The McDonell I: A great family timberframe home with Great Room and wraparound verandah

A great family home with a wraparound porch or verandah — a place to sit in or out of the sun, a safe place for kids to play, and doesn't it show the world that beautiful, solid timberframe!

This three-bedroom house features a vaulted Great Room with windows on three sides. Post and beam arches lead to it from the spacious foyer. There is a downstairs bedroom with an outside door and adjacent bath, which in your working years might serve as an office or clinic, or allow an older or physically challenged person to live on one level. French doors open to the porch from the dining room and the downstairs bedroom.

Upstairs are two large bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a corridor overlooking the Great Room.

The McDonell II is a variation of this plan.
