Plan 27410R is a 4-bedroom 2-story house plan in the Cottage and American tradition, with 2879 ft² of living space, a gable roof with dormers and a ridge parallel to the street. Siding wraps the exterior walls, and the facade measures 52'8" wide and 50'0" deep, a single-family home that balances cottage charm with the generous scale of a modern family house.
The main floor follows an open floor plan, so the large family room, the dining area and the kitchen read as one connected space. A fireplace anchors the family room and becomes the natural gathering point on winter evenings. The rear kitchen is built for real cooking and everyday life: a central island, a breakfast bar for quick meals, a breakfast nook framed by a corner window, and a walk-in pantry that keeps supplies out of sight. Because the kitchen sits at the back of the house, it looks out to the rear while staying open to the living area.
This main floor master plan uses a split bedroom layout, setting the master suite apart from the other bedrooms for privacy. The master suite includes a walk-in closet and direct access to the laundry room, which sits on the main floor, a detail that saves countless steps on busy mornings. Two of the secondary bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bath, and in total the home offers three full bathrooms and one half bath for family and guests. A bonus room above the garage adds flexible space for a playroom, home office or guest retreat, and dedicated storage keeps the household organized.
Outside, a covered front porch welcomes visitors and offers a sheltered spot to sit, while a screened porch extends the living space outdoors without the bugs. The 3-car garage comes with front entry and side entry configurations. The house is drawn on the foundation as shown, without a basement, and is also available with a crawl space, slab, monolithic slab, stem wall or basement foundation. Exterior wall framing is as shown, with 2×6 exterior walls available on request. For anyone searching for a cottage house plan with fireplace, a 3-car garage and room for a growing family, this design delivers both character and everyday comfort.
