The RANCH Home Specialist

Specializing in One Story homes and Master on the Main Level Homes in metro-Atlanta

Have you been looking for that perfect ranch plan?  Maybe with a basement, maybe on a slab foundation?  Or would a floor plan with the master bedroom on the main level fit your needs better?  You've come to the right place.  I specialize in the marketing and sale of ranch-style homes and master on the main (MoM) level homes.  Name the location, name the price range and I can help you find it or build it.

Ranches and MoMs have a big footprint and, therefore, usually require a larger lot than a two story home.  Also, you may know that ranches are more expensive to build than a two story home.  They require more concrete, more roof, a larger lot, etc.  Therefore the $ per square foot on a ranch is more than on a two story.  That's why you will see that a 2400 square foot ranch costs more than a 2400 square foot two story.

You may have heard the term "raised ranch".  Some people call a split foyer a raised ranch, but that is not technically correct.  A split foyer is the type of floor plan where the front door is not on the main level.  When you open the front door, you are greeted with a set of stairs going up to the main level and a set going down to the garage and basement level.  A raised ranch is actually a ranch on a drive-under garage/basement.  The garage is underneath the house with a set of stairs leading up to the main level and the front door is on the main level.

A ranch condo is a new term used to describe those one level homes that may or may not be adjoining other homes, but is owned as a condominium.  Condominium ownership typically implies that you only own the insides of your home, but you pay a monthly fee to a homeowners association to have the exterior of your home, the grounds and any amenities maintained.

Ranches and MoMs are in high demand these days.  They suit a variety of buyers from the single person to the young family with small children to the the empty nesters.  Clearly, they are a great investment.
