The Van Wert is a Tudor-style cottage featuring 2,799 sq ft of total heated living area, optimized for narrow lots with a 38-foot width and 86'10" depth. The exterior maintains a clean, historic aesthetic through a rear-load 2-car garage, which measures 484 sq ft and preserves the front-facing architectural profile. The design achieves a maximum building height of 23'5" with an 8:12 roof pitch, contributing to a classic exterior silhouette.
The first floor encompasses 2,002 sq ft, anchored by a two-story grand room that increases interior light penetration and vertical volume. This level includes a primary suite positioned for privacy, a flex room suitable for a home office, and an open-concept kitchen equipped with a large walk-in pantry. The layout utilizes a split-bedroom configuration to maintain separation between the primary suite and secondary living areas, while an integrated mud room and laundry zone provide direct access points for daily utility.
Occupying 797 sq ft, the second floor serves as a secondary living level containing two bedrooms, a full bathroom, a loft, and a dedicated media room. Both the first and second levels feature 8-foot ceiling heights, ensuring consistent vertical scale throughout the home. This floor plan is designed to separate sleeping quarters from the main social core, providing a quiet environment for guests or family members.
Constructed to balance traditional aesthetic elements with a practical footprint, the home utilizes a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom configuration. The structural design focuses on maximizing the internal floor area while maintaining efficient circulation between the kitchen, dining, and living zones. The inclusion of a rear-load garage allows for a more compact lot frontage without sacrificing vehicle storage or access requirements.
