Economy Ranch Emphasizes Practical Affordable Design
The three bedroom Economy Ranch by architect Samuel Paul uses a simple rectangular Design S-70 footprint on a small lot to reduce costs while preserving curb appeal. A right angled one car garage, front walk, large roof overhang, and vertical battens create an inviting exterior, with a central foyer guiding access to a combined kitchen family area and a spacious living dining room. The layout includes two baths, two additional bedrooms, two possible garage configurations, and optional electric heat with a chimney if used, all aimed at economical, attractive, functional living.
