Is this the right plan for you?

Most regret comes from buying a plan that doesn't fit your life. Skim this before you decide.

Great fit if you…
  • Want a second-floor master suite away from guest bedrooms (owner's suite upstairs with private bath and walk-in closet)
  • Love covered outdoor living and year-round entertaining (screened porch 120 sq. ft., deck 96 sq. ft., covered front porch 98 sq. ft.)
  • Need flexibility to add finished space for a media room or guest suite (366 sq. ft. unfinished recreation room)
  • Appreciate a dramatic entry with architectural presence (two-story foyer with soaring ceilings)
  • Want separate sleeping zones—owner's retreat upstairs, guest rooms accessible below
  • Working with a moderately sized lot (50 feet wide by 40 feet 9 inches deep)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need all living space on one floor (two-story design with bedrooms and recreation areas on upper level)
  • Want a first-floor master suite for single-level living (master is on the second floor)
  • Prefer the recreation room finished and ready immediately (366 sq. ft. is unfinished)
  • Need more than 3 bedrooms finished on day one (2 upstairs bedrooms plus unfinished recreation area)
  • Have a very narrow lot under 50 feet wide (plan requires 50 feet)
  • Don't want the climbing stairs to access the owner's suite and two bedrooms

About this plan

A Two-Story Craftsman with Master Suite Upstairs

This elegant Craftsman house plan showcases timeless architectural character across 1,996 sq. ft. of heated living space. The home features a dramatic two-story foyer that immediately establishes a sense of openness and elegance upon entry. The first floor encompasses an open-concept design with a fireplace-anchored family room, kitchen with eating bar and wall pantry, breakfast area, and formal dining room. A utility room, first-floor laundry, and powder room complete the main level's practical layout.

Upstairs, the second floor houses three bedrooms with the owner's suite as a true retreat—featuring a private bath with double vanity and a walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms share a full bathroom. An exceptional unfinished recreation room (366 sq. ft.) offers future flexibility. Outdoor living is abundant: a 98 sq. ft. covered front porch, 120 sq. ft. screened porch, and 96 sq. ft. deck. Built on a crawl space foundation with 2x4 framing, the home measures 50 feet wide by 40 feet 9 inches deep and rises 30 feet 11½ inches.
