Modern Retreat Home Plans: Designed for Living, Perfect for STR Investment


At Greenview Escapes, we design homes that strike the balance between everyday comfort and investment potential. Each plan in our growing collection is crafted to support permanent living while also being optimized for short-term rental (STR) success—meeting the growing demand for thoughtfully designed getaways in high-traffic vacation regions like upstate New York.

Our modern small-home plans are rooted in Scandinavian and minimalist aesthetics, combining clean lines, warm materials, and highly functional layouts. From two-bedroom cottages to flexible retreats with home offices, each model is engineered for durability, simplicity, and elegance—making them ideal for both personal use and STR performance. Whether you're an investor seeking passive income or a homeowner building your dream escape, our curated designs offer clarity, cohesion, and customization.

Explore options with features like vaulted ceilings, full-height sliding glass doors, optional carports, and integrated outdoor living. We believe homes should be beautiful, efficient, and buildable. Let’s create your next modern retreat—one that works for your lifestyle and your investment goals.
