I watch Cozy Woodnest to be amazed by the bizarre ( drug induced ) crap they come up with... and they NEVER disappoint ! No coat closet ...no oven ... a laundry room larger than needed that you can only access through the kitchen by going up and down a flight of stairs ! I hope you don't break an arm or a leg negotiating it. A couple of posts separating the living room and dining room for no apparent reason. A bunch of tiny doors ( attic access ? ) And good luck making it to the bathroom in time if you're in the kitchen !
Nicely done! A good Arts & Crafts house with a plan that might have been used 100 yeas ago, as said below. I find the kitchen/back door/laundry room unnecessarily long and it wastes space. The back door can be even with the rest of the floor; there's no reason the descent to grade needs to be inside. A hallway to the laundry nearer the bedrooms is much better for whomever has to do laundry and that long walk! If you mirror-flip the kitchen to the other wall, you can put a hallway or open space where the fridge was all the way to the back wall. It should terminate in a new position for the back door. The open space (axial to 4 rooms now) allows entry to the laundry room.
Beautiful, very functional adaptation of a plan that was very common here in North America a century ago. The isolation of the kitchen is a feature that is highly sought after by many women (hides the clutter that commonly accumulates in the kitchen, as well as the sights, sounds, and smells associated with food preparation). Having en-suite facilities for each of the upper floor bedrooms is an excellent idea, so that those in the upper floor bedrooms have access without having to negotiate a flight of stairs. One issue: there are "bricked-up" blocked windows at basement level along one side of the house. Is this anticipation of a full, potentially initially unfinished basement (as is extremely common in many areas of North America)? If so, how is the basement accessed, especially from inside the house?
Exterior design looks nice, but the interior design is poorly done. No access to the laundry room or any of the bedrooms or bathroom and stairs unless you go through the dining room, very Cold looking in it's presentation and craftsman style homes also had a fireplace which this one has none. The kitchen is totally inadequate not only for amount of drawers offered but cabinet storage and modern amenities are expected i e. A Dishwasher. Bathrooms are poorly designed. Just needs a whole new interior floor plan and then redo everything else. I guess we don't need a oven so plan your meals accordingly. Just very poorly done.
Very strong step down to the laundry.
