This house plan can be modified to fit your family’s lifestyle and your lot’s specifics.
Plan 70787R is a 4-bedroom three-story house plan that pairs country warmth with crisp New American lines in an L-shaped single family home of 4610 ft². A hip and valley roof with an 8/12 pitch tops walls clad in siding, and the modern farmhouse look reads as polished and traditional rather than rustic. The house measures 65'8" wide and 88'0" deep, with a height of 31'11", and includes 3 full bathrooms plus a half bath.
The entry opens into an open floor plan centered on a large family room, where a fireplace anchors the seating area and the space is open to below, so a loft on the upper level looks down over it. This is a house plan with a fireplace that feels generous on winter evenings without losing its sense of scale. The large kitchen works as the hub of daily life: an island and a breakfast bar give room for cooking and conversation at once, a breakfast nook holds the morning table, and a walk-in pantry keeps supplies out of sight. A home office gives a quiet place to work away from the family room.
The bedrooms follow a split layout. The main floor master sits apart from the secondary bedrooms and comes with a walk-in closet, while two of the other bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bath. Laundry on the main floor and a mudroom handle the everyday traffic of shoes, coats and bags. A bonus room above the garage serves as a flex space for guests, hobbies or play, and an exercise room makes it easy to keep a routine at home.
Outside, the 3-car garage with space upstairs has a courtyard entry, so the doors face a courtyard instead of the street and the front stays calm. A covered front porch welcomes visitors, and a covered rear porch and a screened porch extend the living spaces outdoors through the warmer months. The house is designed on a crawl space foundation and is also available with a slab or a walkout basement. Exterior walls are framed with 2x4 wood studs, with 2x6 wood framing available on request.
