Plan 65567R is a 4-bedroom 2-story Craftsman house plan that pairs American character with a Modern Craftsman look. Within 3251 ft², the home sets a hip and valley roof punctuated by dormers over exterior walls of siding with stone/brick veneer, and it measures 74'6" wide and 79'5" deep. A covered front porch and a defined entry welcome you inside, where the layout is organized for everyday family life.
The heart of this open floor plan is a large family room with a fireplace, crowned by vaulted ceilings that give the main living space generous volume. On a winter evening, the fire becomes the natural gathering point. The family room flows directly into the rear kitchen, a large kitchen built around an island with a breakfast bar for quick meals and casual conversation. A walk-in pantry keeps supplies organized and out of sight, and placing the kitchen at the back of the house connects it to the outdoor living spaces behind.
The main floor master gives the owners single-level living, and the split bedrooms arrangement keeps the master suite apart from the other bedrooms for privacy. The suite includes a walk-in closet and convenient laundry access from the master suite, since the laundry is on the main floor. Two full bathrooms and two half bathrooms serve family and guests. A mudroom off the garage catches coats, boots and backpacks before they reach the living areas. Above the garage, a bonus/flex room is ready to become a playroom, home office, gym or guest space as the family's needs change.
The 2-car garage is designed with a courtyard entry and extends forward, so the garage doors face a courtyard rather than the street and the front elevation keeps its Craftsman detailing. Outdoors, a screened porch offers bug-free evenings, a patio extends the space for grilling and dining, and a balcony adds a private vantage point. The foundation is as shown on the plans, and the design is also available with a crawl space, slab, monolithic slab, stem wall or basement foundation, as well as with 2×6 exterior walls on request.
