COOL Plan Description
Bungalow Craftsman New American House Plan 81248 with 1,912 Sq Ft, 4 Bed, 2.5 Bath, 2 Car Garage
Catch the laidback vibes of this Bungalow Craftsman New American house plan, number 81248, serving up a breezy 1,912 square feet of living space that's just right for kicking back or entertaining your crew. With 4 chill bedrooms, 2 full baths, a handy half bath, and a spacious 2 car garage, this design is all about stylish comfort and easy living.
Stroll up to the front and you're greeted by a classic front porch—perfect for sipping your morning brew or waving to neighbors as the sun comes up. The exterior's got that premium touch with brick or stone veneer, giving off welcoming curb appeal, plus a roofline that brings a cool, modern twist to the craftsman style.
Inside, everything just flows. The open floor plan connects the great room, kitchen, and dining spaces, making it a breeze to hang out, cook, and keep the good times rolling. There's a fireplace right in the heart of the living area, so you're set for cozy nights and chill hangouts. The kitchen isn't just a place to cook—it's a spot to gather, with a walk-in pantry that keeps snacks and gear tucked away but always within reach.
The primary suite is tucked on the first floor for that sweet mix of privacy and convenience. You'll dig the spacious bedroom, a bath that feels like a retreat, and a walk-in closet that's basically a room of its own. Upstairs, three more bedrooms give everyone their own space, whether it's for sleep, study, or just stretching out.
Bonus perks like a rear porch let you enjoy those mellow evenings outside, while built-in storage space and a dedicated laundry area keep the clutter at bay. Choose your foundation—slab, crawlspace, or basement—to fit your lot and lifestyle.
This house plan is made for anyone who wants that relaxed, family-friendly feel with plenty of space to spread out. Whether you're a growing family, an entertainer at heart, or just someone who loves a modern twist on classic style, House Plan 81248 is ready to be your home base for good times and good living.

Exterior Elevations
In addition to the front exterior, your drawing set will include drawings of the rear and sides of your house as well. These drawings give notes on exterior materials and finishes. Particular attention is given to cornice detail, brick and stone accents, or other finish items that make your home unique.
Note: Sections and Elevations depict the default foundation, regardless of optional foundation page choices
Foundation Plan
The foundation page dimensions, concrete walls, footings, pads, posts, beams, bearing walls, and any stepped foundation information along with any retaining wall info (schematic only). A typical wall section for the home is also usually included on this page (if not, it is elsewhere in your plan set, as space allows). If your plan features a poured concrete slab rather than a basement or crawlspace, the foundation page shows footings and details for the slab, and includes plumbing locations.
Floor Plan(s)
Exterior and interior wall framing, and windows/doors are dimensioned. Room sizes are indicated and any beams, posts and structural bearing points are called out. The floorplans include an electrical legend, and electrical fittings, lights and outlets are shown. Floor Plans will also indicate cross–section details (provided on the sections page) and show any special framing details applicable to the design. Cabinet elevations are included for kitchen and bathrooms; some designs feature cabinet elevations for design–related built–ins too.
Building Sections
Building sections show changes in floor, ceiling, or roof height, and the relationship of one level to another. Our section pages also show how the stairs are calculated (if there are some) and depict roof and foundation members. We try and draw sections to show the most useful information — choosing locations where there are elements you or your contractor might need clarification on.
Note: Sections and Elevations depict the default foundation, regardless of optional foundation page choices
Roof Plan
Roof framing or truss directions are shown, slope directions are indicated and structural members are sized and called out if applicable. The gravity loads used to calculate the rafters, beams and posts are indicated , and we also show gutters, downspouts, and any roof venting required for your home.
Notes and Details Page(s)
Your home comes detailed to meet the requirements of the latest adopted version of the ‘International Residential Code’, and our notes and details pages outline all the elements applicable to the design of your home. Compliance with further standards may need to be incorporated into your plan set, depending on the requirements of your building department — these are usually done locally.

Q:Does your CAD file work with Autocad 2015. Do you sell an unlimited build license, and if so, what is the cost.
A:Yes we can save it so that it will work with 2015.
No we don't offer a multi use license for our plans any more.
Q:We have purchased plans before as we build spec homes.
I understand you do not provide the truss plans, but the layout of how the trusses are actually built will say on the plan you provide if they are rafters or ceiling joist all one piece. This is a first that we are not able to see on the website how these trusses are built, prior to purchasing it usually says if they are pre-engineered roof trusses or hand cut rafters. Hand cut rafters are more expensive and the framer will need to be a lot more experience to assemble.
Can you tell me how this is shown on the plans?
A:This plan comes with a truss roof.
