This house plan can be modified to fit your family’s lifestyle and your lot’s specifics.
Plan 43340R is a 4-bedroom 3-story house plan with 2648 ft² of living space under a hip & valley roof. It draws on Craftsman and New American design, with a transitional, modern craftsman character. Stucco exterior walls give this traditional single family home a clean, timeless face. The house measures 40'0" wide and 57'0" deep and includes four bedrooms, three full bathrooms and a two-car garage. It is a layout built for a growing family, and for relatives who come to stay for a season or for good.
The entry leads into an open floor plan where the family room, the dining area and the kitchen share one generous space. A fireplace in the family room anchors the gathering area and makes this a true house plan with fireplace for long winter evenings. The large kitchen centers on an island with a breakfast bar, so homework, coffee and conversation happen right beside the cook. A breakfast nook adds a relaxed spot for everyday meals. The walk-in pantry keeps bulk groceries and small appliances out of sight. Laundry on the main floor and a separate utility room handle the daily routine without crossing the house.
The master suite sits on the second floor and includes a walk-in closet. The other bedrooms are clustered nearby, which suits families with young children. Two of them share a Jack & Jill bath, so each child has private access without a trip down the hall. The plan also offers an in-law suite and two kitchens, which gives extended family real independence under one roof. A bonus/flex room can become a playroom, a home office or a quiet media space as needs change. Few 4 bedroom house plans offer this much flexibility.
Outside, a covered front porch welcomes guests, and a covered rear porch extends living into the backyard. The stacked porches and a balcony bring fresh air to the upper level as well, a fine place for morning coffee. The front-entry two-car garage extends forward of the house, which keeps the rear porch and yard open. The home stands on a slab foundation with 2x6 wood exterior wall framing, and it is also available with a walkout basement or a crawl space, or with 2x4 framing, on request.
