COOL house plan 75137 has earned its reputation as one of our longest-running best sellers for one simple reason—it just works. Combining timeless Craftsman architecture, an incredibly functional one-story layout, and beautiful indoor-outdoor living spaces, this stellar home offers 1,879 square feet, 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a private study, and an oversized 2-car garage designed for real life.
Authentic Craftsman styling gives this home unforgettable curb appeal. Decorative wood corbels, cedar shingle accents, tapered brick columns, vertical siding, and carriage-style garage doors create the kind of classic architecture that never goes out of fashion.
One of the coolest features is the incredible wraparound front porch. Large enough for porch swings, rocking chairs, or Adirondack seating, it's the perfect place to enjoy slow mornings, relaxing evenings, or gatherings with family and friends. Around back, the spacious covered lanai extends the living area outdoors, making backyard entertaining easy throughout the year.
Inside, it's easy to see why homeowners continue choosing this floor plan year after year. A bright foyer welcomes guests while a flexible study sits just off the entry. French doors opening to the side porch and abundant windows fill the room with natural light, making it an outstanding home office, library, hobby room, or playroom.
The open family room is the heart of the home, featuring an impressive 11-foot ceiling and optional vaulted ceiling upgrades for even greater architectural drama. Two sets of French doors lead directly to the rear lanai, allowing sunlight to pour inside while creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
The island kitchen is designed for families who love spending time together. Generous cabinetry, abundant countertop space, and a large center island make cooking enjoyable, while the adjoining breakfast nook keeps everyone connected whether preparing meals or entertaining guests.
The private owner's suite offers a relaxing retreat with two generous walk-in closets and a luxurious spa-style bathroom that feels like a private getaway at the end of every day.
Across the home, bedrooms two and three each include their own walk-in closet and share a full bathroom, providing comfortable accommodations for family members or overnight guests while maintaining privacy throughout the layout.
The mudroom and laundry room create an efficient transition from the garage into the home, helping busy families stay organized. If you choose a slab or crawlspace foundation, the basement stair location can easily become additional storage space or an optional powder room, giving this already flexible floor plan even more versatility.
The oversized garage features 9-foot ceilings and generous dimensions, providing plenty of room for vehicles, storage, tools, and weekend projects. Multiple foundation options—including basement, crawlspace, and slab—allow this proven design to adapt beautifully to many different homesites.
Whether you're building your forever home, upgrading for a growing family, or simply choosing one of the most trusted floor plans we've ever offered, house plan 75137 delivers timeless beauty, exceptional livability, and unmistakable COOL Craftsman style.

Home-Cost.com’s INSTANT™ Cost-To-Build Report also provides you these added features and capabilities:
A: Left – 5’-0” x 8’-8” Right – 3’-4” x 8’-8”
A: Hello, We do not have a design for the basement other than the structural portion which is attached.
A: Bonus is 313 SF. There is room for a powder room under the stairs, but it will be tight ceiling ht.
A: Bedroom dimensions do not include the closets or baths. The total area is heated space and does not include garage or porches.
A: The attic is useable. It would need a staircase added to that area. We have a bonus option over the garage ready to go though. The windows in the attic do not meet egress requirements, they would need to be larger.
A: 58 SF.
A: There is a utility room for w/d and HVAC would be in attic.
A: Yes, via pull down stairs from the hall between the secondary bedrooms.
A: Minimum would be about 90’ wide x 100’ deep.
A: Yes- walkout is available. Clg is 8’ Basement mirrors the main level.
A: We don’t show them that way, but since there is no second floor, you could vault any ceilings you wanted.
A: It could, there is plenty of room. The challenge is finding a stair location that will work to access it.
A: 5’-0” x 4’-10” each
A: Check with Clopay Garage Doors and Amaar Garage Doors. They have the hardware.
A: Our plans were created using AutoCAD LT . Lines, arcs, etc.
A: 3094 SF
A: Total covered area = 3094 SF.
A: 9’-0” wide
A: All ceilings are 10’ with the exception of family room which is 11’ flat(could be vaulted though) and the utility and garage which are 9’.
A: You can.
A: The inside of wall dimension from the back of the stair to the front of the utility is 18’-9 ½”.
A: This is not a difficult plan to build for most. 3rd car version is $195. There is a lot of attic space accessible via pull down stair at the secondary bedroom hallway.
A: That depends on where your air handler is. If its in the attic, the RA would be in the ceiling ideally. If its in the basement it can be a floor register. Chase space can be carved out of any of the interior walls surrounding the family room if you prefer to do a wall location.
A: Bath 2 is 3’-5” long x 32” tall Powder bath is 3’ long x 32” tall.
A: 11’ -0”
A: The doors are 8’ tall doors with 2’ tall transoms. Ceiling in Family is 11’.
A: I'm sorry, we don't have any photos. Family room is 11’ flat, but could be vaulted and trusses could be added. 9’ clgs in utility and garage. 10’ ceilings for the rest.
A: Its called an awning.
A: 10’ – foyer, study, dining, kitchen, all bedrooms. 9’ – garage, utility, bath 2 11’ – family.
A: From the side of the pantry wall to the big opening dividing the kitchen from the family it is 7’-0”. 3’-9” of counter space and 3’-3” width for the refrigerator.
A: We don’t call out crown molding, but a simple note added to the plan by the customer/builder in each room which you wish to have crown molding would be the way to handle it.
A: Kitchen- Island – 4’x8’ Range wall - 11’ Refrig wall – 7’ Utility- Opposite w/d - 6’-5” W/D uppers – 6’-5” Master Bath- Vanity – 6’-9” Toilet linen – 3’ Bath 2- Linen – 2’ Vanity – 3’-5”
A: Yes, that is just the bedroom and it would be an easy change to wave in the field to add a foot to the back side of the bedroom as it is a gable end.
A: 5’ x 4’-10” each.
A: Shower is 44x52 not including the seat area(about 2’x2’). Tub is 42x72 Vanity is 6’-9” long.
A: Both are 5-0 x 4-9.
A: While we don’t show one, a door could be added to our plan very easily.
A: Wic’s = 5-0 x 8-8 and 3-4 x 8-8 Pantry = 3-8 x 3-8
A: The doors are facing the hallway between the bedroom and bath.
A: That can either become a powder bath, we have an option for that attached to the plans, or it could become storage. The Construction PDF comes with the rights to reproduce plans, the bid/study set does not.
A: The basement is purely for foundation, no plumbing roughs shown. We do have a walk out.
A: That depends on what type of water heater you use. A tankless can go on any outside wall or in the attic. A 40 gallon tank can go in the garage or the attic with a drain pan. A partial concrete basement is definitely possible.
A: We don’t have anything that we can send you that has more info on room sizes other than the artwork on the website. However if you want to send a list of items you would like to know the size of, we can get that specifically for you.
A: 9-0x7-0
A: 1) 4’x2’ 2) A wheelstop 3) Yes, it would be a modification.
A: Island is 4’x8’-3” Kitchen/Nook is 11’x27’
A: It is certainly possible.
A: Via pull down stairs in the hallway off the secondary bedrooms. There is a good deal of attic space, around 800+ SF useable.
A: Yes, lots.
A: It's plenty big enough to accommodate a vertical unit and water heater.
A: The water heater could go where the stair is. I’d put the furnace in the attic for the sake of a central location for your duct runs. The WIC’s are 8’-8” wide each. the one on the left is 5’ deep and the right one is 3’-4” deep (clear).
A: No interior photos yet, sorry. The bonus space is possible, but would take some slight modifications. Mods are possible on the bedroom side as well. Contact FamilyHomePlans for a quote.
A: 8’-0”
A: 8-0 x 6-5
A: The measurements shown on the plan are clear inside dimensions. The square footage however, is figured to the outside face of the stud wall.
A: Custom made from dimensional lumber. Not hard.
A: Eaves are 2’-6” standard and 1’-6” on the rake ends. Yes, could be modified. Metal roof is no problem. Its just a material change. I don’t know what a “lid ceiling” is, would have to be a modification. There is attic storage via pull down stairs in the hall by the bedrooms. Don’t think there is enough head room to do a pull down where the basement stairs are without modifications.
A: We do not specify manufacturers for doors, windows or trim. They need to be selected based on your geographic/climate/thermal needs. We do provide a crawlspace foundation which shows a perimeter block wall foundation with interior piers.
A: It is possible. Ask FamilyHomePlans.com to quote that as a modification.
A: Its possible. The roof would need to be modified over the stair though.
A: 10’ everywhere except family which is 11’, and utility is 9’.
A: The garage floor actually sits slightly lower than the house (4-6” lower). You could modify the floor levels without much trouble.
A: There’s no universal color system to refer to. You would have to match with the paint manufacturer using their color wheels.
A: 4’ x 54’ = +216 SF or 2095 SF total.
A: We show it flat at 11’, but it could easily be vaulted.
A: There is enough attic. Getting a stair in is tricky.
A: about 15’-16’
A: There is a pull down stair in the hallway to the secondary bedrooms as well as in the garage. No photos yet. I would use an off white, don’t have a specific mfr. number though.
A: We do not have anything designed for the lower level. Its wide open though. Walkout is more than feasible.
A: It mirrors the first level. So it’s the same.
A: No guttering is shown on our plans. Although it is easily added ‘post construction’.
A: There is lots of storage via pull down stairs.
A: 6” walls would reduce interior space by 2” where ever there is an exterior wall. The pitch of the roof is 8:12. We can offer you a study set of this plan for $795. it is commonly used for bidding and estimating only.
A: The 3 on the Lanai are 2-3080’s and the one from the 2 in the Study are 2-2680’s.
A: I wish there was an easy answer to this question, but there isn’t. The only way to get the paint color right is to use a color wheel from someone like a Sherwin Williams, and then create samples on site on the actual material to be used. Brick and stone must be acquired from local yards and there is no standard color system available.
A: 8:12
A: 10’ each.
A: No pics yet.
A: There is a mixture of lap siding and shakes.
A: Not yet.
A: I’d call it a Sherwin Williams SW-6451 “Nurture Green”. But you must check the color on site with the materials you intend to put it on. All paints act differently on different materials.
A: 3 single doors. The third bay is 12’ x 22’ – 9’ clg.
A: 44”x52” with a seat that is roughly 30”x30” in addition to that.
A: 4’x4’
A: A third car garage will expand the width if it is front loaded. Roof pitch would not change, but the ridge would be higher.
A: 6’ wide x 9’-8” deep
A: 5x5 each
A: 5x5 each
A: Master Bath – 14-0 x 7-8
Bath 2 – 5-0 x 8-6
WIC(left) – 5-0 x 8-8
WIC(right) – 3-4 x 8-8
Stair area = 8-0 x 8-0 (There is an optional powder bath drawn for this area)
A: left = 5’x8’-8”
right = 3’-4” x 8’-8”
A: attic.
A: Probably, yes.
A: Unfortunately not yet.
A: There could be, with some slight mods to the rear over the stair to the basement.
A: It is detailed as an 11’ flat ceiling, but could easily be modified in the field to be vaulted or stepped, etc.
A: 5’ wide x 8’-6” long
A: Yes you can! Please click the "Modifications" tab above to get more information.
A: The national average for a house is running right at $125.00 per SF. You can get more detailed information by clicking the Cost-To-Build tab above. Sorry, but we cannot give cost estimates for garage, multifamily or project plans.
