What Comes Standard in an Odyssey Home, and What Is an Upgrade?

By Odyssey Homes · October 30, 2026

The short answer

Every Odyssey Homes floor plan comes with 15 standard features, including air conditioning, granite or quartz countertops, 9-foot main floor ceilings, tile shower surrounds and LVP on the main floor, plus a 3-car garage. Each plan also includes its own extras, like a covered patio or dormers. Everything beyond that, such as a finished basement, a fireplace or upgraded siding, is an upgrade priced as its own line.

"Standard" means very different things from builder to builder. Here is exactly what comes in an Odyssey home at the base price, what each plan adds on its own, and the upgrades buyers in Ammon, Idaho Falls and the rest of Eastern Idaho add most often.
