The Groen demonstrates a great use of space while providing large open family areas. The living space in the Groen is 2,064 square feet with three large bedrooms with the possibility of four. The exterior has a wholesome look with a covered porch on one side and the chimney in the middle with windows on each side.

The great room is the first room seen when entering the home. A fireplace separates the living and dining rooms. An overhead fan has been installed in the middle of the great room for circulation of air.

The kitchen is settled into the rear corner of the great room. Facing the dining area is an eating bar that runs the length of the kitchen counter. A large walk-in pantry is on the rear corner of the kitchen.

A full bath with a tub is located beside bedroom 2, with easy access from the other rooms. A linen closet between the bedrooms is convenient to the utility room. Both bedrooms are large with big wall closets. The utility, behind a hall door, has a large sink with overhead cabinets. A door opens to the back deck, handy for the optional spa if installed.

The master suite completes this individual home. The main suite is very large, with its own private built-in entertainment center and a large walk-in closet. The private bath has an oversized oval tub and shower, along with a single sink and a linen closet.

The Groen does not have an attached garage, however one could be added. This home is fairly narrow and not too deep, ideal for many of the odd-shaped lots that are available for building. Overall, this home would be great for the larger family, or for the empty nester.
