The New Ultimate Book of Home Plans Paperback – January 1, 2007

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.

I bought this book for fun so I can look at potential home layouts, I didnt realize that you got so much for your money. There are so many layouts to look at and get ideas from that I was a little overwelmed at first, but it defintely prepares you for when you are ready to meet with a contractor and design your own home. This will help if its your first or fifth home.

Although I'm one of those people who enjoys looking at house plans, I bought this book for a slightly different reason. One the kidlets in my family is a 6 year old who plans to become an architect/builder when he grows up. Since this is going on the fourth year of that master plan, I think he may actually be destined for it. So for his birthday, I got this book for him as one of his gifts. He loves it! He keeps it up in his bedroom and studies the plans. When he decides to build something, he brings the book down to use as one of his "reference" books (his other main book is  New Complete Do-It-Yourself Manual ). I see that he's incorporating the various floor plans now when he's building with his Legos, whereas previously he was mainly concerned with the exterior shape when building with the various construction toys he has.So although it's a rather unusual use for this book, if you've got a construction-mad kid in your family, this book is a good choice for a gift.

I own three books filled with house plans so far: 1295 best-selling, lowe's best-selling and lowe's ultimate book of home plans. All three are fantastic. High recommend. Tons of plans in great detail. Big and heavy book, but you wont find much better. Many plans also include a front view of the finished house and the pages are large enough to see the details in the plans.

Very large book with lots of plans. Most of the houses were very nice but some of them seemed unfinished and hard to comprehend. When a house is listed as a single level house and most of the bedrooms are on a upstairs or lower level of the house doesn't make much sense. Many good ideas though.

This book is awesome, it's full of so many different house plans you are bound to find a nice house to build. However my wife has found about 50 house plans she likes.. Lol but this is def a good book I would recommend if your looking to build a house.

The book was better than described its more new than used and delivered faster than expected, book has all I need to start the process for my first home.. Thanks

Whatever your reason for purchasing this book, it's beautiful. The pictures are clear and visible. The home plans are very detailed. I love that there are tips and tricks on how to decorate your home, as well as the home plans. It is a bit heavy, but boy it's worth it.

Albeit this is primarily aimed at the USA in terms of plans and styles, it is no less of a source of inspiration for UK self builders....definitely recommend it as a source of ideas.

リフォームにあたり家の外観のイメージを得たくて、値段も安いので購入しました。これはアメリカの住宅カタログでしょうか。分厚い本で、日本人の感覚からすると豪邸ばかりがたくさん載っている。まあ、屋根、外壁やよろい戸（我が家は普通の雨戸ですが）の色使いは参考になりました。

Great service has given me lots to think of as there is so many outstanding designs would recommend buying this if you are thinking of building your own house.

It was all USA type development but that was my error. The service was good if the book was wrong

good
