House Plans Types
House Plans types help us differentiate and categorize the different and most common house structures available. While some people may interpret some of these differently than others, we are using the types listed to categorize our house plans into house groups.
House Type
House Plans Styles
History has taught us a great deal about house styles, their origin and why these styles exist. But many homes today are a collaboration of styles that overlap or have no style at all, but include some elements of a specific style. Search for the house plan that best fits your needs, then allow us to modify the elevation to fit the style you like.

House Plans Square Feet
All searches will use a base square feet or MLS square feet. However, you will find we also include Life Style square feet to show the approximate possible or future square feet a house can offer, such as future lower level space and/or porches and decks.

House Plan Modifications

Each of our designers offer house plan design modification services for all of the house plans found on this site. While alterations are available for all plans, we have learned that there are times when the modification requested become too extensive, and starting from scratch will actually cost less. Contact the owner of the plan you are interested in and have him or her give you a quote.

  • Once a designer receives a marked up plan, they can put together an estimate which will be emailed back to you within two business days.
  • Standard completion time is typically less than a week, but can take up to two weeks if additional changes are requested.
  • The existing plan price and the modification estimate must be paid prior to doing the work and shipping or emailing files.
  • Please note that once a plan goes into modification, the free option is not longer avaibale and you must request a quote for the complete job.

Example of a simple modification

Customer request:

  1. Move the walk-in closet to the outside wall to eliminate the hallway and make it larger
  2. Move the kitchen sink to the outside wall with a window
  3. Want a smaller bar and open up to dining room
  4. Would like a larger walk-in tile shower, a little more designer feel
  5. Take 24 inches from the front of the garage - only 22' deep
  6. Mirror the plan, want the garage on the right

Example of a complex modification

Below is an example of an extreme modification to a plan. This is not two separate plan designs, but one modified into the other. Please note that when this much is changed, almost every entity (wall, window, dimension, etc.) is moved, deleted and/or replaced, and effecting all the elevation views. We do not recommend this extensive type of modification because more errors can be made making sure everything is put back together correctly. Typically the designers will not do modifications to this extent and will suggest a custom designed plan.


Before


After

If you're look for something unique or don't mind spending a few more dollars for more complex designs, please share your thought in the Webside Forum or with specific designers and share your requirements, and they will see what they might already have that they could use as a starting point or give you a quote for a new design. It never costs a thing to ask.

Submitting a plan for modification

As you see from the first example, simply print off the house plans you are interested in, mark them up and include a note (use a numbered list with numbers on the plan is best like the example), and fax or email it to the appropreiate contact.
