Builder's Insight · Max Fulbright Sr.

How I designed this plan.

I designed the Adirondack House Plan as a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath mountain home that puts 2,850 square feet across two stories on a sloping lot with no garage to eat up your footprint. If you want vaulted ceilings, a stone fireplace, open living, and a walkout lower level with a game room, this is the plan I would build on my own mountain lot.

The main level holds 1,570 square feet with a vaulted great room and vaulted master bedroom that give the primary living spaces the volume they deserve. An open living floor plan connects kitchen, dining, and family room naturally, and a stone fireplace anchors the design. Nine-foot ceilings in the standard rooms keep everything feeling proportioned.

The lower level adds 1,280 square feet with a game room, storage, laundry room, and full natural light from the walkout design. Outside, a vaulted screened porch, open deck, grill deck, and lower porch or patio give you outdoor living on every level. At 54 feet 8 inches wide by 48 feet deep on a sloping lake or mountain lot, this plan takes full advantage of grade changes without an oversized footprint.

The optional garage keeps the design flexible. This is a mountain home with the feel of a lodge and the livability of a family home. The Adirondack House Plan is available for $1,495. Similar mountain designs include Wolf Creek, Stonegate, River’s Reach, and Camp Stone.

Common Questions

Before you buy.

What is included in the Adirondack House Plan set?+

Each plan set includes dimensioned floor plans for all levels, front, side, and rear elevations at 1/4" scale with notes and dimensions, a foundation plan for the version supplied, and roof plan. Additional foundation options are available separately and are not included in the plan price. Please inquire before ordering to confirm whether we have the version you need. Available as a PDF plan set ($1,495) or editable CAD files ($1,950). Electrical plans are not included because they are customer-specific and finalized on site with your builder and electrician after framing.

Can the Adirondack House Plan be modified?+

Yes. Modifications are one of the most common services we provide. Our in-house design team handles all modifications directly. Common changes include adjusting bedroom count, resizing rooms, changing exterior materials, or adapting for a specific lot. Typical turnaround is 2 to 4 weeks. Contact Max Fulbright Designs at (770) 301-4214 or [email protected] for a free consultation and quote.

Does the Adirondack House Plan require a structural engineer's stamp?+

Stock plans do not include a professional engineer's stamp. Many US jurisdictions require a licensed engineer in your state to review and stamp the plans before permit submission. Check with your local building department before purchasing. This is a standard industry practice and is not unique to Max Fulbright Designs.

Who designed the Adirondack House Plan?+

The Adirondack House Plan was drawn personally by Max Fulbright Sr., the founder of Max Fulbright Designs. Max is a Georgia Institute of Technology-trained engineer who has designed and personally built more than 500 custom homes since founding the firm in 1990. Every plan in the Max Fulbright Designs catalog is drawn by Max himself.

Can I build the Adirondack House Plan in any US state?+

Yes. Max Fulbright Designs has delivered more than 12,000 plans to homeowners and builders in all 50 US states and Canada. The Adirondack House Plan is drawn to general residential construction standards that work in most US jurisdictions, though local building codes vary and should be reviewed with your builder before construction.
