The Oakdale plan is a single-level, ranch home featuring 3 bedrooms/2 baths in an authentic craftsman style. The open layout is perfect for casual living and entertaining with the integration of kitchen with large island, dining and living areas.
From the entry, a focal point can be a corner fireplace. A simple floating mantel with dentil molding carries the craftsman style. For extra pazazz add stone below the mantel. The interior trim and doors are square – for example, the interior doors and kitchen cabinets feature square panels. Cabinet and door hardware, as well as plumbing fixtures and lighting, all have a touch of simple, square design.
The first room off the foyer is ideal for home office/study or secondary bedroom. For additional flexibility, the bonus room above can be finished to provide additional living space for media room, home office or game room–the possibilities are endless.
The homes’ exterior has low-maintenance siding – a combination of vinyl and fiber cement siding and trim keeps costs down while maintenance is minimal. Convenient entry can be from the front and back covered porches or directly from the two-car garage. Gable brackets continue the craftsman design on the front elevation. A screened porch was added to the plan for outdoor enjoyment and entertaining.
