Lessons from the Tarleton Design

  • Dedicated Kitchen Space Improves Function: Separating the kitchen from living area creates better workflow for cooking
  • Vaulted Ceilings Add Perceived Space: High ceilings in the main room make small floor plans feel larger
  • Dual Lofts Maximize Vertical Space: Sleeping loft plus storage loft above entry uses all available height
  • Small Porches Extend Living: Even a minimal front porch provides transition space and outdoor seating
  • Similar Plans Offer Layout Options: Comparing the Tarleton to the Lusby shows how kitchen placement changes room dynamics

    I’m sorry, but I just can’t get into someone buying a LH for $50K. I have no use for houses like this. It reminds me of NASCAR at it’s inception. Everyone could afford to race a car then. Now you have to be millionaires to do so. This is my opinion, and I might be in the minority, but that’s my story and I’m sticking to it. I’d rather see the houses that people put together themselves or with families and friends, using some materials that are recycled or re purposed. To each his own I guess. Peace.

      I totally agree. The whole idea is for people to save money, be self sustaining, and have some freedom. Now it’s the “in thing” and now expensive. What the heck?
