The Plan: Unusual six-sided home well-suited to lot with view

 The Malzahn is perfect for a hillside lot with its garage located beneath. The right side is elevated on posts with a deck across that area and stairs to the ground. This unusual six-sided home would also be ideal for any area with a view.

A skylight is directly over the entry. To the left of the entry is a coat closet on the outside of the utility room. Incorporated in the utility room is a large pantry.

A full bath with a tub and overhead skylight is next around the six-sided walls, with bedroom 2 beyond. This bedroom is large with a full walk-in closet.

Bookshelves line the library, which is open to the great room. The great room incorporates the living, family and dining rooms. This great room area is vaulted with exposed beams overhead. There are six skylights in the great room, along with four large picture windows, a set of sliding doors and a set of French doors.

The kitchen is to the right of the entry. It contains extras such as a trash compactor, microwave oven and a large island with an eating bar.

The master suite is vaulted with a large walk-in closet to the left of the door and a private bath with a shower and two sinks. Sliding doors provide access to the deck from the master suite.

The stairs to the garage area are in the center of the main room. The two-car garage is arrow-shaped with space at the point end for a small work area or storage.

The Malzahn has 1,873 square feet of open living space. The home generates a feeling of palatial living but still maintains a homey atmosphere.
