House Plan Description

Country Rustic Exterior

Leading up to this home, you immediately see the country rustic inspiration design inspiring the Rustic Ridge Retreat exterior. Featuring shake siding and rich wood paneling, this charming house plan begins with a 6’ covered porch. The porch lives for the quintessential rocking chairs, hanging plants, and mornings spent birdwatching. A stone-trimmed foundation wraps around the base of this plan with a retaining wall adding privacy to the side entry patio on the lower level. Rustic Ridge Retreat is designed with a metal roof tying together the country rustic exterior elements.

Main Floor Experience

Entering the home through the front door leads you into the main level foyer. The foyer features exceptionally tall ceilings and is open above from the upper level of the house plan. Rustic Ridge Retreat begins with an easy drop-off bench for work supplies and school gear. To the left of this plan is the staircase leading to the upper level. Directly to the right of the foyer is the entrance to the Master Bedroom. This large space has front-facing windows to allow for extra natural lighting. Front-facing windows also give the Master Bedroom an excellent view of the front porch and yard. The Master Bedroom includes a large walk-in closet the width of the Master Bedroom for quick storage and easy access to your belongings. A closet this size can hold nearly all of them! Quick entry to the first full bath is just off the Master Bedroom. This is the only entry into this bathroom, as well. Ample room for a single vanity and large shower room turn the Master Bedroom into a private oasis!

Continuing from the foyer to the center of the floor plan, you pass a half bath. This bathroom has a single vanity and toilet with plenty of legroom space. The foyer then opens into the open floor plan Kitchen and Great Room. The Kitchen includes a high-low bar island with seating for up to five additional family member or friends. This kitchen island and sink allows for extra counterspace while prepping a meal. The exterior left corner of the kitchen is dedicated to pantry space leaving more room for you to entertain and cook. Entry to your laundry space is just off the kitchen and leaves plenty of room for a stacking washer/dryer set and additional storage room. Following towards the rear of the main level from the Kitchen takes you into the dining area. This space has large side and rear windows bringing natural light into your dining space. The rear windows of the dining area look out onto your 6’ covered grilling porch and back property. The right of this open floor plan lends entertaining space to your Great Room. The Great Room includes a large fireplace for pleasant nights, evenings, and holidays with loved ones. Multiple side and rear windows bathe the Great Room in natural lighting. The perfect view for any country home! Wide double doors in the Great Room open onto your covered grilling porch making BBQs and bonfires a breeze.

Upper Level Entertainment

From the foyer and up the stairs, you land on the upper level of the Rustic Ridge Retreat. Here you will begin in the Upper Living Area. This space is designed with a second optional gas fireplace. This is great for families with older children or young adults. The Upper Living Area offers plenty of entertainment space for friends and family. This area can be an informal living space for more intimate and casual family time, a media gaming area, or even a lovely reading library nook! The Upper Living Area has an indoor balcony that opens to the foyer below making it a simple task to call-out for school bus arrivals.

Upstairs Bedroom Space

Bedroom 2, 3, and 4 can be found on the upper level. The bedrooms are well spaced for additional privacy. Beginning with Bedroom 2 at the rear of the home, this space is generously sized with a healthy walk-in closet for easy storage. Bedroom includes a set of rear-facing windows and overlooks the covered grilling porch and backyard. Following the back wall of this country house plan, a full sized bath separates Bedroom 2 and Bedroom 4. This bathroom is a single vanity sink and includes plenty of space for an average shower tub. The far rear corner of Rustic Ridge Retreat holds Bedroom 4. This bedroom is just slightly larger than Bedroom 2. A set of rear-facing windows allows for plenty of natural lighting and fresh air on warm spring days. Bedroom 3 can be found at the front of this rustic house plan. Separating Bedroom 3 and Bedroom 4 is a large storage area. This generously sized storage space is great for transitioning furniture and holiday decorations. From the Upper Living Area and walking towards the front of this floor plan, you will come to a second laundry space. This house plan is designed with ample room for a stacking washer/dryer set. An upper level laundry space can encourage the upstairs residents and family members to practice healthy and clean responsibility without requiring a trip down the stairs in between washing loads! Just to the right of the laundry space is the largest of the three upper level bedrooms. Bedroom 3 features vaulted ceilings and a step-in closet. For a small to moderately-sized family, this space can be used as an elegant study office!

Media Room Adventures

The Media Room is a large, angled addition to this house plan at the rear of the Aspen Retreat home. Access the Media Room through the rear of the Great Room or through the full bath. Simple access to the bathroom from the Media Room puts a hold on the stop-and-start of your movie nights! A good-sized media closet makes choosing your show the hardest part of the night. Easily store your favorite films and shows close by without taking up precious storage space throughout the rest of your home!

Basement Recreation

Following down the stairs from the main level foyer takes you into the lower level Rec. Room. This is an exceptionally large space waiting for your hobbies, passions, and choice of entertainment! With this much room, your personal gym can get an upgrade! Include a pool table, pinball machines, gaming stations and more in your personal entertainment zone. Alongside your Rec. Room, Bedroom 5 resides on the lower level. Bedroom 5 almost as large as Bedroom 3 on the upper level of this house plan. A long step-in closet gives Bedroom 5 a plethora of storage space for personal belongings. Next to this bedroom is the last full bath of the Rustic Ridge Retreat floor plan. This moderately-sized bath offers a single vanity sink and room for a complete shower tub. Built-in linen storage keeps your toiletries organized neatly without sacrificing storage in another portion of your home!

Basement Level Patio

The main level of the Rustic Ridge Retreat houses an inviting and charming front covered porch, as well as a rear covered grilling porch. The lower level receives the same special attention to detail with a side patio! A 10’ patio follows the length of the lower level and includes entry into the basement Rec. Room. Retaining walls line the front and back of the patio for extra privacy while enjoying your outdoor garden time.
