Its family-focused spaces and eye for detail made this addition to our exclusive <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thehousedesigners.com\/americas-choice-house-plans\/\" target=\"_blank\">America&#8217;s Choice House Plans<\/a> a no-brainer.

Whether it&#8217;s a customization request or a question about finding your dream home, we are ready for it all! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Versatile and Stunning Exterior<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thehousedesigners.com\/images\/plans\/AMD\/bulk\/9081\/3086_Front_Evening.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\"\/><figcaption>Exterior of THD-9081 in the Evening Time<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The first thing anyone notices about a house plan is its curb appeal. While everybody has different tastes, there&#8217;s no denying a quality home when you see it. For our <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thehousedesigners.com\/craftsman-house-plans.asp\" target=\"_blank\">Craftsman plans<\/a> like this one, we are always sure to add the classic roof shapes and welcoming columned porches the style is known for. Then we add smaller decorative elements to dress up each one to perfection. It&#8217;s the little things that make all the difference!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hollybush is no exception. Its wide gabled roofline and subtle touches make for a beautiful view from the street. The characteristic front porch with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thermatru.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Therma-Tru\u00ae<\/a> wood-look entry door beckons you and guests inside, inviting them to stay a while and enjoy all that this home has to offer! And don&#8217;t overlook the 2-car garage; especially for urban builds, parking comes at a premium so having a garage is a valuable asset! We&#8217;ve chosen a super stylish yet subtle design from <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thehousedesigners.com\/linkto.asp?id=12901&amp;type=o\" target=\"_blank\">Clopay garage doors<\/a> to complement this fa\u00e7ade. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moving around to the back of the home, you&#8217;ll find not one but two covered porches! There&#8217;s one off the living room for entertaining guests and another from the master suite for some personal relaxation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thehousedesigners.com\/images\/plans\/AMD\/bulk\/9081\/3086_Rear.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"850\"\/><figcaption>Rear Exterior Complete with Two Covered Porches<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Family-Friendly Floor Plan <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond its amazing exterior awaits an affordable yet impressive interior. Featuring 1,671 square feet of living space, the 3-bed and 2-bath layout is perfect for any family. And with its large open living space, there is plenty of room to stretch out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thehousedesigners.com\/images\/plans\/AMD\/bulk\/9081\/1186F-THD_floor-plan.jpg\" alt=\"1st Floor\" width=\"850\"\/><figcaption>The Hollybush Floor Plan<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The bright and spacious great room is a highlight of the home. Perfect for entertaining crowds big and small, the totally open living room, dining area, and gourmet kitchen are all visually joined as one.
