This modern ranch serves up effortless, stair-free living with style to spare. At 2,321 square feet all on one level, Dawn Redwood centers everyday life around an airy great room — complete with vaulted ceilings, a statement fireplace, and seamless flow to dining area and spacious kitchen. Slide the doors open and relax into a secluded, 354-square-foot courtyard where an outdoor fireplace sets the mood for beautiful evenings and easy entertaining.
A vaulted primary suite is tucked away at the rear for privacy, with a spa-like bath and generous closet. A light-filled study with French doors and courtyard access keeps work close to the action but never in the way, while an additional bedroom and 2.5 baths round out this highly livable plan. The side-entry garage offers two full bays plus a smaller “toy” bay for a golf cart, motorcycles, e-bikes, or extra gear. Clean modern detailing brings it all together in a home that feels polished, welcoming, and built for your life.

Questions About Dawn Redwood:
What's included in my plan purchase, and what's handled locally?
Every Rocky Mountain Plan Company plan is a complete digital plan set: floor plans, exterior elevations, cross-sections, roof ridge plan, foundation layout, and electrical plan. You choose PDF or CAD at checkout, and a single-use build license is included.
A few things are handled locally by design, because they depend on your lot, climate, and code: the site plan showing where the home sits, site-specific structural engineering, mechanical/plumbing/HVAC drawings, energy calculations, and a professional stamp if your state requires one (states including CA, NY, NJ, IL, and NV often do). Your builder, engineer, and subcontractors add these during the build. It's the normal division of labor in residential construction, not a gap in the plans. See exactly what's in every plan set →
Are these plans stamped by an engineer?
Our plans don't come pre-stamped, and that's standard across the pre-drawn plan industry, not a gap in the design. Most jurisdictions require a licensed local engineer to review the plans for your specific site conditions (snow load, wind zone, seismic zone, soil) and apply their stamp before issuing a building permit. Mountain and hillside lots especially tend to trigger this. If you'd like a referral to a trusted engineering firm, just ask. How engineering and permitting work →
Can I preview the plan before buying?
We offer Bid Sets for $500. A Bid Set includes the floor plans and elevation views, labeled "Not For Construction," and is ideal for getting an initial cost estimate from a builder before committing to the full plan. If you move forward, the $500 applies as credit toward your full plan purchase. Contact us to request a Bid Set →
PDF or CAD: Which do I need?
PDF works for most builds — ready to print and share with contractors and inspectors, suitable when no significant changes are needed. CAD files (.dwg) are fully editable and the preferred format if you're making meaningful modifications, or your designer or engineer wants to work directly in the files. Buying CAD also includes the PDF set. Not sure? Start with PDF, you can always come back and add CAD later. Full comparison: PDF vs. CAD →
Can I modify or mirror this plan?
Yes, and it's completely expected. Most buyers change at least something. Your best first call is a local designer, architect, or engineer who knows your area's codes and site conditions. Modifications range from minor on-site builder adjustments and redline markups to CAD-level layout changes and full redesigns. See how modifications work →
If you simply want to flip the layout to suit your lot or view, choose a right-reading reverse when adding the plan to your cart. This will mirror the plan while keeping every dimension and note readable. For anything more, reach out and we'll point you in the right direction. How right-reading reverse works →
What does the build license allow?
Your purchase includes a Single-Structure License: the right to build this plan once, on one lot. You can print as many copies as your build team needs and share them with your builder, engineer, and municipality for that project.
Planning to build more than once? An Unlimited Building License is available for selection now or any time after. Plain-English license overview →
How soon do I get my plans?
Standard digital delivery is 1–2 business days after your signed license, Monday through Friday. (Weekend orders begin processing Monday.) Add-ons like a right-reading reverse or an alternate foundation add 3–4 business days. Files are delivered by email once your license is signed.
