Steep Roof Cape

Series: Carpenter (simple lines, no dormers), Generations (1st floor Master Suite, Office or Apt w/separate entry), Small Wonders

The Steep Roof Cape is one of our most flexible and most economical designs.  The steep roof provides more headroom upstairs than the more traditional cape designs.   We particularly like the expansive dining space, unusual in a house this small.  This design is modular adaptable.

Note that height is figured from 1'-9" below finished first floor (to allow for floor structure and required code clearance).  You'll need to find out how your town or city calculates height (lowest grade or average grade, existing or finished, etc) and adjust accordingly.

Changes worth considering for this design:  Dormers will increase the upstairs living space and light even more.  We have alternate designs where the stair direction is reversed (requires a shed dormer at the back) and the foyer enclosed, allowing a nice home office upstairs, without visitors disturbing the family.

How much do changes cost? Most changes are $175, such as reversing the plan, adding a ground floor bedroom wing, etc. If you make more than one change at once, the second one is usually only $50.

I see an hourly rate for design...?
If you know what you need, like reversing the plan, or adding a wing that we've already designed this doesn't apply. If you need us to try different things, we charge for our design time. We can either do this work with you on-line, so you always know exactly how much time we're spending, or we'll provide an estimate and/or cap. The vast majority of our customization has required less than 5 hours.

Construction Cost?
Cost estimating should be done by your builder. We offer a free on-line review session up to 1/2 hour, where we show you and your builder around the design in 3D and the construction plans. From that session, combined with our affordable Review Set, an experienced builder can provide a preliminary price.

Ordering Process?
After you send us an order, we will call or email to confirm or clarify any options, then send you an invoice. You have not committed to purchase until you approve the order and pay the invoice. Feel free to call us for help with your order.

Prints?
Plans are delivered via email or download link as a PDF file. Most local blueprint companies print from this format (as well as Staples, Kinko's etc). We also send your PDF to our printer and provide you with their contact information. You can order and reorder prints from them directly. An average plan set is currently $18 to $20, $10 for shipping and handling (UPS Ground, 1-3 days).
