American Beauty (401-18)American Beauty (401-18) features a homey country facade and a contemporary interior that includes all of the features most popular with modern homebuyers. With two bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs and a master suite and half bath on the lower level, this charming, 2572-square-foot home is equally well-adapted to a family with older children or to empty-nesters who wish to have space to accommodate grandchildren and to entertain without feeling cramped. If built over an optional full basement, the possibilities for expanding storage and living spaces are practically endless. Stepping into the vaulted entryway, the first impression is one of elegance. These areas and the formal living room are both vaulted to the second floor. In fact, the landing at the top of the curving stairway overlooks the living room. An impression of spaciousness expands throughout the home as you step through to the kitchen, a bright, open area that any cook will find enjoyable. A bay window in the nook enhances the routine morning breakfast, and with a built-in desk, this area will be well-used throughout the day. Whole families of cooks can work together in this area without bumping elbows while participating in family gatherings in the adjacent family room. The walk-in pantry holds more than enough supplies for the holidays; in addition, there are plenty of cupboards. This design makes excellent use of interesting angles and spaces.
The utility room has all the amenities: laundry sink, appliances and a window that looks out onto the front porch. The two-car garage includes extra space for a workbench and/or storage space.
