They’re developing the kit for the Grand Rapids market, where there are many open city lots awaiting reconstruction. But their plan is to offer the house to a wider audience - and why not? With just over 830sf on the first floor, and 500sf on the second floor - the house is designed to be an efficient way for folks to build a new home while keeping an eye on budget.

There are also options to the design - with the idea to create some flexibility and diversity among the designs while still keeping the basic building form. These include a taller wall which gives a bit more room upstairs, a full wrap front porch, a dedicated entry vestibule for a bit more room at the entry, a bay window on the front of the home for some architectural interest, and different siding choices and designs.
