Its open layout makes it ideal for hosting guests or relaxing on one of the two covered porches. Additional features include a dedicated study, a generously sized walk-in pantry, and a roomy kitchen, all of which add to the flexibility and customization options of this versatile home plan.

EasyBuy℠ Financing

Typically, building a new home involves a construction loan from a bank, credit union, or other financial institution - not with Tilson. If you build with Tilson you don’t need a separate construction loan or interim financing to build a home on your lot.
