This house is from the Southern Living House Plans website. They have so many beautiful plans with big porches and open floorplans. It is amazing.
The main floor has a great open floor plan with the Master as the only bedroom. This is something J wants is a Master on a separate floor from the kiddo's rooms. I also love the u shaped kitchen on the back of the house that looks out over the yard. Great for watching the kids play while I cook. The plan also has a screened porch, which I love. The only thing missing is a fireplace attached to the porch for those cold winters. But, I think that can be easily remedied.
On the second floor there are two bedrooms, both with their own bath. E and N love that they would have their own bathrooms in this house. I think it will be a pain to clean, but maybe I'll be able to teach them cleanliness and responsibility for their own bathroom... I love the playroom on the second floor. It has a perfect spot for a hidden room (storage) and they could watch movies up there and keep all their "things" upstairs. What a wonderful plan!
I am excited to start a new journey in life. Living in cramped living quarters (again, ah student years how I never wanted to revisit your small spaces...) will be hard, but I am so very determined to meet this life goal that I am ready for anything. I hope we learn to appreciate how much my parents are helping us out and think of that when we want to scream.
