HPG-21003-1: The Baymont Lane

This is a top notch company. We asked for numerous changes to our selected plan and they were all handled accurately and quickly. We always received the revisions by email to approve. I know sometimes one is leery to deal online but believe me this couldn't have been easier. We have almost completed our construction and the builder has had no issues at all. I have already recommended this company to others. Totally satisfied.

My husband and I have three boys that graduated in 2012. All three were going to be going to college and looking to move out in the next few years.

Our home at that time was two story and more home than we wanted for ourselves when the children were gone. I had seen craftsman style homes on t.v. and loved the look of the them. I knew that building one was the only option because that style was not a well known house style in our area.

I had an idea of the floor plan I wanted so when I saw this plan I knew it was the one. The exterior of the picture was not what I had in mind but I knew that I could add my own touch to make it ours.

We decided to change very little with the floor plan it was pretty much what we wanted. We loved the open kitchen/living room. I could see our family enjoying many visits and holidays with such an open area. The master bedroom and bathroom are a great size. We did how ever get a larger master closet when we elected to do without the outdoor storage closet. Doing this allowed us to also have a larger utility area. The additional bedrooms were a nice size and we liked the idea that they were on the opposite of the house with its own bathroom.

The exterior was what I feel to be the major change. We added a lot of extra touches. We stayed with the siding as shown in the picture. We elected to do shaker siding on the dormer above the front porch to add the craftsman appeal. Stone columns were built on the front porch half way up with cedar posts going up to the ceiling. Bead board was placed in the ceilings of all porch and patio areas. Gorgeous cedar trim was placed around the front and side window. An eye catching mantle trim was placed around and over the front door.

We were able to achieve the craftsman style we had hoped for.

Construction began December 2008, and we moved into the house late April 2009. I had always wanted a split bedroom plan, and with our situation it gives the privacy that we so wanted.

My Mother has the "Mother-in-law suite" on one end of the house, and we have the rest. We are definately enjoying living in our new home, and would DEFINITELY recommend House Plan Gallery plans to anyone looking to build their dream home!

My husband and I are starting a family together and started looking to build our dream home. We wanted an open space that was extremely family oriented. I found this home plan on this website and absolutely fell in love with it immediately.

The thing I love most about the plan is the open living area to the kitchen. We love to cook and have a good time so the openness gives us the space we need. The bedroom lay-out is another favorite thing, since the kids bedrooms are on one side and the privacy of the master is on the other.

We have the aspect of being together but we have our privacy, especially when the kids get older and don't want to be with mom and dad as much. We are still currently in the process of building and should be in our new home within the next month. I cannot wait to start our lives in our new home.

Thank you so much for the perfect house plan.

Excellent customer service, fast turnaround, and easy to work with. We have used them several times, always flawless.
