A Walk Through The Hilldale

The Hilldale is the sort of home that you’d expect to find tucked away in a quiet European hamlet, surrounded by country cottage gardens that are always in bloom. Each day as you return from work, you’ll be filled with delight as you round the bend and the Hilldale’s gables come into view. This is the moment you’ve been looking forward to all day: Park the car in the garage, and then settle in on the back patio and enjoy the fresh air and the rolling hills of the countryside.

The Hilldale’s interior is just as delightful as its exterior. The kitchen, dining room and great room are one large, open area, which gives you a wonderful sense of space. High ceilings lend a grandiose feeling to this area. Once you light a fire in the fireplace and set up an enormous Christmas tree in the great room’s front windows, you’ll feel like you’re living in a holiday resort rather than a home. Best of all, even if you’re hard at work in the kitchen, you’ll still have a great view of the beautiful space you've created.

Just beyond the kitchen, before you reach the back patio, you’ll find a half bathroom and a combination mudroom and laundry room. Not only will you have an organized place to take care of the weekly washing, but your whole family will have a spot to come inside, take off their shoes and clean up after a day of working or playing outside.

You’ll come to love how the Hilldale’s upper floor makes excellent use of the available space. Let your kids pick out their favorite bedrooms and then you can use any remaining bedrooms as a home office, a studio or even a small study. Your children will have access to a spacious bathroom with plenty of shelving for their favorite bath-time thing, and his-and-hers sinks so they won’t have to fight over who brushes their teeth first in the morning or at bedtime.

The master suite lets you get away from it all. When you need to relax, go for a hot soak in the large spa tub or enjoy a cool rinse in the beautifully tiled shower. Find the things you need to get ready for bed, then curl up under the covers and watch through the windows as the moonlight shines down on the peaceful countryside.

Craftsman

The Mascord collection of craftsman house plans highlight features that were first introduced with the Arts and Crafts movement, which thrived from 1876-1915, and continues to be celebrated today. These homes have great curb appeal, lots of detail and the amenities you need for modern living. Check out the collection for more great home designs.

European

Some of the features of this home are 'European'. European homes come in many guises, since the term reflects homes styled after those in many countries; English Tudor, French Country, and Dutch Gable, to name a few. Beyond the country of origin, there's also the period of history from which the style emerged; Georgian, Victorian, Greek Revival; the list is almost endless. The homes shown in the collection below feature elements inspired by those found in countries across the Atlantic.

Neighborhood Design

Plans in our Traditional Neighborhood Design collection emphasize people-friendly features and development of community.  If that sounds like you, you should definitely check out these designs and make sure you're building in a development that suits your lifestyle. The houses are traditional in style, and many contain front porches and garages located at the rear of the home so they are perfect for you.

Traditional

Traditional homes freely borrow from a number of historic styles and combine them to relay a new expression. Many historic styles are also 'traditional' in nature, and are incorporated into the Mascord Collection. Colonial, Tudor, Craftsman, Cape Cod - in this collection of home plans you'll discover floor plans that reflect modern lifestyles with spacious rooms, flexible spaces and modern conveniences, but mixed with distinct architectural flair, curb appeal and modern aesthetic. Expect elements such as free-flowing kitchens, breakfast nooks, and family room combinations.

Will This Design Work For Your Location?

The base code requires that the design of your structure meet certain requirements. The code allows for a couple of ways to meet these requirements. The first method is known as "prescriptive" wall bracing, and is built into the code as prescribed building elements that must be included at specified positions of the building. Prescriptive methods are acceptable as long as the structure's design fits within certain limitations (wall height, window size/location, etc.). The second method is to demonstrate, by engineering analysis, the forces imposed upon the structure, and the design of structural elements to withstand those forces. Whereas the prescriptive method imposes certain limitations on the design of the structure, the engineering analysis of the building allows for greater flexibility in the design, while ensuring it can withstand the actual natural forces the structure will experience.

In almost all cases, Mascord designs will require site specific engineering analysis. This analysis is required to be conducted by a professional, such as a structural engineer, who is licensed by the state in which the structure will be built. The analysis is specific to the exact building site - for this reason, we do not have "pre-engineered" plans that can be built anywhere. An engineer will need to review the plans and provide an engineering analysis report and additional drawings and specifications to go along with your plans for permit submittal. You should allow for additional time and expense to complete this process.

Some regions have additional engineering requirements, such as earthquake-prone areas of California and the Pacific Northwest, or the Gulf, Florida, & Carolina coasts that are frequented by hurricanes. Additional Wind and Seismic engineering drawings are required to accompany your home plans to obtain a building permit in most areas. These additional drawings need to be provided and stamped by a professional licensed in your state. In most cases we have working relationships established with engineers who can help you obtain the necessary drawings cost effectively, or you are welcome to source your own local engineer.

When the design includes retaining walls, these will also require engineering. Although the code provides for some prescriptive basement and concrete/masonry wall designs, these only work in limited situations. The use of site-engineered retaining walls allows for much greater design flexibility and ensures that the walls are designed specifically for the design loads, unique soils, fluid pressures, and drainage characteristics at the building site. It makes little sense to place the most expensive investment a family typically makes onto a foundation that is not designed for the unique characteristics of the land on which it is set.

All Mascord house plans are designed and detailed to conform to The International Residential Code (for orders out of state), or Oregon and Washington local state codes (for orders in those states).

Your area may have also have specific energy codes that have to be followed. Compliance could include filling out forms providing evidence that your construction drawings meet requirements. In many cases the forms are simple and can be filled out by yourself, or with the aid of your General Contractor.

To find out exactly what drawing details you should expect with your Mascord house plans, see "What's included in a Plan Set?"

If you aren’t sure what may be required, contact your building department and ask for a list of all of the items they require to submit for and obtain a building permit.

We typically calculate and provide sizing of beams for a snowload of 25 psf. You may need beams sized to accommodate larger roof loads specific to your region. We are able to help with this; please speak with our sales staff to discuss your options.

Building jurisdictions in several states - including California, New York, New Jersey, Nevada and Illinois - require that your home design is reviewed and your entire set of construction drawings is stamped by a local professional. If you are building in such an area, it is most likely you will need to hire a state licensed structural engineer to analyze the design and provide additional drawings and calculations required by your local building department.

In addition to the construction drawings, you may also need a site plan that shows where the house is going to be located on your chosen property, along with any grading and water management / septic system requirements.

Although we make every effort to ensure the accuracy of our design information, we reserve the right to make corrections on our floor plans or elevations as needed.
