The home has a two-car garage; three bedrooms; living and dining areas; and a bonus room and den option. It's in a gated community with pools and a lake and is available for under $250,000. The plan includes a Country French, Italianate and Spanish elevation.
"The Spanish probably doesn't really compliment a French colonial," says Dave Maldonado, architect and partner at the KTGY Group, Irvine, Calif., who worked on this plan, "but it enabled Trend Homes to come in with a price sensitive innovation because the architecture for a Spanish style is very simple in nature."
