Often a detached garage with quarters above it can be what you need for weekend guests, depending on the codes for your particular neighborhood. Let us know if we can help you find a plan that works for your needs. My Cottages collection of smaller scale plans may have a good fit.

The original plan is about half that size. Look forward to seeing your blog post--thanks so much. With the basement, this house is larger than you’d think–nearly 11,000 square feet!

I am curious, how large is the house? It has beautiful proportions, and it feels very gracious - not too large. I am working on the blog post that features my interview with you, and I will certainly highlight this lovely project in the post.

We are over 60 and we don't need a large home anymore, but we do entertain and will have weekend guests. We're thinking 1500 to 2000 sf should be about right.
