The Calverton Bl 8530Bl is a one-story cottage-style home providing 1,195 square feet of heated living space. Designed with a 40-foot width and 48-foot 8-inch depth, this plan maximizes its footprint through a compact, efficient layout that accommodates three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The exterior is defined by a 25-foot maximum building height and an 8:12 roof pitch, establishing a classic profile that integrates both front and rear covered porch areas.
The interior architecture centers on a keeping room configuration that anchors the main living zone. With 9-foot ceiling heights throughout the primary level, the interior volume creates a consistent scale that enhances the feeling of space within the 1,195 square foot floor plan. The clustering of all three bedrooms on a single level supports a practical, single-story living arrangement, while a dedicated mudroom and laundry area provide direct utility to the household.
Construction features include a full unfinished basement, which offers potential for future expansion or climate-controlled storage beyond the primary living area. The structural design utilizes a traditional framing approach, ensuring durability and ease of construction for this size category. The 8:12 roof pitch contributes to the overall vertical aesthetic while ensuring effective drainage and classic exterior proportions.
A front-load 2-car garage provides 430 square feet of vehicle and storage capacity, maintaining a clean street-facing elevation.
