Modern Craftsman House Plan with Board and Batten Exterior & Stone Accents
A thoughtfully designed Modern Craftsman home offering 2,850 heated square feet, 4 bedrooms, and 4.5 baths with timeless curb appeal and modern livability.
This Modern Craftsman house plan blends classic Craftsman character with clean, updated detailing for today’s lifestyles. Steep front-facing gables, vertical board and batten siding, and a substantial stone base create a strong architectural presence that feels both warm and refined. Designed to sit beautifully on wooded or sloped lots, this home is equally suited for suburban neighborhoods or scenic rural settings.
Architectural Style & Exterior Design
The exterior reflects a refined interpretation of Modern Craftsman and Mountain Craftsman architecture. Vertical board and batten siding adds height and visual interest, while horizontal lap siding provides balance and contrast. A natural stone veneer wraps the lower portion of the home, grounding the structure and reinforcing its Craftsman roots.
- Board and batten siding with complementary lap siding accents
- Natural stone veneer base for durability and visual depth
- Standing-seam metal porch awnings for a subtle modern touch
- Exposed wood porch columns and beams
- Steep gable rooflines with Craftsman-inspired proportions
This exterior composition is rooted in traditional craftsmanship while embracing modern materials and cleaner lines, a balance that defines the evolution of the Craftsman style as documented by ArchDaily.

Inside, the plan opens into a welcoming foyer that leads directly into a spacious great room.
