Buccaneer (336-100)

Contemporary styling makes the 2,300-square-foot Buccaneer (336-100) a home you can take pride in. Not only is it pleasing to the eye, but the available space is also well allocated, allowing ease of movement throughout the three- bedroom, two-bath house.

The graceful columns in front of the large porch impart a regal bearing as your guests step into the vaulted entry. Directly in front of the entry, a coat closet with a china hutch partitions the various living areas.

To the right, the vaulted living room, with a bank of windows to admit the sunlight and provide a pleasing view, offers a quiet place to sit and talk or just spend the afternoon with a book.

Two good-sized bedrooms occupy one side of the home. Each has closet space and lots of windows. This sleeping arrangement could be beneficial to a family with teenagers. Loud music over here won't disturb the rest of the household. A full bathroom, with twin basins, and a small home office share the hallway.

The placement of the kitchen is a valuable asset.

Featuring a central cooktop, a pantry, double ovens and a mixing center, the cook in the house will appreciate the ease with which meals can be prepared. Serve meals informally in the adjoining skylit nook or more formally in the equally proximate dining room. When the weather is good, have breakfast or a barbecue on the back deck.

The luxurious master suite has it all. In addition to huge a sleeping area, it features a spacious walk-in closet, a shower, an oversized tub, separate basins and private access to the deck with a spa.

The three-car garage has a shop/storage area with two built-in workbenches, a recycling center and a door to the utility room, where you can drop off muddy shoes and soiled clothing before entering the house.
