Skippers Den is a 3,438 square foot two-story residence designed to maximize vertical volume on a narrow 39-foot wide lot. This home incorporates a 10:12 roof pitch and a maximum building height of 35 ft 4 in, establishing a distinct profile. The exterior features a 448 square foot covered porch, providing a transition between the streetscape and the interior living areas.
The first floor encompasses 1,788 square feet, anchored by a 10-foot ceiling height that enhances the scale of the open-concept core. This level includes a dedicated home office, a mudroom, and a kitchen featuring a central island that aligns with the breakfast area and keeping room. The layout prioritizes utility through a walk-in pantry and direct access to a 220 square foot rear deck, which extends the usable living area for outdoor access.
Occupying 1,650 square feet, the second level contains five bedrooms and five bathrooms, anchored by a 9-foot ceiling height. A dedicated loft area serves as a flexible zone for media or study use, while the inclusion of a second-floor laundry room streamlines household logistics. The master suite is positioned to provide privacy from the secondary bedrooms while maintaining access to the central landing.
Structural integrity is achieved through 2x6 exterior wall framing and a truss roof system, designed for durability and thermal performance. The home is served by a 600 square foot front-load 2-car garage, which provides sufficient vehicle storage while maintaining a 70-foot house depth. The structural configuration balances interior square footage with a compact footprint to accommodate specific site requirements.
