Eden and have long wall closets as well as large windows bathing the rooms in light.

Adjacent to bedroom 2 is a full bath with a tub and a conveniently located linen closet.

The Eden gives the appearance of a compact home from the exterior, however, inside overflows with living space. This home would be an ideal retirement home.

The Eden (D8505) is our plan of the week. For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design.

“Superior Service Isn’t Expensive It’s Priceless!”

1840 King Arthur Dr.

CYNTHIA (406-19) The brick facade of the Cynthia (406-19) gives the home a warm, welcoming look. At 1,836 square feet, the interior provides an abundance of open living space. The covered porch opens into an entry. To the left is a door to the large den, where an elegant picture window graces formal entertaining. The back of the entertainment center provides an angular traffic diversion from the entry to the master suite and family room on the left, and the kitchen and the dining area on the right.

The master suite is on the opposite side of the home from the secondary bedrooms. Close to the entry and the family room, this is a private retreat with enough space for a king-sized bed, and several dressers. There is a large master bath with a skylight, double sinks, and an oversized shower. A large walkin closet is conveniently located between the entry of the suite and the bath.

The family room has a bay area filled with windows and patio doors leading to the deck. A large informal eating area ties the kitchen and family areas together with an eating bar. The kitchen is an unusual design. The range and oven are adjacent to the eating bar. Above the sink is a unique corner cabinet, or a knick-knack shelf. The corner pantry is large enough for storage of seasonal items as well as everyday use items.

The garage opens to the utility room with a prewash sink and counter space for sorting and folding.

From the utility room, the kitchen is across the hall and a full bath is down the hall. There is a linen closet in the bath next to the tub, along with one located in the hall. These are shared by the two bedrooms on either side. Each bedroom has its own closet, a large window, and one room has a built-in desk. Available for seasonal items is a storage closet located in this particular hallway.

Home means comfort, happiness, family, and a sense of being welcome. The Cynthia provides all these with its spaciousness.

The Cynthia (406-19) is our plan of the week.

For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design. Call us at 1-800-5621151 or visit us on line at www.ldiplans.com for details.

GIEBER (404-20) An open floor plan, with luxurious touches and vaulted ceilings, makes the Gieber (404-20) a versatile home, perfect for families that entertain friends and relatives frequently.

The living area for this home is 2,506 square feet, with an optional attic area of 650 square feet.

The entry to the Gieber overlooks the dining room, while still directing guests through the home. An armoire-styled coat closet is to the left, while straight ahead an archway beckons to the depths of the great room. On the right, the vaulted living room is a formal entertaining area, easily accessible from the dining room after an evening dinner.

Almost a home in itself, the master suite is located near the entry, past the living room. The vaulted, luxurious space is complete with French doors leading to a covered spa for relaxing. The master bath leaves nothing out. The spa tub at an angle in the corner separates the two sinks on each side providing his and her cabinet areas. Glass block brightens the tub and shower area.

The vaulted dining room is designed to accommodate even the largest holiday feasts. French doors open on to the covered porch, and a corner hutch displays collectibles. The heart of the home is in the adjacent kitchen, which is open to the great room and the informal eating areas. The open design provides func

tional work space, with ample counter surface and cabinet frontage. The sink is opposite the raised eating bar, and the large nook provides room for a secondary dining table. To complete this spacious area is a huge walk-in pantry.

French doors lead onto the patio from the great room, while additional natural light pours through two large mullion windows. The gas fireplace is the focal point for this vaulted bright gathering area.

A central hall leads from the great room to a full bath, a second bedroom, attic stairs, and the garage.

Ending the hall is a home office, accessible from the outside without entering the home.

The Gieber (404-20) is our plan of the week. For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design. Call us at 1-800-562-1151 or visit us on line at www.ldiplans.com for details. A $25 study plan is also available consisting of: an artist rendering, elevations, floor plans, and cross section. Order online or search hundreds of other designs including garages, multi family, and standard and luxury homes at www.ldiplans.com. Order this week to save up to 50% off construction plans using the discount code (newspaper discount code) or send payment to Landmark Designs, Inc. PO Box 5625 Eugene, OR 97405, remember to indicate Gieber (404-20) and code.

WILLIAMSBURG (406-23) The Williamsburg (406-23) is a modest sized home plan at 1,316 square feet that delivers more value per the building dollar. This attractive, compact home could be the ideal buy for a couple beginning retirement, or just buying their first home. Economical to build and maintain, this three-bedroom home combines excellent use of the available space with classic good looks.

The entry leads directly into the spacious great room with a large picture window providing light and affording a wide view of the backyard. There is plenty of room for a full complement of furniture, providing a perfect place for entertaining or visiting with friends and family. Sliding glass doors open onto a back patio where, on a warm, sunny day, a family barbecue might happen.

Along with all the built-in appliances, the functional walk-in kitchen features a handy eating bar and is adjacent to the dining room. Over the sink, proving light is a window that could easily provide a spot to grow small plants or herbs.

The two bedrooms at the left of the home have ample closet space, and share a full bathroom and linen closet. For a young family, perhaps one of these bedrooms can be utilized as a sewing or music room, study or small office, or most essential of all, a nursery.

The placement of the utility room near the garage is a real plus when bringing in groceries. The

elongated counter provides a great area to set all the packages for sorting and putting away later. It is also large enough to handle folded laundry, those school projects for the kids, or even an area to put the household computer.

The master suite occupies the front right corner of the home, with a generous sleeping area, walk-in closet, and its own private bath. By its location, the suite is partially isolated from the other two bedrooms; however, it is close enough to the other bedrooms for taking care of small children, if needed.

The Williamsburg is reminiscent of the homes built to be starter homes, highlighting many features such as open, well-planned living area that makes it wonderful for the new family or for the empty nester.

The Williamsburg (406-23) is our plan of the week. For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design. Call us at 1-800-5621151 or visit us on line at www.ldiplans.com for details.

WILLIAMSBURG (406-23) The Williamsburg (406-23) is a modest sized home plan at 1,316 square feet that delivers more value per the building dollar. This attractive, compact home could be the ideal buy for a couple beginning retirement, or just buying their first home. Economical to build and maintain, this three-bedroom home combines excellent use of the available space with classic good looks.

The entry leads directly into the spacious great room with a large picture window providing light and affording a wide view of the backyard. There is plenty of room for a full complement of furniture, providing a perfect place for entertaining or visiting with friends and family. Sliding glass doors open onto a back patio where, on a warm, sunny day, a family barbecue might happen.

Along with all the built-in appliances, the functional walk-in kitchen features a handy eating bar and is adjacent to the dining room. Over the sink, proving light is a window that could easily provide a spot to grow small plants or herbs.

The two bedrooms at the left of the home have ample closet space, and share a full bathroom and linen closet. For a young family, perhaps one of these bedrooms can be utilized as a sewing or music room, study or small office, or most essential of all, a nursery.

The placement of the utility room near the garage is a real plus when bringing in groceries. The

elongated counter provides a great area to set all the packages for sorting and putting away later. It is also large enough to handle folded laundry, those school projects for the kids, or even an area to put the household computer.

The master suite occupies the front right corner of the home, with a generous sleeping area, walk-in closet, and its own private bath. By its location, the suite is partially isolated from the other two bedrooms; however, it is close enough to the other bedrooms for taking care of small children, if needed.

The Williamsburg is reminiscent of the homes built to be starter homes, highlighting many features such as open, well-planned living area that makes it wonderful for the new family or for the empty nester.

The Williamsburg (406-23) is our plan of the week. For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design. Call us at 1-800-5621151 or visit us on line at www.ldiplans.com for details.

A $25 study plan is also available consisting of: an artist rendering, elevations, floor plans, and cross section.

Order online or search hundreds of other designs including garages, multi family, and standard and luxury homes at www.ldiplans.com. Order this week to save up to 50% off construction plans using the discount code (newspaper discount code) or send payment to Landmark Designs, Inc.

GIEBER (404-20) An open floor plan, with luxurious touches and vaulted ceilings, makes the Gieber (404-20) a versatile home, perfect for families that entertain friends and relatives frequently.

The living area for this home is 2,506 square feet, with an optional attic area of 650 square feet.

The entry to the Gieber overlooks the dining room, while still directing guests through the home. An armoire-styled coat closet is to the left, while straight ahead an archway beckons to the depths of the great room. On the right, the vaulted living room is a formal entertaining area, easily accessible from the dining room after an evening dinner.

Almost a home in itself, the master suite is located near the entry, past the living room. The vaulted, luxurious space is complete with French doors leading to a covered spa for relaxing. The master bath leaves nothing out. The spa tub at an angle in the corner separates the two sinks on each side providing his and her cabinet areas. Glass block brightens the tub and shower area.

The vaulted dining room is designed to accommodate even the largest holiday feasts. French doors open on to the covered porch, and a corner hutch displays collectibles. The heart of the home is in the adjacent kitchen, which is open to the great room and the informal eating areas. The open design provides func

tional work space, with ample counter surface and cabinet frontage. The sink is opposite the raised eating bar, and the large nook provides room for a secondary dining table. To complete this spacious area is a huge walk-in pantry.

French doors lead onto the patio from the great room, while additional natural light pours through two large mullion windows. The gas fireplace is the focal point for this vaulted bright gathering area.

A central hall leads from the great room to a full bath, a second bedroom, attic stairs, and the garage.

Ending the hall is a home office, accessible from the outside without entering the home.

The Gieber (404-20) is our plan of the week. For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design. Call us at 1-800-562-1151 or visit us on line at www.ldiplans.com for details. A $25 study plan is also available consisting of: an artist rendering, elevations, floor plans, and cross section.

1840 King Arthur Dr.

CYNTHIA (406-19) The brick facade of the Cynthia (406-19) gives the home a warm, welcoming look. At 1,836 square feet, the interior provides an abundance of open living space. The covered porch opens into an entry. To the left is a door to the large den, where an elegant picture window graces formal entertaining. The back of the entertainment center provides an angular traffic diversion from the entry to the master suite and family room on the left, and the kitchen and the dining area on the right.

The master suite is on the opposite side of the home from the secondary bedrooms. Close to the entry and the family room, this is a private retreat with enough space for a king-sized bed, and several dressers. There is a large master bath with a skylight, double sinks, and an oversized shower. A large walkin closet is conveniently located between the entry of the suite and the bath.

The family room has a bay area filled with windows and patio doors leading to the deck. A large informal eating area ties the kitchen and family areas together with an eating bar. The kitchen is an unusual design. The range and oven are adjacent to the eating bar. Above the sink is a unique corner cabinet, or a knick-knack shelf. The corner pantry is large enough for storage of seasonal items as well as everyday use items.

The garage opens to the utility room with a prewash sink and counter space for sorting and folding.

From the utility room, the kitchen is across the hall and a full bath is down the hall. There is a linen closet in the bath next to the tub, along with one located in the hall. These are shared by the two bedrooms on either side. Each bedroom has its own closet, a large window, and one room has a built-in desk. Available for seasonal items is a storage closet located in this particular hallway.

Home means comfort, happiness, family, and a sense of being welcome. The Cynthia provides all these with its spaciousness.

The Cynthia (406-19) is our plan of the week.

For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design. Call us at 1-800-5621151 or visit us on line at www.ldiplans.com for details. A $25 study plan is also available consisting of: an artist rendering, elevations, floor plans, and cross section.

EDEN (D8505) Columns on the covered porch as well as the multi-use of exterior material on the Eden (D8505) give this home a truly unique faÁade. The windows across the face as well as the use of windows in the garage door also spices up the look. The Eden has 1,724 square feet of living area along with an unfinished basement of 1,724 square feet.

Crossing the covered porch to the front door of the Eden brings guests into a rather isolated entryway. There is a coat closet readily available to hang oneís outerwear. Following the hall to the left brings the guest past the stairs to the basement and into the family room. There is a large fireplace in the right front corner of the family room as well as an area that could be used for an entertainment center.

Windows on the side and rear of the room provide a great amount of sunlight making the room light and cheery.

Between the family room and the kitchen is the nook. It has a door that opens onto a covered porch in the rear. The kitchen has counters and cabinets that run along the right wall with an island in the middle, containing the eating bar. A corner walk-in pantry is incorporated into the counter area. More counter and cabinets are mounted against the back of the stairs.

The master bedroom is on the right side to the home opposite the other two bedrooms. It has a

10-foot coffered ceiling and large windows that overlook the backyard. An elongated walk-in closed is on the left side of the master bath. There are ìhis and herî sinks, with an oversized tub, a shower, a linen closet, and private stool area.

The other two bedrooms are on the left front of the Eden and have long wall closets as well as large windows bathing the rooms in light.

Adjacent to bedroom 2 is a full bath with a tub and a conveniently located linen closet.

The Eden gives the appearance of a compact home from the exterior, however, inside overflows with living space. This home would be an ideal retirement home.

The Eden (D8505) is our plan of the week. For a limited time, we are offering up to 50% off construction plans for this design. Call us at 1-800-5621151 or visit us on line at www.ldiplans.com for details. A $25 study plan is also available consisting of: an artist rendering, elevations, floor plans, and cross section.
