House Plans

Somehow, the change from bedroom to clothes room in our current house combined itself with our hope to move into a new house soon, and I got to drawing up house plans.
Here are some ideas if we either built or could significantly remodel an existing house.
This was the first idea. The dashed line between the two smaller bedrooms indicates a passageway of some sort (tunnel, rope bridge, etc.) If you’re going to put all 4 boys near each other, might as well make it fun.
This was a variation on the first idea. Not as good as the first, I think. But it adds a half bath and spot for closet in the slightly larger entryway.
This was back to the first idea, but the kitchen was moved to the corner of the house so that it’s not a thoroughfare. In our current house, the kitchen is also a hallway – the only way to access the upstairs. This plan prevents that. Now the focal point upon entry becomes the living room.
Now all the bedrooms are on one side of the house. The kitchen is not the focal point upon entry, but it will get all the bed/bath/laundry traffic.
Last idea, for now at least. Move the master bedroom away from the kids’ bedrooms for some peace and quiet. Kitchen is not the focal point, but is not secluded either.
Now all we need is a house to remodel or land on which to build.
So he built the house and finished it; and he covered the house with beams and planks of cedar.
