Stone joins shake and wood siding to make a pleasing combination on the facade of this comfortable ranch plan. The open-concept, two-bedroom design (with a flexible use study that can easily become a third bedroom) is perfection for a young or downsizing couple. Step ceilings, a corner fireplace, and a wall of windows looking out to the covered porch give the great room lots of interest. The totally open kitchen flows effortlessly into the large dining area, perfect for today's casual lifestyles. A walk-in pantry and mud room add contemporary convenience.

The unfinished basement offers an abundance of expansion options as the family grows. Other highlights: walk-in closets for both secondary bedrooms (plus another by the garage), an island in the kitchen, and a patio and porch outside the breakfast nook.
