A good corner, a tired house.

Croydon New Build is a corner lot in Croydon with a large mature tree, a fenced yard and an older house that has seen better days. The listing photos tell the story: dated interiors, a worn deck and overgrown shrubs out front.

What the house does have is a basement worth building on. The plans call for new construction on the existing basement walls, a two-story area over the existing basement, a new one-story living area, removal of the existing porch and a new front porch.

What the plans show

  • ST-1 sheet with plot plan, front elevation and a front rendering of the new home
  • Floor plan sheets for the first and second floors
  • Elevation sheet showing the finished exterior

Why it fits the location-first approach

The location is the asset: a corner lot in an established neighborhood. Reusing sound basement walls where the plans allow it, and replacing everything above, gets a new house on a lot that already works.
