Extreme Makeover: Home Edition Houseplans

So I recently wrote a post on our homepage about a house plan that was featured on ABC's Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (CLICK HERE to view the article).

M-3981 Extreme is pretty amazing. I've never been a huge fan of the "prairie style," but there's something about this home that really catches my attention (in a good way).

To tell you the truth, I'm not a huge fan of the fireplace that seems to have been "plopped" right in the middle of the home -- I'd prefer to have it on one of the walls -- but that isn't a big deal. Bedroom #4 is kinda funky. I don't like the way that the bathroom distorts the shape, but that's not a big deal either.

The only real problem that I have with M-3981 Extreme is the fact that the garage entry is so far away from the kitchen. What happens when you have to carry groceries in from the car? You have to walk all the way from the garage, through the hallway, past the foyer, skirting the great room, and finally you reach the kitchen! What if you have to bring in 2 or 3 loads? You get my point.

I'm also not a sold on the idea that the master bedroom has to share a bath with bedroom #2.

One of the biggest redeeming features, however, is the fact that this home is wheelchair accessible. And just because I don't particularly care for this home doesn't mean anything. I'm just really picky. You should really take some time to Check it out for yourself. You might like it!

If you want to see this home as it was being built, check out the Oklahoma episode of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (aired April 17,2007) -- it really is pretty interesting!
