Have you instead considered working with an architect or person of design talent to create exactly what you want and need instead of trying to find a bad plan that you'll need to fit yourself to?

The plan isn't horrible, but there are a few problem areas I want to point out to you

-the dining room is very isolated from the kitchen

-the master suit is in an awkward place. It's behind the kitchen and interrupts the flow.

-jack and jill bathrooms are being torn out because they make such a poor design

The master suite has two entrances: through the kitchen past the refrigerator and broom closet, and through the laundry/mudroom. Convenient, but you deserve better than that.

Hopefully you'll get some response from people that have built it! Good luck :)

Well...from an architectural perspective the plans are not well done and the exteriors look like a tract home.

If none of this matters, then the design might work for you.

On the other hand, it's possible to do much better. Allison Ramsey and the Bungalow Company are two places online which have much higher quality design.

Good luck on your project.

I am now convinced that if a house has walls, windows, and a roof it is Craftsman Style.

Nope, all it needs are those tapered columns. The rest is optional. :)

And a modern farmhouse doesn't need any of those things...

I really strive to be positive and constructive in my comments, but this plan has many problems. The Jack and Jill bathroom is chopped up and it is odd to have the bathroom sinks open to the bedrooms, the dining room is isolated from the kitchen, wouldn't want people to be able to walk through the mudroom into my master bedroom closet, the 2 bedrooms are small for this size of house. Also, I am assuming you live in a warm climate because where I live you wouldn't put a toilet on an outside wall, and would think twice about putting a tub under a window because of condensation on the window in the winter.

So many issues I am wondering what it is you love about the plan.

Wow, I was not expecting all the comments with issues regarding this plan, but I have welcomed them! Some things you all have pointed out have made complete sense and I didn't even notice the other things you all mentioned. Here are some of the reasons we like this floor plan, and some some ideas that we have about changing some things:

- This floor plan has exactly the number of bedrooms and bathrooms we need. We need a master bedroom, one bedroom for each of our two children, one guest room, three full baths, one half bath, a formal dining room, an island with counter space for barstools, a breakfast nook, a walk in pantry, an office, a laundry room, a mud room, and storage space.

- We prefer everything to be on one level and the guest room and storage space be on the second floor.

- We have two children, so a jack and jill bathroom seems to fit so that they don't each have their own bathroom.

- The half bath for when we have people over.

- My husband would prefer his office to be in the back of the house with access to the back yard and in close proximity to the living room.

- We would add pocket doors to the entrance to the jack and jill bath from the two bedrooms.

- The location of the dining room does not necessarily both us.

- I am not a fan of the fireplace being where it currently is and would like to move in order to have french doors on the wall where the fireplace currently sits.

- We live in south Georgia, so I would assume it would be okay for the toilet to be on an outside wall, but I am not 100% sure of that.

- I am okay with how you get to the master bedroom, but I would be open to a different a route as well.

I see that the house checks the boxes.

Patricia asked, what do you love about it? Not does it check your boxes. Does it make your heart sing?

The dining room isolation is fine since it will be more of a passage for the kids, especially the one in the front bedroom, to and from the garage. If you put a dining table in there, consider pushing it up against the window. Or better, turn it into the kids' den/playroom.

Ok I'm going to play devil's advocate.

Some things you all have pointed out have made complete sense and I didn't even notice the other things you all mentioned. Here are some of the reasons we like this floor plan, and some some ideas that we have about changing some things:

The floor plan is just bad. I asked above and will ask again. Have you considered working with a talented architect to design a house that truly works for you and will also make you happy every time you walk into the house?

With this house you will need to fit your needs to the house whereas if you work with a person of design talent, you will wind up with a house that fits itself to your needs.

- This floor plan has exactly the number of bedrooms and bathrooms we need. We need a master bedroom, one bedroom for each of our two children, one guest room, three full baths, one half bath, a formal dining room, an island with counter space for barstools, a breakfast nook, a walk in pantry, an office, a laundry room, a mud room, and storage space.

Are you sure you need a formal dining room, an island with counter space and a breakfast nook? Do you entertain that often that you need three separate eating areas? I'm asking you to think in terms of your actual lifestyle and not your fantasy of what you'll do if you have the "ideal" house. The truth is if you don't entertain frequently for example, the dining room will remain empty most of the time collecting dust. Only you can answer what the reality is.

Additionally if you do entertain, that dining room is way too small as is the breakfast nook.

Also you need one of the bedrooms to be a guest room. Is it possible to make the extra bedroom a combo bedroom/office for the times you do have guests? Of course if you work from home, or family comes to visit for weeks at a time, that idea won't work. My studio is upstairs and I love that it's away from the tumult of the rest of the house.

- We have two children, so a jack and jill bathroom seems to fit so that they don't each have their own bathroom.

A hall bathroom is still a better choice versus a jack and jill bathroom.

- My husband would prefer his office to be in the back of the house with access to the back yard and in close proximity to the living room.

See my comment above.

- We would add pocket doors to the entrance to the jack and jill bath from the two bedrooms.

Pocket doors are fine for rooms that don't get used frequently. They are not a good choice for a room (bathroom) that will be used multiple times a day.

- The location of the dining room does not necessarily both us.

But the fact it's too small should bother you.

- I am not a fan of the fireplace being where it currently is and would like to move in order to have french doors on the wall where the fireplace currently sits.

So where would you put the fireplace?

Have you thought how you'd arrange furniture in that room?

- I am okay with how you get to the master bedroom, but I would be open to a different a route as well.

So you're ok with walking through the kitchen every time you need to go to your bedroom? When I was growing up the only bedroom off the kitchen was for help. In fact since we never had full time help, my mother turned that bedroom into her office.

I was going to show you how the traffic patterns are poor, but it won't allow me to download as a jpg image to do so.

Agreeing with others that this is just a bad floor plan. Poor flow, poor separation of public and private spaces as well as fragmentation of private spaces.

For example, to access Bedroom #3, you walk right by the front door. Bedroom #2 has its entrance from farther back in the living room on the other side of the powder room. That's awkward, but not as awkward as walking through the kitchen to get to the master bedroom (or "Owner's Suite" lol). Or you could access it via mudroom -> closet -> bathroom, but that's just weird. Also, you have bedrooms in all corners of the house (fragmentation of private space).

Also, the dining room is in a weird spot - I've always hated layouts that put the dining room right next to the entrance (and not directly adjacent to the kitchen). It's a flow problem, at least with the way I tend to entertain - receive guests in foyer, which flows into living room with nice seating for drinks and conversation, then when it's time for dinner, the living room flows into the dining room (which is next to the kitchen). This house plan has that backwards - you receive guests in the foyer and hope they don't mistake your kid's bedroom for a coat closet, then you lead them right past the dining room into the living room, and then when it's time for dinner, they either backtrack to the dining room via foyer opening or through that hallway thing from the kitchen. During this time, you also hope that the guests don't mistake your other kid's bedroom for the powder room.

I'd just hire an architect. I've looked at lots of downloadable house plans for fun (I'm a nerd like that), and none of them are ever good.
