The Chestnut is a great, affordable 3 bedroom ranch floor plan to build, featuring dual curved wrap around porches mirrored across a vaulted great room.
- The front wrap around porch is inviting with an architecturally curved corner and classic revival style.
- Inside the foyer, the vaulted living room opens up to the kitchen with optional exposed framing throughout.
- The kitchen features tons of windows for natural light, a sit-in island with range and full size pantry cabinets next to the refrigerator.
- A modest room to the front of the plan makes a great office or workout room.
- Off of the garage, a mud room with built-in cubbies offers direct access to the laundry room. The garage included a storage room, convenient mechanical room and optional side entry.
- The three bedrooms occupy the right rear of the house. The secondary bedrooms share a sizable bathroom. The primary bedroom enjoys an en-suite bathroom with a walk-in closet.

Let's Build Together
We're a US based family owned small business that designs & sells our plans exclusively. We work hard to deliver beautiful, functional house plans and useful tools for visualizing and building your home.
Our mission is to give you an abundance of proven designs so you’re not stuck with a design that you don’t love. (You’ll also save $10-20k+ over an architect which can add some pretty incredible upgrades to your new home!)
We are a full service company. We're here with the resources and customer support to empower you with the knowledge that you need to navigate this complex process.
F.A.Q.
How do the Foundation Options Work?
All of our plans come with a slab or crawlspace option. Most of our plans also come with a basement option, but that option is sometimes not available when there is no interior staircase.
For basement plans, the staircase access is typically under the main stair as shown on the floorplan. The basement plan is delivered as a blank slate in the same footprint as the conditioned first floor. We can help you layout a custom basement floor plan using our flat rate customization service.
For a slab or crawlspace foundation, the area under the main stair area is typically delivered as a closet.
Feel free to contact us if you have any questions!
Are these house plans to code & permit ready?
We design all of our plans to the current year release of the International Residential Code (IRC) which is the most widely adopted code.
However building code is administered at the local jurisdiction (there are estimated to be more than 20,000 jurisdictions in the US!).So there may be some subtle variations that need require edits. We pride ourselves on our very detailed plans, and are constantly updating our house plans to ensure that they meet even the most stringent permit requirements.
Locations may require local site-specific structural engineering or a locally licensed architect to review and stamp plans. We always recommend hiring a structural engineer because optimizing your plan to the local site conditions can actually be a time and money saver.
Can I get a printed set of plans?
Yes, you can add any number of printed plansets in the cart page for $40/ea.
Alternatively, plans can be easily printed at your local large format printing store (Fedex, UPS Store, etc) for about $50-70/copy.
How are these plans guaranteed?
If the plan you purchased does not work out for any reason, we will exchange for a different plan for free. (limit one use per customer).
Because we design 100% of our house plans in-house, we are the only house plan design company that offers the benefit of a price guarantee!
Can I purchase the plans now and pay for Modifications, CAD files or Prints later?
Yes, no problem. You can always add any of our additional services after the fact and we will make sure it gets to you.
What is the finished area and unfinished area?
The finished area is shaded blue/gray on the plans and the unfinished area is beige.
The finished area always includes all enclosed living spaces, except for bonus rooms or attics.
The unfinished area includes, garages, porches, attics and bonus rooms.
If selected, basement square footage is not included in the finished area.
Can I change the materials?
Yes!
The exterior and interior materials shown are just one possible option you can choose. In our construction drawings, the material is always annotated 'as specified by owner' so you are not locked into a specific material or pattern.
All materials are up to you, the owner, to pick out and specify to your contractor.
What size are the beds?
The beds shown are almost always a queen sized bed. In general, we size all primary bedrooms to fit a king sized bed and all secondary bedroomsto fit at least a queen.
Occasionally, when we put 2 beds in the same room they are double sized beds.
