Hired to Create "Peace of Mind III" Plan

Back in July we were hired to create a new version of the "Peace of Mind" plan which we'll be calling it the "Peace of Mind III" plan (SS001B). The big change to this plan will be the addition of a walk-out basement to the plan and a half bath on the main floor. This is room in the basement for an additional bedroom and a full bath. The first floor was design so you could add the screened porch or the addition bedroom wings on later. Please stay tuned for more updates on this project.
