From award-winning designer Michael E. Nelson comes a stunning addition to our European House Collection. Stone Gables puts a unique take on the European style home through Craftsman-inspired rustic elements. With a strong focus on natural materials, this 3,054 sq.ft. floor plan offers 3 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, and 1 half bath for spacious living comfort. A beautiful mix of stone, brick, and wood timbers makes this house plan as comfortable in the suburbs as it would be on a lakeside shore!

Open Entry, Open Plan

Wood columns encircle the double-paned arch-top French doors for a covered private entry, welcoming you into the Stone Gables Foyer. Great 11’ ceilings welcome you with a look into the Great Room straight ahead and the Dining Room to your immediate left. The dining room creates privacy lines with broad doorways without sacrificing the joy of an open floor plan. Moving into the great room, this space is the central heart of the Stone Gables home plan and showcases a cozy fireplace for firelight evenings on cool nights. Large 8x8 timber beams line the 12’ ceilings to draw in the exterior design focus on natural elements. Two sets of double doors lead onto the grilling porch.

The open floor plan flows into the Kitchen to the left end of the great room. A raised island bar offers seating for four while providing additional counter space for meal prep! The Stone Gables kitchen design provides a separate placement for your refrigerator and freezer without sacrificing precious cabinet space. An extended pantry at the far end of the kitchen keeps your dry and canned goods close at hand. At the rear of the kitchen, a cozy Breakfast Nook offers a beautiful morning view through grand windows for the family to enjoy.

Starting at the foyer again, a study is entered to the right. Barn doors lead into this expansive space, perfect for a computer work room or passion-project space. The Study features a second fireplace for quiet contemplation, or to inspire your next masterpiece!

Master Suite Living

Before entering the Great Room proper, you will find the entrance to the Master Suite wing, where a foyer-style space houses a quaint coat closet ideal for frequently used work coats and suit jackets. Continuing through the entry to the left, you will find two spacious walk-in closets flanking the hallway. Straight ahead at the rear of the home, the Master Bedroom features a 10-foot boxed ceiling. This added touch of elegance creates a beautiful appearance of grand ceilings for those uninterested in elaborate displays.

Moving to the front of Stone Gables, you will reach the Master Bath. This decadent bathroom showcases dual sinks in an L-shaped vanity. The roomy counterspace offers a little extra elbow room when performing morning and nightly rituals. A sizable shower is nestled next to the space for a free-standing bathtub, while a private toilet room allows for additional privacy.

Split Bedroom Design

The split bedroom design provides space and privacy for all household members. After passing through the foyer, a wide hallway to the left leads past the Great Room and Kitchen to bedrooms 2 and 3. Straight ahead you will find the spacious bedroom 2, boasting side-facing windows for light and fresh air. An en-suite full bath opens into the moderate walk-in closet.

Past bedroom 2 is entry to bedroom 3, which grants immediate access to the slightly larger walk-in closet to the right. Bedroom 3 offers rear-facing windows alongside the private bathroom, which features a private toilet/shower room. These features make bedroom 3 perfect for similarly aged siblings to share!

Down this same hall you will also find a half bath and laundry room, which has plenty of counterspace for your folding needs, as well as a sink. Beside the half bath is a walk-in pantry that can easily serve as an extra pantry, or just an extra storage space for winter clothes or board games!

Garage Entry

With a 3 bay side entry, the Stone Gables garage is roomy enough for all your daily rides or project cars with still space for lawn mowers and yard equipment! From here, entering the home takes you to a small hallway with stairs to the upper level to your left, and a bench with hanging space just ahead offers a quiet place to remove dirty shoes and clothes.

Upstairs Bonus Room

Taking the stairs, you will find a grand and spacious Bonus Room waiting to fill your home needs. The bonus room gathers ample amounts of natural lighting from the side-facing windows and includes a modest closet space for storage. Designated space is reserved for an optional full bath.
