I’ll walk you through each area so you can imagine how it all fits together.

The Floor Plans:

Floor plan preview

The full floor plan is below.

This plan has 3 levels. Each one is further down this page.

Walk the rooms first. The layout makes a lot more sense once you have seen what each space actually does. Or jump straight to the plan.

Porch

When you arrive, the front porch immediately stands out. It’s wide and deep, set off by sturdy stone columns and red accents that set the tone for the whole house.

There’s plenty of room for a bench or a swing, so you instantly get that welcoming, classic American Craftsman vibe.

Rain or shine, this porch is ready for everything from deliveries and muddy boots to catching up with neighbors.

Foyer

As you enter, the foyer welcomes you with a two-story ceiling and open sight lines.

You’ll notice how easily you can see into the main living spaces, but there’s still enough separation to make this entry feel special.

It isn’t just a hallway—it truly introduces the rest of the home.

Dining Room

Just off the foyer, the dining room features a wide opening that keeps things feeling open, yet it’s clearly its own space.

Dining Room

I like that there’s a direct view to the front windows, so this room stays bright all day.

The size is perfect for a formal table, but it doesn’t feel empty if you’re just having a family dinner.

There’s a nice hint of tradition here, but it stays comfortable and inviting.

Guest Suite

On the other side of the foyer, you’ll find a guest suite that fits a king-sized bed, plus its own private bathroom and closet.

This location near the entry works well if you have in-laws or friends who visit, since they get a bit of privacy away from the main living areas.

Having a full bath attached is a definite plus for overnight guests, or you could use this space as a main-floor office if you don’t need the extra bedroom.

Family Room

At the center of the main level, the family room opens up with a 12-foot coffered ceiling.

Great Room/Living Room

Tall windows arch up toward the trim, pouring natural light into the space. The stone fireplace and built-in shelving add both character and warmth.

This is a spot for movie nights or laid-back mornings. I really appreciate how it connects directly to both the kitchen and the outdoor covered area.

You never feel cut off from the rest of the activity.

Kitchen

The kitchen features a U-shaped layout centered around a large island. There’s seating for three at the raised breakfast bar, perfect for casual meals or chatting while someone cooks.

Kitchen

The cabinetry wraps around the space, giving you plenty of storage, and the stainless appliances keep everything feeling up-to-date.

I really like the open shelving on the island for cookbooks or things you want within easy reach.

This kitchen sits right at the center of the home, with quick access to the breakfast nook and dining room.

Breakfast Area

Just past the island, the breakfast area is tucked into a bay of windows overlooking the backyard.

It’s cheerful and bright, and I’ve found it’s the kind of spot everyone drifts to in the morning.

There’s room for a large table if you want, or you could keep it cozier for quick family meals.

A bar top links the kitchen and breakfast area, making things feel social and connected.

Pantry and Drop Zone

Near the kitchen, you’ll find a walk-in pantry—large enough to really make a difference after a big grocery trip.

Right next to it is a drop zone with hooks and cubbies for coats, bags, and shoes.

This little area between the garage and kitchen is a lifesaver for keeping clutter under control.

Friends Entrance and Powder Room

Around the corner from the drop zone, there’s what’s called the Friends Entrance. Instead of a narrow mudroom, you get a generous hallway with easy access to the powder room.

Master Bathroom

This way, family and close friends can come and go without passing through the formal foyer.

The entrance is right by the garage, which just makes everyday routines smoother.

Laundry

The laundry area is nearby, but set apart enough so noise stays out of the main living spaces.

There’s space for folding, sorting, and even a utility sink. I love not having to haul laundry up and down stairs, and the location really makes daily chores easier.

Three-Car Garage

The three-car garage offers more than enough room for vehicles, bikes, tools, and storage. Its side entry keeps the front of the house looking tidy.

Inside, there’s a stairwell leading to the bonus area, plus direct access to the main home.

If you’ve ever felt short on garage space, you’ll appreciate how roomy this is.

Outdoor Kitchen and Screen Porch

Head out back and you’ll find a covered outdoor kitchen with a built-in grill and prep area.

It connects right to a vaulted screen porch, so you can enjoy outdoor cooking without any bugs.

I can picture this as the perfect spot for spring evenings or summer parties. The proximity to the indoor kitchen also makes serving food a breeze.

Covered Rear Area

Past the screen porch, there’s a covered rear area stretching across the back of the house.

This outdoor room works all year round, offering shade in the summer and staying usable when the weather cools down.

It’s in just the right spot to take in views of the yard, and it links back to the master suite for easy access.

The master suite is set in its own wing off the family room, making it a true retreat.

Master Bath

The master bath features his-and-hers sections divided by a central dressing table. There are two walk-in closets, separate vanities, and a soaking tub under an arched window.

The oversized shower gives you room to move comfortably. I think the layout is both practical and a bit luxurious.

Getting ready at the same time is easy, with plenty of personal space for each of you.

Upstairs Hall

Heading upstairs, the staircase brings you to a hall that looks over the foyer. From here, you can see how the open design ties the whole home together while still giving each area its own privacy.

Bedroom 3

On one side, Bedroom 3 includes a walk-in closet and direct access to a full bath that’s shared with the hallway.

The room is large enough for a queen bed and a desk, making it ideal for kids or teens.

Since it’s away from the main living areas, it also works well for guests who want a quiet spot.

Architectural Designs – Plan 36045DK

Bedroom 4

Bedroom 4 sits right across from Bedroom 3, almost identical in layout and size. This room also connects to a bath that’s shared with the hall.

The closets here are deeper than usual, and with big windows facing the front, you get plenty of natural light.

Optional Media Room

Between these bedrooms, there’s an optional media room measuring 16 by 17 feet. It has enough space for a big sectional and a giant TV.

I like that it’s set away from the main gathering areas, so you can enjoy loud movies or games without disturbing anyone downstairs.

If you don’t need a dedicated movie space, this room could easily become a playroom or a home gym.

The Second Level Floor Plan

Next to the kitchen, you’ll find attic storage—perfect for seasonal items or anything you want nearby but out of sight. I think this is one of those small details that really matter, since most homes never seem to have enough storage.

Exterior View

Optional Bonus Room

Above the garage, an optional bonus room stretches nearly twenty feet. With its own bath and a closet, this could be an extra guest suite, a home office, or a teen hangout.

The separate stairwell means it stays quiet, which is a huge benefit if you need a peaceful spot to work or want to give older kids a private retreat.

Lower Level Stairs

Heading down to the lower level, the staircase leads you into a wide-open recreation area that really makes the home feel even bigger.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 36045DK

Recreation Area

The recreation area is a generous sixteen by thirty-four feet, so you have plenty of space for a pool table, game table, or even a full workout setup. The bar and sink add a fun touch, whether you’re hosting a party or just relaxing at the end of the day.

Gathering Room

Past the recreation space, the gathering room offers a more intimate setting. It’s a great spot for a second family lounge, playroom, or hobby area.

Since it connects directly to the outdoors, this lower level never feels closed off or dark.

There’s lots of natural light and easy flow.

The Third Level Floor Plan

Theater Room

A theater room anchors one end of the lower level, offering space for stadium seating and a huge screen.

With twenty-two feet of length, you can really go all out for movie night. There are also storage closets for keeping equipment and snacks organized.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 36045DK

Bedrooms 5 and 6

Two more bedrooms complete the lower level, each with its own closet and a shared full bath.

Bedroom 5 is a bit larger, while Bedroom 6 is more compact. These rooms can serve as guest spaces, a home gym, or office areas if you don’t need six bedrooms at once.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 36045DK

Lower Level Storage

Extra storage rooms are tucked behind the recreation area and near the theater, so you’ll have room for everything from holiday decorations to sports equipment.

This home gives you flexibility on every level: spaces to gather, private spots to retreat, and plenty of room to grow.

Picture yourself hosting friends in the outdoor kitchen, catching a movie in the theater, or enjoying coffee in the breakfast nook.

No matter what your day looks like, there’s always a space for it here.
