This beautiful 2,358 square foot Craftsman home combines farmhouse-inspired curb appeal with a highly practical one-story floor plan. It offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, 1 half bathroom, a main-level owner’s suite, home office, 396-square-foot bonus room, open great room, fireplace, kitchen island, walk-in pantry, dining nook, mudroom with lockers, main-level laundry, covered front porch, covered rear porch, and a 2-car side-entry garage.
The entire 2,358 square feet of heated living space is located on the first floor, while the bonus room above the garage provides an additional 396 square feet of flexible space. The bonus area also includes a full bathroom and closet, making it suitable for a guest suite or additional bedroom. 0
The home measures approximately 67 feet 6 inches wide by 65 feet 4 inches deep, with a maximum height of 28 feet. It uses a strong 9:12 main roof pitch that gives the exterior a substantial Craftsman presence. 1
The exterior mixes white board-and-batten siding with natural materials, window-panel details, and a covered front porch. Around back, a matching covered porch extends the home’s outdoor living area. 2
Inside, the layout is organized around an open central living space, while the split-bedroom arrangement keeps the owner’s suite private from the two secondary bedrooms.
It is the sort of house that quietly checks a lot of boxes.
Exterior & First Impressions
The exterior combines Craftsman detailing with a farmhouse-inspired appearance.
White board-and-batten siding creates a clean backdrop, while natural material accents add warmth and visual contrast. The covered front porch gives the home a welcoming character and provides a sheltered transition into the foyer.
The home features:
- Craftsman exterior styling
- Farmhouse-inspired exterior character
- White board-and-batten siding
- Natural material accents
- Covered front porch
- Covered rear porch
- Side-entry 2-car garage
- Garage storage room
- 9:12 main roof pitch
- Large exterior windows
- 67 ft 6 in overall width
- 65 ft 4 in overall depth
- 28 ft maximum height
The side-entry garage is particularly useful for the front elevation.
Instead of having garage doors dominate the facade, the home can present itself primarily as a Craftsman residence.
That keeps the porch, windows, rooflines, and natural material details in the spotlight.
Entry & Interior Flow
The vaulted front porch leads into a 10-foot foyer with a coat closet and an open flex space that can function as a home office. 3
From the foyer, the open floor plan becomes immediately apparent.
The main level includes:
- 10-foot foyer
- Open floor plan
- Split-bedroom layout
- Three bedrooms
- Two full bathrooms
- One half bathroom
- Main-level owner’s suite
- Home office/flex space
- Great room
- Gas-log fireplace
- Built-in shelving
- Kitchen island
- Walk-in pantry
- Dining nook
- Mudroom
- Mudroom lockers
- Main-level laundry
- Covered front porch
- Covered rear porch
- 2-car side-entry garage
- 396 sq ft bonus room
- Full bathroom and closet in bonus area
The floor plan uses a split-bedroom arrangement.
The owner’s suite is positioned away from the two secondary bedrooms, creating privacy.
The great room, kitchen, and dining nook form the central social zone.
The garage connects through the mudroom, keeping everyday household traffic organized.
Great Room – Fireplace, Built-Ins & Open Living
The great room is the heart of the home.
It features:
- Non-vented gas-log fireplace
- Built-in shelving
- Open relationship with kitchen
- Open relationship with dining area
- Large windows
- Comfortable family gathering space
The gas-log fireplace creates a natural focal point.
Built-in shelving beside the fireplace provides practical storage and a place for books, artwork, photographs, media equipment, and decorative pieces.
The open relationship between the great room and kitchen allows the living area to remain connected to the home’s main activity.
Someone can prepare dinner while still participating in the conversation.
Children can move between the living room and kitchen.
Guests can gather around the island without being separated from everyone else.
That is exactly where open-concept design earns its keep.
Kitchen – Large Island & Walk-In Pantry
The corner kitchen is designed to provide generous workspace without becoming isolated from the rest of the home.
It includes:
- Large center island
- Generous countertop space
- Extensive cabinetry
- Large walk-in pantry
- Open connection with great room
- Connection with dining nook
The kitchen island adds another major work surface and can provide seating for casual meals.
It can also serve as a homework station, serving counter, food-preparation area, or gathering point.
The large walk-in pantry provides dedicated storage for groceries and kitchen equipment.
That means the main kitchen does not need to carry every appliance and food item on its countertops.
For a three-bedroom family home, this is a very practical feature.
Dining Nook – Sunlit Corner Dining
The dining nook occupies a bright corner of the main living area and features a sloped ceiling. 4
It provides:
- Dedicated everyday dining space
- Sunlit corner location
- Sloped ceiling
- Kitchen connection
- Great-room connection
- Informal entertaining space
The nook is ideal for everyday family meals.
The kitchen island can handle quick breakfasts, while the dining nook provides a more traditional table setting.
Because it remains open to the main living area, the dining space feels connected rather than isolated.
Owner’s Suite – Private Main-Level Retreat
The owner’s suite is positioned away from the secondary bedrooms, giving it a strong sense of privacy.
It includes:
- Main-level owner’s bedroom
- Tray ceiling
- Large owner’s bathroom
- Large walk-in closet
- Direct laundry access
- Split-bedroom privacy
The tray ceiling adds architectural interest and creates additional visual height in the bedroom.
The suite is designed as more than simply a place to sleep.
Its relationship with the large bathroom, walk-in closet, and laundry room creates an efficient private zone.
The direct access from the closet to the laundry is especially useful.
Clothes can move from the bedroom to the laundry and back again without crossing the entire house.
Laundry suddenly has a very short commute.
Primary Bathroom – Spacious Owner’s Bath
The owner’s bathroom is described as having an exceptionally generous amount of space.
It provides:
- Large private bathroom
- Double vanity potential
- Large bathing area
- Private ensuite access
- Convenient relationship with owner’s closet
The generous bathroom helps create a more luxurious owner’s suite.
Because it is separated from the secondary bathroom, homeowners have a private space for their morning and evening routines.
Primary Closet – Large Walk-In with Laundry Access
The owner’s suite includes a large walk-in closet with a particularly useful feature: sliding-door access directly to the laundry room. 5
This arrangement creates an efficient clothing-care workflow.
Clothes can move from the bedroom into the closet.
Dirty clothing can move into the laundry.
Clean clothing can return directly into the closet.
The arrangement minimizes unnecessary walking and makes laundry organization easier.
For homeowners who dislike carrying baskets across the house, this is one of the plan’s quietly brilliant features.
Secondary Bedrooms – Two Equal-Sized Rooms
The two secondary bedrooms are designed with identical sizing, creating a fair and flexible bedroom arrangement. 6
They provide:
- Two secondary bedrooms
- Equal-sized layouts
- Closet storage
- Natural-light opportunities
- Shared bathroom access
- Privacy from the owner’s suite
For children, the identical sizing is especially useful.
Neither bedroom automatically becomes the “big bedroom.”
For homeowners without children, the rooms can easily become guest rooms, hobby rooms, study spaces, or additional offices.
Secondary Bathroom – Dual Vanities & Linen Storage
The secondary bedrooms share a full hall bathroom with dual vanities and additional linen closets. 7
It provides:
- Two vanity sinks
- Shared full bathroom
- Additional linen storage
- Easy bedroom access
- Convenient guest access
Dual vanities make mornings easier when multiple family members are getting ready simultaneously.
The additional linen closets also reduce the need to store towels and bathroom supplies elsewhere.
Half Bathroom – Convenient Guest Powder Room
The home includes one half bathroom located near the mudroom and garage entry.
This creates a convenient guest facility without requiring visitors to enter the private bedroom areas.
It is especially useful during gatherings.
Guests can find a restroom without wandering through the sleeping quarters.
Home Office / Flex Space – Flexible Work Area
The open flex space near the foyer can function as a home office. 8
It provides a useful dedicated area for:
- Remote work
- Home administration
- Homework
- Reading
- Study
- Creative work
Its location near the entrance makes it convenient for someone who works from home and wants some separation from the main living areas.
The flex space can also evolve.
If the household stops needing an office, it could become a reading area, hobby zone, small library, or additional storage space.
Mudroom – Lockers for Everyday Organization
The garage connects to a dedicated mudroom with lockers.
The mudroom is designed to make the transition from vehicle to home much more organized.
It can hold:
- Shoes
- Coats
- Backpacks
- Sports equipment
- Outdoor gear
- Shopping bags
- School supplies
The lockers provide dedicated places for household members to drop everyday items.
This is especially useful for families because it prevents the kitchen and foyer from becoming accidental storage rooms.
Laundry – Directly Connected to the Owner’s Closet
The main-level laundry room is one of the home’s most practical service spaces.
Its standout feature is its direct relationship with the owner’s walk-in closet.
The laundry provides:
- Main-level laundry
- Direct owner’s closet access
- Efficient clothing workflow
- Household utility space
- Convenient bedroom relationship
The direct connection is a smart example of designing around real household routines.
Laundry is not glamorous.
But when the room is placed correctly, it can make everyday life noticeably easier.
Bonus Room – 396 Sq. Ft. Flexible Expansion
Above the garage is a 396-square-foot bonus room with a dormer window view, full bathroom, and closet. 9
This is much more than a generic unfinished attic.
It can function as:
- Additional bedroom
- Guest suite
- Teen retreat
- Media room
- Game room
- Home gym
- Hobby room
- Private office
Because it has its own full bathroom and closet, the bonus room can function particularly well as an additional bedroom or guest suite. 10
That gives the home the flexibility of effectively having another private living zone without changing the main-level three-bedroom arrangement.
The bonus room has a 9-foot ceiling, making it comfortable for regular use. 11
For guests, the upstairs location offers privacy.
For teenagers, it can become a private retreat.
For a family, it can become a game or media room.
The possibilities are broad.
Front Porch – Craftsman Welcome
The covered front porch is one of the home’s defining exterior features.
It provides:
- Protected front entrance
- Outdoor seating potential
- Craftsman curb appeal
- Farmhouse-inspired character
- Weather protection
- Transition space between exterior and interior
The porch helps give the home its strong curb appeal while also creating usable outdoor space.
It can accommodate chairs, planters, seasonal decorations, and a small seating arrangement.
Rear Porch – Outdoor Extension of the Home
The rear of the home mirrors the front and includes a covered rear porch. 12
It provides:
- Covered outdoor seating
- Outdoor dining potential
- Backyard relaxation area
- Weather-protected outdoor living
- Connection with the interior
The rear porch extends the home’s living environment beyond the heated square footage.
It can become an outdoor dining area, sitting space, children’s play zone, or quiet morning retreat.
Garage – 673 Sq. Ft. Side-Entry Two-Car Garage
The home includes a substantial 673-square-foot two-car side-entry garage. 13
It provides:
- Two-car parking
- 673 sq ft garage area
- Side-entry configuration
- Garage storage room
- Workshop potential
- Vehicle storage
- Equipment storage
- Direct mudroom connection
The garage is considerably more than a basic parking enclosure.
The dedicated storage room adds useful capacity for tools, lawn equipment, bicycles, seasonal items, and other household belongings.
The side-entry arrangement also keeps the front elevation visually cleaner.
Storage – Thoughtful Organization Throughout
Storage is distributed throughout the house.
The plan includes:
- Large walk-in kitchen pantry
- Large owner’s walk-in closet
- Direct laundry access from owner’s closet
- Secondary bedroom closets
- Additional bathroom linen closets
- Mudroom lockers
- Garage storage room
- Bonus-room closet
This is a strong storage package for a 2,358-square-foot home.
The pantry handles food.
The owner’s closet handles clothing.
The linen closets handle bathroom supplies.
The mudroom handles everyday family gear.
The garage storage room handles larger equipment.
And the bonus room has its own closet.
The design does not rely on one enormous storage room to solve everything.
Instead, it puts storage close to where the items are actually used.
Foundation & Structural Options
The home can be adapted to several foundation configurations.
Options include:
- Slab foundation
- Crawlspace foundation
- Basement foundation
- Walkout basement foundation
A slab foundation can provide a relatively straightforward construction approach where site conditions allow.
A crawlspace provides access beneath the home for utilities and maintenance.
A basement can create substantial additional space for storage or future living.
A walkout basement can be particularly useful on sloping lots because it provides direct outdoor access from the lower level.
The standard exterior framing is 2×4 wood construction, with an optional 2×6 conversion. 14
