House plans from Donald A. Gardner Architects typically show off impressive details and luxurious touches. While that’s still true of their newest designs, these fresh layouts also feature slimmed-down, streamlined footprints and smaller square footage to work for an audience with a smaller budget.
New and under 2,000 square feet, this one-story house plan features on-trend farmhouse style. The split-bedroom layout gives privacy to the master suite, where owners will appreciate the private bathroom with skylights and a big shower. More skylights on the back screen porch create a bright, inviting outdoor retreat. See more images, information, and the floor plans.
Families with a live-in relative (like an in-law or grown child) will appreciate the flexible second master suite. Both comfortable rooms are easy to reach on the main floor and feature private bathrooms with double sinks and walk-in closets. The open layout of the gathering areas feels contemporary, especially with the kitchen sporting a big island. Two more bedrooms and a bonus space upstairs provide plenty of room for kids or visitors.

Details make the difference in this 1,974-square-foot house plan. The relaxed open layout flows from the island kitchen to the great room and dining area, with the large screen porch nearby. Want a wow moment? Check out the master suite’s huge walk-in closet with a sun tunnel. Upstairs, a large bonus room can be finished to provide extra space.

The study in this attractive ranch design can easily become a third bedroom when needed, adding lots of versatility to the simple layout. In the main part of the home, a cathedral ceiling draws the eye up to make the great room feel even more spacious. Space for a grill on the screen porch makes it feel like summer.
