4.0 out of 5 stars
I love house plans,
By
This review is from: The New Ultimate Book of Home Plans: Lowe's Branded (Paperback)
My mother-in-law sent me this book, along with several others that were published by the same company. I was really excited and have really enjoyed the books. There are a lot of great ideas and the plans are easy to read. The only complaint that I have is that since they have the same publisher, the three books share many of the same house plans. I would suggest getting one of them that has the most plans, and then if you want more ideas, to get a book from a different publisher.

Ultimate home plans,

This review is from: The New Ultimate Book of Home Plans: Lowe's Branded (Paperback)
A very thick book with a lot of home floor plans, but a lot are very similar to each other. I had hoped to see more different styles.

This review is from: The New Ultimate Book of Home Plans: Lowe's Branded (Paperback)
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.
