Exploring the Possibilities of the Rockwall Plan

Custom Homes, Model Homes

In our home portfolio, we offer a range of floor plans with different layouts and styles. Our Rockwall plan is no exception. At 2,831 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, the Rockwall offers everything large or growing families need in a new forever home. The home even comes standard with an oversized 2-car garage and separate storage garage. Check out our previous blog post to learn more about features included in the Rockwall.


One of the most appealing features of this plan is the ability to mix and match predesigned options based on family desires. In this post, we'll go through some of the optional tweaks that families might want to consider:

  • Replacing the Study with Bedroom 4
  • Family Room Cathedral Ceiling
  • Oversized Walk-in Shower as an Alternative to a Soaking Tub
  • Options to Convert the Storage Garage Into Living Area
    • Exercise Room
    • Hobby Room
    • Private Guest Suite
  • Upstairs Bonus Space Options


Replacing the Study with Bedroom 4

The Rockwall plan offers a study off the foyer. For larger families, this space can easily be changed into a bedroom with its entrance from the hallway. Choosing this option will also change the Jack and Jill bathroom layout into one with hallway access instead.





 

Family Room Cathedral Ceiling

The grand family room in the Rockwall already has great natural light and is a large space for entertaining guests. But if you want to feel even more open, consider choosing the cathedral ceiling option.





Oversized Walk-in Shower as an Alternative To a Soaking Tub

The Rockwall master bath features a walk-in shower and a large soaking tub. Some couples prefer not to have a large deep tub in their suite, preferring instead to include the even larger 128" x 46" walk-in shower with dual showerheads.




Options to Convert the Storage Garage Into Living Area

The true versatility of the Rockwall plan can be seen in the customizations available for the storage garage. If you don't need the extra storage space, there are several options to convert this area into more living space for your home. 


Exercise Room

A private exercise room within the master suite can be a great way to get in your daily workouts from the comfort of home. This room will also be great for a private reading area or space to work from home.




Private Guest Suite

The space could also be changed into a separate guest room with access to a full bathroom. This quiet suite away from the other bedrooms would be perfect for hosting friends or family, and it might even make an ideal office if you work remotely. The new layout is sure to give your guests more privacy while staying in your home.



 

Hobby Room

 The hobby room option creates a multifunctional space that can be used for anything from the perfect craft room to a dedicated man cave. It has two entrances, one through the home and another from the covered porch near your garage.





Upstairs Bonus Space

For the home buyer seeking more square footage, an upstairs bonus space is available. This upstairs space features a dedicated theater room, spacious open-concept bonus room, and another full bathroom. The theater room can be easily changed into an extra bedroom if desired. 





The potential of The Rockwall is seemingly endless. Your ability to customize this plan how you want is what makes it so versatile and unique. With just a few custom options, this 2,831 square foot home can be brought up to 3,774 feet. The 3 bedrooms can become up to 6, while the 2.5 bathrooms can be expanded up to 4.
