A home like this doesn’t simply blend into the forest. The gabled rooflines and timber-framed porch offer instant character, giving you a sense of both warmth and strength from the first glance.

With 2,960 square feet of living space, this mountain-modern craftsman delivers multi-level living with each floor planned for both lively gatherings and quiet hideaways.

Thanks to wide sightlines and clever room placement, I’ll walk you through this home, layer by layer, to see how each space connects.

Specifications:

  • 2,960 Heated S.F.
  • 2-5 Beds
  • 2.5-5.5 Baths
  • 1 Stories
  • 3 Cars

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.

Foyer

Step through the front door and you’re immediately greeted by light and space. The foyer feels open because of the high ceiling and the wide view leading into the rest of the main level.

Foyer/Entry

A sculptural orb chandelier catches your eye above, while a hardwood floor underfoot adds sturdy comfort.

There’s enough room to greet guests without feeling crowded, and it naturally invites you to pause for coats, keys, or just to take in the surroundings.

A dedicated coat closet on one side keeps things tidy and organized.

Porch

Just beyond the foyer, you’ll find the covered front porch. Featuring classic craftsman columns and timber details, this spot is designed for quiet mornings or friendly waves to neighbors.

The porch wraps slightly, offering shelter from the weather and a connection to the outdoors that fits the home’s rustic style.

Great Room

Moving forward from the foyer, you step into the great room. With its vaulted ceiling and a wide stretch of windows, this area feels open and full of natural light.

Great Room/Living Room

The fireplace set in sleek gray tile rises from floor to ceiling and acts as the centerpiece.

Built-ins on each side offer space for books, games, or favorite keepsakes. The great room opens up to the deck, making it simple to move from indoor relaxing to outdoor gatherings.

Kitchen

Right beside the great room, the kitchen is both open and efficient. You’ll notice the long island, great for casual breakfasts or prepping a big meal, with seating for several.

Kitchen

Organization is clear here, with a walk-in pantry close to the cooking area and lots of counter space along both walls.

Kitchen

The mix of white and natural wood cabinetry adds a modern touch, while stainless appliances and marble countertops give a crisp finish.

This is a kitchen where you can cook, entertain, and still chat with friends or family.

Dining

Next to the kitchen, the dining area takes full advantage of the home’s sightlines and natural light.

There’s space for a large table, and sliding doors lead you straight onto the vaulted deck.

Hosting a holiday meal or sharing a weeknight dinner feels comfortable and easy. I think this setup is perfect for anyone who enjoys blending indoor and outdoor living.

Vaulted Deck and Deck

Step outside from the dining area or great room onto the vaulted deck. With overhead protection and open sides, this area feels like a natural extension of the living room.

Patio/Outdoor
Architectural Designs – Plan 849148PGE

Black metal railings and wood posts frame the view. Imagine sipping coffee here at sunrise or catching an evening breeze.

The deck continues around the house, giving you room for both dining and lounging furniture.

Owner’s Suite

Back inside, in a private corner of the main level, you’ll find the owner’s suite.

The first thing you notice is the light—wide glass doors open directly to the deck, bringing the outdoors in.

There’s generous space for a king bed and a separate sitting area, creating a true retreat.

Natural tones and a soft accent wall offer a calming atmosphere. I love that this suite is positioned for maximum privacy while keeping you close to the main living spaces.

Owner’s Bath

The ensuite bath is both luxurious and practical. A deep soaking tub sits under a tall window, ideal for unwinding at the end of the day.

Master Bathroom

Double vanities provide plenty of storage, and the glass-enclosed shower gives a spa-like feel. I noticed the designer included both a private water closet and open shelving for extra towels and personal touches.

Walk-In Closet (Owner’s Suite)

The walk-in closet is surprisingly spacious, with built-in shelves and hanging racks. Keeping everything neat and accessible is easy, which definitely makes daily routines smoother.

Laundry

Right next door, the laundry room is compact but efficient. Full-size machines fit under a countertop for folding, and there’s storage above for detergent, baskets, and cleaning supplies.

A window brings in natural light, so even chores feel a bit more pleasant.

Mudroom

Situated between the garage and the main floor, the mudroom acts as a buffer. Cubbies line one wall, giving everyone a spot for shoes, coats, and backpacks.

The tiled floor handles muddy boots with ease. This setup works well to keep clutter out of the main living areas.

Powder Room

Near the mudroom, a powder room adds convenience for family and guests. It’s easy to find and uses every inch efficiently with a pedestal sink and a large mirror.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 849148PGE

Garage

Step through the mudroom and you’re in the garage. This space does more than just park cars.

Garage
Architectural Designs – Plan 849148PGE

With room for three vehicles, there’s still extra space for a workbench or to store bikes, skis, or holiday decorations.

Epoxy flooring makes clean-up simple, and windows along the doors keep the area bright.

Master 2

On the opposite side of the home, there’s a second full suite called Master 2.

It’s ideal for parents, in-laws, or long-term guests. The bedroom is roomy and bright, with direct deck access and its own walk-in closet.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 849148PGE

Bath 2

Bath 2 serves Master 2 and features double sinks, a glass shower, and plenty of built-in storage. The finishes match the home’s calm, modern style, and a linen closet right outside helps with organization.

Off the kitchen, the walk-in pantry offers deep shelves for bulk groceries and appliances. It’s easy to keep everything organized and out of sight.

Linen Closets

You’ll find a couple of linen closets throughout the main level. These make it simple to grab a fresh towel or bed sheet without walking across the house.

Stairs to Lower and Upper Levels

From the foyer, the staircase leads both up and down, letting you move easily between all three levels. The metal railing and open design keep this area feeling spacious.

Now, let’s head upstairs to see what’s next.

Bonus Room

At the top of the stairs, the bonus room is wide open—perfect for a media area, playroom, home gym, or even a quiet office space. I think this flexibility is a real plus if your needs change over time or you just like having options.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 849148PGE

Bath (Upper Level)

A full bathroom sits right off the bonus room. With a shower, vanity, and sleek tile, it’s ready for guests, kids, or anyone using the upstairs for sleepovers or longer stays.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 849148PGE

Covered Deck (Upper Level)

Double doors from the bonus room lead out to a covered deck. It’s a great place for fresh air, games, or relaxing with a book, no matter the weather.

The elevated view gives you a dramatic look out over the yard and trees.

Let’s head back down to the lower level, where even more space awaits.

Family Room

Downstairs, the family room stretches along the back of the house. This room is designed for living, with space for movie nights, game tables, or big parties.

A gas fireplace keeps things cozy on chilly evenings, and built-in cabinetry offers storage for games, books, or your favorite bar setup.

French doors open to the patio and backyard, connecting you to nature just as much as the main floor does.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 849148PGE

Kitchen (Lower Level)

The lower-level kitchen sits next to the family room, featuring full-size appliances, generous counter space, and a bar area for snacks or drinks. This makes the space ideal for multi-generational living, teens coming in from the yard, or stocking up for large gatherings.

Exterior View

The Second Level Floor Plan

This plan continues below. Jump to the Third Level Floor Plan ↓

Step outside from the family room to the patio. With space for seating, dining, or even a fire pit, this area becomes another outdoor living zone, sheltered from above but open to the view.

Bedroom 3 with Sitting Area

Bedroom 3 on the lower level feels almost like its own apartment. There’s a roomy sleeping area plus a separate sitting nook that could work as a private lounge or study.

Wide windows and outdoor access make it bright and comfortable.

Exterior View

Bath (Bedroom 3)

A private bath connects to Bedroom 3, complete with a walk-in closet. No sharing required, so this suite works well for teenagers, long-term guests, or even a live-in relative.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 849148PGE

Bedroom 4

Bedroom 4 is set at the back of the lower level. There’s room for a queen bed, window views, and easy access to a full bathroom right next door.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 849148PGE

Bedroom 5

Bedroom 5 sits beside Bedroom 4, also with backyard views and its own closet. The nearby bathrooms make busy mornings much easier.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 849148PGE

Bath (Lower Level Bedrooms)

Two bathrooms on this floor serve Bedrooms 4 and 5. Each has a shower, vanity, and quality finishes.

Even on the busiest mornings, there’s always a free shower.

Architectural Designs – Plan 849148PGE

The Third Level Floor Plan

Storage

The lower level includes two large storage areas—one near the stairs and another by the bedrooms. There’s plenty of room for seasonal decor, sports gear, or anything you want to keep handy but out of sight.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 849148PGE

Mechanical/Utility

A dedicated mechanical room holds utilities out of the way. It sits beside the stairs, making it accessible but never in the way of daily living.

Exterior View
Architectural Designs – Plan 849148PGE

Powder Room (Lower Level)

A half-bath downstairs lets guests or anyone hanging out on this floor freshen up without needing to go upstairs.

Across all three levels, this house offers flexible spaces that adapt to your lifestyle. You’ll find it easy to host a crowd, work from home, or carve out quiet corners.

The more time you spend here, the more ways you’ll find to make this home truly your own.
