Get ready to catch some serious waves of style with this Cottage, Craftsman, and Tuscan inspired house plan—Plan 65869. Boasting a laidback 2,847 square feet of living space, this single-story beauty brings you 3 spacious bedrooms, 3 full baths, and a rad 3 car garage for all your rides and gear. Whether you're looking for a relaxing family retreat or an entertainer's paradise, this house plan has the perfect flow for chill vibes and good times.
From the curb, the exterior welcomes you with classic Craftsman touches, elegant Tuscan vibes, and a cozy cottage feel. Wide porches totaling 615 square feet practically invite you outside to soak up the sun or unwind with a cold drink after a long day. The roofline is bold and eye-catching, topped off by stick-framed construction and a 12:12 pitch that gives the home a confident and timeless look.
Step inside and let the open main living area sweep you off your feet. With ceilings stretching up to 12 feet, vaulted and tray details throughout, and a killer fireplace anchoring the great room, this space is made for kicking back or hosting your crew. The kitchen delivers with a center island (3'4” x 4'), perfect for prepping snacks or gathering around for late-night laughs. A formal dining room adds a touch of class when you're feeling fancy, while the seamless layout keeps everything connected.
The primary suite is a total sanctuary with its own wing, offering privacy and comfort. Enjoy a spa-worthy master bath featuring a roomy 3'8” x 5' shower and loads of closet space. The other bedrooms are tucked away for peace and quiet, making them awesome for kids, guests, or even a home office.
Bonus alert: there's a massive 934 sq ft bonus area upstairs—ideal for a game room, media lounge, or whatever your imagination dreams up. Plus, you've got a mudroom, smart laundry setup, and tons of storage (especially if you go with no basement, where the staircase nook becomes a secret stash spot).
Outdoor living is next level with generous porches just waiting for you to grill, chill, or catch the sunset. Foundation options? You've got ‘em: basement, crawlspace, slab, or walkout basement—whatever suits your lifestyle best.
This plan is perfect for families who want room to spread out, entertainers looking to impress, or anyone who just loves a laidback, high-style home. Dive into comfortable living with this Cottage Craftsman Tuscan house plan and let every day feel like a getaway.

Home-Cost.com’s INSTANT™ Cost-To-Build Report also provides you these added features and capabilities:
A: 2847 is the first floor heated area. Ceilings: 12’ – family, kitchen, dining, breakfast, foyer, lanai 10’ - secondary bedrooms, desk area, bath 2, study, master bath/wic 9’ - exercise, utility
A: 9’-0” wide x 7’ tall.
A: All dimensions are from the inside of the wall.
A: 12’ with steps up in the family to 13’
A: We call for cedar shakes. I’d recommend a Hardi-Board or Royal Building Products shake though in hind sight. Much lower maintenance.
A: Yes. Our measurement is to the outermost edges of the foundation.
A: We have a walk-out basement which is currently just wide open space and structural columns.
A: No, it is another 800 SF.
A: Yes, you could get 4 brs and 2 baths from that plan with no changes to the front elevation.
A: It would just be attic then.
A: Have attached a sketch of a similar plan with the walk-out that has the same Lanai and BBQ. It just becomes a raised deck.
View Attached FileA: Yes. Same price, just specify walk-out basement when ordering.
A: Originally for Texas.
A: We use them as structural but they could be removed by using larger ceiling beams.
A: 88’-8” wide x 84’-10” deep
A: Of course. Your builder can handle a change like that in the field pretty easily.
A: Most cold weather foundations have to be deep enough for the frost line to make doing a basement logical.
A: There's is actually about 800 sf designed upstairs, but it could be expanded. Ceilings are easy to modify in the field or on paper.
A: We do have a crawlspace foundation which is pier and beam framing. The ceiling treatments are all noted on the plan.
A: No, but they are similar to Plan 65862.
A: Yes, plenty of room.
A: There is already 900 (+/-) SF of Bonus area over the garage and master bath area, but yes, there is plenty of additional attic area to create additional walk-in space.
A: We do not include mechanical as it is impossible to figure prior to knowing the orientation of the home. We do include electrical (schematic) showing light fixtures, outlet, switches and their locations, how they are connected. The only thing we do not provide is circuiting and wire sizes. We adhere to the IRC, for compliance with Canadian codes I would have to defer to a local authority on that. David
A: Exterior materials are stone and a cedar shake material that could be a hardi-board product that is very low maintenance. The trusses in the gable could also be hardi-board, but that might take some thought as to how to achieve it. I would still recommend a high quality stain in the trusses.
A: The exterior is a combination of stone and cedar shakes(or a hardi-board substitute). I recommend the hardi-products line for any and all exposed wood materials - fascia, soffits, trim and siding.
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.
