This house plan can be modified to fit your family’s lifestyle and your lot’s specifics.
Plan 66120R is a 4-bedroom 3-story house plan that gives a modern farmhouse look a traditional American character, with 1707 ft² of living space under a steep gable roof with an 8/12 pitch. This single-family home has a narrow footprint, 26'5" wide and 35'1" deep, with a height of 29'0". Its ridge runs perpendicular to the street, so the tall gable faces the front and gives the house its clean, recognizable silhouette. Siding covers the exterior walls, which are framed in wood 2x4, and 2x6 framing is also available on request.
A proper entry receives guests and keeps coats, boots and school bags away from the main rooms. The closed floor plan gives every room its own walls and purpose, which suits families who like a calm living room separate from the cooking and the dishes. The large kitchen is the working heart of the house: an island for prep and baking, a breakfast bar for quick meals and homework, and a walk-in pantry that keeps bulk groceries and small appliances out of sight. On winter evenings these separate rooms hold warmth and quiet conversation well.
The master suite is on the second floor, and the bedrooms are clustered together, so parents stay close to younger children at night. Three full bathrooms serve the four bedrooms, which keeps busy mornings moving without a line at the door. The laundry is on the second floor as well, right where clothes and linens are used, saving many trips on the stairs. A loft adds flexible space for a reading corner, a play area or a home office.
The house stands on a slab foundation, and the plan is also available with a walkout basement or a crawl space. The front-entry garage for one car is part of the house, with living space above it. A covered front porch greets visitors and offers a sheltered spot for morning coffee, while the deck brings summer dinners and weekend gatherings outdoors. For anyone comparing 4 bedroom house plans with a garage and a house plan with a loft, this traditional design fits a full family life into a compact, well-ordered frame.
