Craftsman-style homes are known for their artisanal quality, both inside and out.

The exterior typically features low-pitched roofs, wide eaves, and exposed rafters, giving these homes their iconic handcrafted look. Front porches, with thick, tapered columns and stone or brick bases, create a welcoming, grounded appearance that blends seamlessly into the landscape.

Inside, these homes focus on the beauty of natural materials, with hand-finished wood and stonework adding warmth and character. You’ll often find built-in furniture, like bookcases, window seats, and cabinetry, which create a timeless feel while providing practical functionality. The open floor plans feature a seamless flow between rooms, making the space feel both warm and expansive.

Every detail, from the intricate woodwork to the stone fireplaces and built-in furniture, reflects the craftsmanship that defines this style, creating a home that’s as functional as it is beautiful.
