Plan 77707R is a 3-bedroom 2-story luxury house plan with French Country and English character, offering 4547 ft² beneath a hip and valley roof with dormers and walls clad in brick and stone/brick veneer. This L-shaped single-family mansion measures 78'8" wide and 99'3" deep, and it blends European and American traditions into a gracious, livable home with 3 full and 2 half bathrooms, a basement and an elevator connecting every level.
The entry leads into an open floor plan centered on a large family room with vaulted ceilings and a fireplace. The fireplace is 2-sided, so its warmth reaches the space beyond it as well, and on a winter evening the whole heart of the house gathers around one flame. Toward the rear sits the large center kitchen, built for real cooking and easy company: a generous island, a breakfast bar for quick meals, a walk-in pantry, and a breakfast nook brightened by a corner window. Large windows and a bay window bring daylight deep into the main living areas.
The bedrooms follow a split layout for privacy. The main floor master is a quiet retreat with its own sitting area and a walk-in closet, set apart from the secondary bedrooms, which share a Jack & Jill bath. Laundry on the main floor, a mudroom by the garage and a utility room keep daily chores close at hand. A home office suits remote work, while an exercise room, a game room and a bonus room above the garage give the family flexible space for hobbies and guests, with a workshop for weekend projects.
Outside, the 3-car garage has a courtyard entry with side-entry doors, so the front of the house keeps its elegant face. The covered rear porch opens to a patio warmed by an outdoor fireplace, a lovely place for long evenings with friends. The foundation is built as shown on the drawings, with a basement for storage and recreation; the plan is also available with a crawl space, a slab, a monolithic slab or a stem wall foundation, and with 2×6 exterior walls on request.
