The Penny Lane House Plan
Coastal Low Country House Plan
1,815 SQ. FT. | 3 BED | 2.5 BATH | 2-STORY
Penny Lane is a small Low Country house with big porches, one at the front and one at the back, and an open living floor with enough window to keep the rooms bright all day.
The primary bedroom is on the main floor and opens straight onto the back porch. Built-in shelves and display niches give the living space some character without taking up room, and two bedrooms upstairs share a Jack-and-Jill bath. It sits on a crawlspace with ten-foot ceilings on the first floor.
Two big porches: a deep front porch and a back porch, both part of the living space for most of the year.
A primary bedroom on the porch: the main-floor bedroom has its own door to the back porch, for the first coffee of the day.
Built-ins: shelves and display niches built into the living area, for the books and the things worth looking at.
Windows placed for the view: the windows are arranged to bring in light and frame what is outside.
Two bedrooms and a Jack-and-Jill upstairs: the second floor holds two bedrooms sharing one bath between them.

What foundation does Penny Lane come with?
Penny Lane is drawn on a slab or crawlspace foundation. Crawlspace and slab are both included at no extra charge; choose one under Foundation Options before you buy. A local engineer sizes the foundation for your soil and wind zone.
How tall is Penny Lane and how much ground does it cover?
The maximum ridge height is 30' 6". The footprint is 49' 8" x 38' 0", which is the number to check against your setbacks; porches and the garage count toward it even though they are not in the heated area. Heated living area is 1,815 square feet on 2 stories.

What comes in the plan set for Penny Lane, and what do I still need locally?
A licensed construction set: cover sheet with general notes, foundation plan, dimensioned floor plans for every level, all four exterior elevations, a cross section, roof plan, electrical plans, and door and window schedules, sold as PDF, PDF plus CAD, or Chief Architect files. Every set is licensed for one build at your build address. An engineer's review and stamp where required, a site plan, engineered floor and roof framing, mechanical and plumbing drawings and energy compliance are produced locally, as they are for any stock plan.
Can I look at Penny Lane in detail before buying the full set?
Yes. A $75 study set of Penny Lane includes dimensioned floor plans for every level, all four elevations, door and window schedules and a specification sheet, enough to hand a builder for a budget number and to check the footprint against your lot. It is not licensed for construction. The $75 credits in full toward the Penny Lane construction set for twelve months.
