Buildable plan: Willow Plan 40-9, Jacamar at Waterston Central, Gilbert, AZ 85298

This is a special kind of place: wide-open living spaces where options like center-pull glass sliders make the sightlines shine, from the foyer to the back of the covered outdoor patio. The upstairs is airy, too, with a stairway up to a ready-for-anything loft surrounded by the very generous primary suite and three more bedrooms—all but one with a walk-in closet. And speaking of walking in, enter this home through the 3-bay tandem garage, and find a huge space—part pantry, part drop zone, and you decide which gets the lion's share of the square footage. Bigger pantry for the foodies, bigger drop zone for the hockey team. Coin toss, anyone? This home is LEED Certified®, Energy Star® certified and has an energy-efficient HERS Rating of 57.
