Perfect Plans for the Perfect House!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
The perfect book for dreamers. I bought this book years ago, and even though I still haven't built my dream house, I pull this book out over and over again. It inspires me to keep on saving for my private castle. The plans in this book are beautiful. When I do have enough money saved, I will only have one problem, I'm not going to know which remarkable plan to use; they're all so wonderful.
Great book! Much better than others
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
My husband and I are getting ready to build our own house and as such have purchased a lot of house plan books - learning after the first couple purchased that they all contain basically the same flor plans. This book on the other hand was a great find as we had not seen the vast majority of plans in it, but were also very pleased to find it full of very unique, aesthetically pleasing and even practical building ideas. I highly recommend this book - hands down over any other one I've seen.
Hillside/Sloping lots neglected (somewhat)
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This book is great if you're building on flat or very gently sloping terrain. The cross section of plans can fit most lots and the plans are very high quality either as is or as an inspiration for your own design. If you're looking for ideas for a sloping lot this is not the book. The section on hillside homes is really poor especially for a book of 500 plans!

I think this book was great,and encourage people looking for houses to buy it. I'm looking for a new house and it helped me.
