This house plan can be modified to fit your family’s lifestyle and your lot’s specifics.
Plan 29511R is a 5-bedroom 3-story house plan that pairs Craftsman detailing with a Transitional, distinctly American character, offering 2186 ft² of living space beneath a hip and hip-and-valley roof. Siding covers the exterior walls, which are framed in 2x6 wood, with 2x4 framing also available on request. The house measures 49'0" wide and 52'0" deep, and four full bathrooms plus a half bath make this single-family home comfortable for a large household and visiting guests.
The interior follows a reverse living concept, placing the main gathering spaces higher in the house, where daylight is at its best. An open floor plan joins the family room and its fireplace with the dining area and a large kitchen, while a section open to below adds height and links the levels visually. The kitchen is planned for real cooking and busy mornings: a central island, a breakfast bar for quick meals, a breakfast nook for relaxed family breakfasts and a walk-in pantry that keeps supplies neatly out of sight. On winter evenings, the fireplace becomes the natural heart of the home.
The five bedrooms use a split arrangement, giving parents, children and guests their own quiet zones. The master suite is on the second floor and includes a walk-in closet, and a separate sitting area provides a calm corner for reading or conversation. Laundry on the main floor saves trips up and down the stairs, while a utility room and dedicated storage handle the practical side of daily life. A media room is ready for movie nights, and the bonus/flex room can serve as a home office, playroom or gym as the family's needs change. A defined entry welcomes everyone inside.
This house plan with walkout basement opens its lowest level directly to the outdoors; slab and crawl space foundations are also available. A front-entry 2-car garage extends forward of the facade. Stacked porches and a balcony give the upper levels their own fresh-air spots, a covered rear porch shelters summer dinners, and a deck and patio round out the outdoor living spaces of this Craftsman house plan.
