Plan 44273R is a 4-bedroom two-story house plan in the Craftsman spirit, offering 2827 ft² under a gable roof accented with dormers and finished with siding on the exterior walls. The L-shaped footprint measures 73'0" wide and 52'7" deep, and its single family design blends New American and Modern Craftsman lines with a traditional American character. The layout includes 3 full bathrooms and a half bath.
A covered front porch and a portico frame the arrival, and the entry opens to an open floor plan built around a large family room. A fireplace anchors that room, and vaulted ceilings give the main living area height and air, so winter evenings by the fire feel generous rather than closed in. The large rear kitchen sits at the back of the house, with an island, a breakfast bar for quick meals and a walk-in pantry that keeps supplies out of sight. A sunroom extends the living space toward the light and gives the family a bright spot for morning coffee, reading or a quiet afternoon.
The master suite is on the main floor, and the split bedrooms arrangement keeps it apart from the other bedrooms for real privacy. The suite includes a walk-in closet and direct access to the laundry, a convenience that turns a daily chore into a few steps. With laundry on the main floor and a mudroom near the everyday entrance, coats, boots and bags have their own place instead of the hallway. Above the garage, a bonus/flex room is ready to become a playroom, home office, guest space or hobby room as the family grows.
Outside, the two-car garage with upstairs space extends forward and is reached through a courtyard entry, which shapes a sheltered courtyard in front of the house and keeps the garage doors from dominating the facade. A balcony adds an outdoor perch on the upper level. The foundation is as shown on the plans, and the house plan is also available with a crawl space, slab, monolithic slab, stem wall or basement foundation. The exterior wall framing is as shown, with 2×6 exterior walls available on request. Altogether this Craftsman house plan with a fireplace, a main floor master and a bonus room above the garage offers a refined, practical home for year-round family life.
