 Great Book! May 10, 2004
28 out of 28 found this review helpful
This is the best house plan book I've found. We've looked at several and found that most books must share the same plan database. This book actually has plans that we didn't find in other books, and the fact that there is a color photo or illustration for each one makes it that much better. We haven't ordered a plan yet, so I'm not sure of the quality of the blueprints or materials list, but if they're as good as the book, I'd be happy!

We couldn't agree on the type of house we wanted so we spent hours inspecting the hundreds of house plans in this book, mentally taking ideas from one and adding them to others. Having color pictures of the finished product makes it easy to identify those you like. In the end we were able to compromise; I gave up the two-story idea for the more practicle one-story, and we've created a wing for privacy. Rather than buy individual plans we'll take our cut & paste ideas to an architech (someday). If nothing else, browsing through the book initiated a lot of conversation about our lifestyle what's important to us as individuals. Great fun.
Title is accurate. October 29, 2005

When I bought this book I just thought it was one of those magazine style things printed on cheap paper.Wrong! This book is huge! Colour photos and colour illustrations throughout.Floor plans of all types,almost.Not many homeplans here to suit the lower budgets.
Overall,this book is the best.Great quality,good value and its huge.There are a lot of homes here so you will find something you like.Its worth the money.

Yes, I gave this book 5 stars, but there are somethings I wish that were added. Those include plans for homes 4500sqft+. Most are 2500-3500. The book could use more of the in-depth design areas (Like Master Bedroom, Kitchen, etc...) There are "tips" spread throughout the plans, and I really enjoy the color photos with room specs on the floor plans. It can keep my 5 stars, but please add the above items to keep getting those stars in future additions.

Tryig to find a house with everything you want will hardly happen! The New Ultimate book of Homeplans has a variety of sq. ft. homes, suitable for any part of the country, beit CT or TX. I skimmed through the book with ease, marking each page that had a plan that seemed to suit my needs. I then narrowed my search by revisiting each page and 'deleting' the ones unsuitable for my needs.
Each page is well laid out and easy to follow, for a novice like myself. I would recommend this book to anyone looking to build a home from just over 1,000sf to around 6,000sf.
I still have to find a piece of land to build my perfect house, but at least I now have an idea as to which perfect houseplan to choose.
