When it comes to building the perfect home, many homeowners can overlook the importance of having enough storage space. Ample storage area house plans ensure that the owners have enough space to store all of their belongings comfortably and conveniently; without sacrificing any living areas for storage or clutter. Depending on the owners' needs, this can happen in various ways, making ample storage areas in home plans an incredibly versatile option for any family size or budget.

One of the most common and least complicated methods is incorporating more closets and cabinets throughout the home. Some homes include linen or utility closets at strategic locations, such as at the end of hallways, entryways, near mudrooms, garages, etc.; others eliminate hallways to allow each bedroom to have more oversized closets.

Another method these house plans to use to provide ample storage areas is to expand and reposition the kitchen to allow for pantries, especially walk-in pantries, and multiple cabinets. Open floor plans, a popular choice among today’s homeowners, can include many hidden storage areas seamlessly built into the home. A kitchen island can have cabinets and drawers to store dishes or additional appliances. In contrast, the living space can have a built-in bookshelf and include furniture that has storage compartments.

Ample storage areas house plans also use basements to create larger open areas that can hold more oversized and oddly-shaped items while staying out of sight from the rest of the home. Other ample storage areas house plans use sloped roofs to create attics or 1½-story homes that offer upstairs storage rooms and areas for shelving, etc.
