This house plan can be modified to fit your family’s lifestyle and your lot’s specifics.
Plan 41490R is a 6-bedroom single-story house plan with a walkout basement, offering 1568 ft² of living space beneath a hip and valley roof. Its Craftsman character is blended with New American, Northwest and traditional American touches, and the L-shaped footprint measures 45'6" wide and 71'5" deep. Siding paired with stone/brick veneer dresses the facade, while large windows and a bay window bring generous daylight into the rooms. With three full bathrooms and a 2-car garage, this single family home is planned for a large household that wants room for everyone without giving up a calm, well-organized layout.
The shared spaces follow an open floor plan centered on a large family room with a fireplace, the natural gathering place on winter evenings. The family room flows into a large kitchen, where a breakfast bar handles quick meals and conversation with the cook, and a breakfast nook offers a quieter corner for morning coffee. The reverse living arrangement keeps these everyday rooms on the upper, main level, and the covered rear porch and the balcony extend them outdoors. A media room and a bonus/flex room add space for movie nights, a home office, a playroom or a guest retreat, so the house adapts as the family's needs change.
The master suite sits on the main floor and includes a walk-in closet, while the bedrooms are clustered together, which keeps children close and makes daily routines simple. Six bedrooms and three full baths mean visiting grandparents, older kids and overnight guests each have their own place. The practical side of the home is just as thoughtful: laundry on the main floor, a separate utility room, plenty of storage and a proper entry that gives the house an orderly welcome.
Outside, a covered front porch greets visitors, and stacked porches create sheltered outdoor living on two levels, a fine spot for summer dinners or a quiet hour with a book. The front-entry 2-car garage extends forward of the house, shaping the L-shaped plan and framing the approach. This house plan with a walkout basement is drawn on that foundation, and it is also available with a slab or a crawl space. Exterior walls are framed with 2x6 wood studs, with 2x4 framing available on request, making this Craftsman house plan a flexible choice for families who want a 6-bedroom single-story house plan with real living space below.
