Craftsman House Plans

Craftsman House Plans in South Africa

Craftsman house plans are defined by their handcrafted details, natural materials, and welcoming proportions. Originating from the American Arts and Crafts movement, the Craftsman style emphasises quality over ornamentation — think tapered columns on stone piers, wide overhanging eaves with exposed rafters, and multi-pane windows that frame garden views. In the South African context, Craftsman plans translate beautifully to residential estates and suburban neighbourhoods where character and street presence matter. Our Craftsman collection at BH Designs includes plans ranging from single-storey bungalows to generous double-storey family homes. Interior layouts typically feature a central great room with a fireplace, a well-appointed kitchen open to the living area, and bedrooms arranged for privacy. Many include a main-suite wing with an en-suite bathroom and walk-in dressing room. Foundation options include slab and crawl space, and most designs offer garage configurations from single to triple. All plans are priced in ZAR and delivered digitally for your local architect or engineer to review for SANS 10400 compliance.
