Today I am sharing a Cottage Craftsman that we looked at on our house hunt.
 |
It sits on over an acre lot in the same neighborhood as the other craftsman with the perfect yard. This house had an automatic gated driveway. |
 |
| This home had another major plus which was hardwood floors thru out. Not one stitch of carpet which is important due to allergies. |
 |
| The dining room was a nice size. It was hard trying to figure out how our furniture would fit though because of all the archways. I would actually have to get rid of a lot of furniture. This home only had three bedrooms. |
 |
| The living room lacked a fireplace. We were trying to figure out how to rip the tv/fireplace cabinet out and replace it with a gas log fireplace. |
 |
| The kitchen was open concept which I loved. The island was at a strange angle though and I had to decide if I could get use to it. I also was not excited about the fact that it was tiered. This home lacks a breakfast nook so the only place to eat would be the dining room or at this island and truthfully there really is not enough room to sit at the island. |
 |
| The master bedroom was right off the living room. It only had one window which was above the bed and then a door to an outside patio area. I am not a fan of doors to the outside in bedrooms. One of the secondary bedrooms also had a door to the outside which really restricted how you could use the space since the bedrooms were not all that big. |
 |
| Really great master bath. I LOVE that tub! |
 |
| Cottage charm was added thru out with beadboard. |
 |
| A claw foot tub which I really liked but felt that it may be tough for the boys and the grandparents. |
 |
| This home was all one story except for a bonus room you could access thru the garage. It was a great space but just an odd way to get to it. |
 |
| Another plus is the swimming pool! All these pics are from the MLS listing. Sadly deleted from my phone the ones I took. This home we visited twice contemplating on whether it would work for us or not. In case you missed the other homes on our hunt here they are: Craftsman with the Perfect Yard Yellow Plantation House |
Oh my Pamela such beautiful choices. I think the first one the plantation home is so much more you. They are both gorgeous choices.

All wonderful choices Kris I agree!
DeleteYou are seeing some really beautiful homes. Will be a hard decision. I like something about each one. Glad it's you instead of me. LOL

It is a tough decision Judy! Thanx for visiting and touring the homes with us!:)
DeleteSuch an exciting time! That is a beautiful home!
ReplyDeleteThis one is nice too, but that 4th bedroom is pretty important, maybe if you could add regular access the bonus room could become guest quarters?
