2-Story House Plan 3559 ft²: 3 Beds, 3.5 Baths, 2-Car Garage

Plan 61518R is a 3-bedroom, 3-story house plan in the Charleston and Low Country tradition, offering 3559 ft² beneath a hip and valley roof accented with dormers, its ridge set perpendicular to the street. Coastal and Southern details give this American single-family home a gracious, unhurried presence. The house measures 39'0" wide and 80'1" deep, is finished in siding, and includes three full bathrooms and one half bath.

Inside, a closed floor plan gives each room its own purpose and a quiet sense of enclosure. The large family room is anchored by a fireplace, a place to gather when the evenings turn cool. The large kitchen is built for real use, with an island, a breakfast bar for quick meals and a breakfast nook for slower mornings. A second, rear kitchen sits behind it, so prep work and cleanup during holidays and dinner parties stay out of sight. The mudroom handles shoes, coats and bags before they reach the living spaces, and the laundry is on the main floor.

The bedroom layout is the defining feature. This plan has 2 master suites, one on the main floor and one on the second floor, and the split bedrooms keep them apart for privacy. The main floor master connects directly to the laundry and has a walk-in closet, which makes daily routines simpler. An in-law suite gives extended family or long-staying guests their own comfortable quarters. Beyond the bedrooms, the house offers a media room for movie nights, an exercise room, and a bonus/flex room that can become a study, a playroom or a hobby space as needs change.

Outside, the house plan lives as much on its porches as indoors. A covered front porch greets visitors, and the stacked porches with a balcony above echo classic Charleston homes, giving shade below and a breezy perch upstairs. A screened porch offers bug-free summer evenings, and an outdoor fireplace extends outdoor living well into the cooler months. The rear entry garage holds 2 cars and keeps the front facade uncluttered, while the bonus room above the garage adds extra living space. The foundation is as shown in the drawings; the plan is also available on request with a crawl space, slab, monolithic slab, stem wall or basement foundation, and with 2×6 exterior walls.
