Terrace Level Plans

Garrell Associates has a growing collection of master on the main and ranch plans that also utilize the “terrace level”, also known as basement, for finished/expandable space. The natural condition of a sloping lot often requires an extensive foundation system usually in the form of a basement or an extremely high crawl space. Designing usable space into this lower level “terrace” is an extremely effective and economical way to achieve space.
The terrace level is a great place for homeowners to let their imaginations free to create specialized areas for both family and individual usage.
Garrell Associates terrace level plans have incorporated a broad variety of spaces as per the list below:
•Theaters
•Social Rooms with Fireplaces

The list can become almost endless with the type of activities that our modern families have come to enjoy.
