Just a word of caution regarding Anderson Windows. We wanted the windows and doors pictured in the rustic Amicalola home that's on the Garrell site. Researched it and found out they are from Anderson. Pricey ,but thought They would be worth the cost. Our local distributor is the HomeDepot. We took our plans to them, I also gave them pictures of the front door and dining room units. It took them three weeks to just get the order placed with Anderson. Another four weeks for production and delivery . Now we have pcs that are incorrect. The sales person that handled our order got a promotion during this time, but when he found out about the problems, he quit his job. The next guy talks the talk " I'm going to get this done" etc. but we haven't heard from him in a week. Finally, I called Anderson customer service and asked if they could help us. I was basically told ' No, sorry' . We will get it worked out somehow. It's just very frustrating. I would not recommend Anderson Windows to anyone, based on the lack of concern or willingness to help in this situation.

Here it is: Abounding in the simple roof lines stock plans are noted for. [Craftsman[(https://www.houzz.com/magazine/roots-of-style-see-what-defines-a-craftsman-home-stsetivw-vs~14999574) Crashes into Victorian Cottage. (But I'm no architect.)

Jas, if you don't find anyone who built this house, I can turn this plan into a 3D layout and you can see how everything looks as it was already built. If you interested please leave me your email in my message box here on Houzz and I will contact you. Good luck

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