Modern Traditional / New American Home Plan with Craftsman Character
This thoughtfully designed Modern Traditional / New American home plan blends timeless suburban architecture with subtle Traditional Craftsman detailing for a look that feels both familiar and elevated. With approximately 2,600 heated square feet, this two-story design offers a comfortable 4-bedroom, 3-bath layout ideal for families who want classic curb appeal paired with modern livability.
The exterior composition is a defining feature of the design, combining horizontal lap siding with stone accents at the porch and base. This material mix creates depth, texture, and a sense of permanence while remaining approachable and neighborhood-friendly. Clean rooflines, balanced window placement, and a welcoming covered front porch reinforce the home’s enduring appeal.
Classic Curb Appeal with Modern Proportions
The front elevation reflects the hallmarks of New American architecture—symmetry, proportion, and simplicity—enhanced by Craftsman-inspired details. Stone porch columns ground the façade visually, while the siding keeps the overall appearance light and refined. The attached garage integrates seamlessly into the structure, maintaining architectural balance without overwhelming the front of the home.
- Horizontal siding for a clean, timeless exterior
- Stone porch columns and base accents for visual weight
- Covered front porch that enhances everyday usability
- Architectural rooflines that complement suburban neighborhoods
Main-Level Living Designed for Everyday Comfort
Inside, the main level delivers an open yet structured layout that supports both daily routines and entertaining. Natural light flows through the living areas, creating an inviting atmosphere from the moment you step inside.
- Spacious great room ideal for relaxing or hosting guests
- Open kitchen with generous counter space and storage
- Dining area positioned for easy access to both kitchen and living spaces
- Flex room or office near the front of the home
- Convenient mudroom entry from the garage
This level balances openness with defined zones, allowing the home to feel expansive without sacrificing comfort or functionality.
Second Floor: Private and Practical
The upper level is dedicated to rest and privacy. Each bedroom is designed with comfortable proportions, while shared spaces remain efficient and easy to navigate.
- Primary suite with space for a king-sized bed and sitting area
- Primary bath designed for comfort and daily efficiency
- Three additional bedrooms suitable for family, guests, or home offices
- Secondary full baths serving the remaining bedrooms
- Optional upstairs laundry for modern convenience
The bedroom layout supports a wide range of lifestyles, from growing families to multi-generational living.
Craftsman Influence Within a New American Framework
While firmly rooted in the Modern Traditional / New American category, the plan incorporates Craftsman elements that add warmth and character. These details are subtle rather than ornate, ensuring the home feels current rather than nostalgic.
- Stone detailing inspired by Craftsman porch designs
- Substantial column proportions
- Balanced window groupings
- Earth-toned exterior materials
This blend results in a home that feels established and welcoming without appearing dated.

- Covered porch for year-round usability
- Rear yard ready for patio or outdoor living expansion
