Outdoor Living & Exterior Architecture
-
Grand Wraparound Covered Porch (714 Sq. Ft.): Measuring an impressive 47′-3″ x 31′-11″, this deep porch envelopes three sides of the home, providing protected outdoor zones for morning coffee, evening entertaining, and perimeter circulation.
-
Craftsman Cottage Proportions: A steep 10:12 roof pitch, gable accents, and an overall structural height of 26.2 ft lend authentic cottage character that fits naturally into rural parcels, coastal properties, or suburban infill lots.
-
High-Efficiency 2×6 Framing: Specified with 2×6 wood exterior framing, the exterior thermal envelope easily accommodates high-R-value batt or spray-foam insulation, directly lowering monthly heating and cooling costs across varied North American climate zones.
