1-Story House Plan with Basement 1849 ft²: 4 Beds, Home Office, 2.5 Baths, Open Floor Plan, 2-Car Garage

House plan 78103R is a family home of 1849 ft², designed for year-round living in the country or the suburbs and measuring 55'0" wide and 81'0" deep. Its footprint is deeper than it is wide, and its foundation and exterior wall framing can both be chosen on request, which makes this floor plan a flexible starting point for a custom build.

The standard plan does not include a basement, and three foundation options are available on request. A slab sets the house on a solid concrete base close to the ground, with no level below the main floors. A crawl space leaves a shallow, accessible space under the house, which is useful for reaching pipes and ducts. For a family that wants more room, a walkout basement option adds a lower level with its own door to the outside, a natural place for storage, hobbies or quiet evenings away from the rest of the house.

The exterior walls offer a second choice. Wood 2x6 framing gives a deeper wall with more room for insulation, a real comfort on cold winter nights. Wood 2x4 framing is the slimmer, more traditional option, widely familiar to builders across the US and Canada.

These decisions shape how the home is built and how it will serve the family for years to come, so they are best made early, together with your builder. With 1849 ft² to work with, house plan 78103R lets you match the foundation and walls to your own priorities before construction begins.
