What makes Craftsman house plans<\/a> different from a log house plans, Victorian house plans, Colonial house plans, etc?\u00a0 The answer is in the word \u201ccraftsmanship\u201d.\u00a0 Craftsman house plans have an exceptional level of craftsmanship in every single detail.<\/p>\n

That is not to say other types of house plans<\/a> do not pay attention to details.\u00a0 Nothing could be further than the truth!\u00a0 With Victorian house plans, for example, a great deal of work is put into small touches that hearken back to the rich and opulent Victorian era.\u00a0 With ranch house plans, care and effort is put into creating that down-on-the-farm feeling.\u00a0 But with Craftsman house plans, you can count on a strong, comfortable design in which every detail is lovingly handled by a master tradesman.\u00a0 Heart, soul, sweat, and tears of joy go into every piece of wood, every nail, and every tiny little detail. Craftsman plans are a labour of pure love.<\/p>\n

You can see the family orientated feeling of Craftsman house plans.\u00a0 Although they can range in size from one bedroom dwellings to spacious mansions, they tend to share some common elements.\u00a0 Wood shingle siding gives a cosy yet polished feel.\u00a0 Wide window and door casings add an unexpected aesthetic visual. Large front porches with big tapered columns make the perfect gathering place for family and friends and the dominant low-pitched rooflines keep the family inside secure and protected.\u00a0 All aspects point to a dwelling that every member of the family longs to come home to.<\/p>\n

While the finishes and wood details may hint at the grander of yesteryear, Craftsman house plans are perfect for today\u2019s modern family.\u00a0 Most have a large, spacious kitchen in the heart of the home for parents and children to gather for a meal or to do homework together in style and comfort.\u00a0 A cosy breakfast nook is the perfect place to snuggle your sweetheart over a cup of coffee or tea before the kids wake up. \u00a0The nook is also the perfect spot for a nice chat about your day after the kids have gone to bed.\u00a0 (Not to mention this is a very handy place for a healthy family breakfast! So many uses!)\u00a0 Many Craftsman house plans have built in cabinetry and bookshelves, giving you an easy way to keep treasures, books, antiques, and more organized while on display.<\/p>\n

Original Craftsman homes were built using local materials, which made each one unique despite their common elements.
