2-Story House Plan with Basement 2146 ft²: 5 Beds, Home Office, 3.5 Baths, Open Floor Plan, 2-Car Garage

House plan 78539R is a family home of 2146 ft², designed to be lived in all year round in the country or the suburbs. Its outline measures 38'0" wide and 64'0" deep, so the house is noticeably longer than it is wide, with a modest front and a generous length behind it. This elongated footprint gives the home a calm, orderly shape and leaves plenty of room for everyday family life, from busy mornings to quiet evenings.

The base plan comes without a basement, and the foundation is one of the decisions that make this house your own. Three foundation options are available on request. A slab keeps the home close to the ground and is the simplest of the three in form. A crawl space raises the floor slightly and leaves an accessible space beneath it for pipes and ducts. A walkout basement adds a lower level with its own door to the outside, making this a house plan with a walkout basement for families who want extra space for storage, hobbies or guests.

The exterior walls offer a similar choice, with wood 2x4 and wood 2x6 framing both available on request. A 2x4 wall is a familiar standard in North American home building, while a 2x6 wall is thicker and leaves a deeper cavity for insulation, a detail that matters in a house used through every season.

Taken together, these options let plan 78539R adapt to the way a family intends to build. The proportions of the house stay the same, while the foundation and the wall framing can be selected to suit the project. It is worth settling both with your builder early, since they shape the construction of the home from the ground up and, with a walkout basement, the amount of usable space as well.
