Plan 80236R is a 4-bedroom two-story house plan with a modern farmhouse look and American country character, offering 2449 ft² of living space beneath a hip and valley roof. Siding covers the exterior walls, and the house measures 49'11" wide and 59'0" deep. The layout includes four bedrooms, two full bathrooms and a half bath, with the master suite on the main floor and a loft on the upper level.
The front entry leads into an open floor plan where the large family room, the kitchen and the breakfast nook share one continuous space. The family room is anchored by a fireplace, which makes this a house plan with fireplace that suits both quiet winter evenings and gatherings with friends. The large kitchen works hard for a busy household: an island with a breakfast bar for quick meals and homework, a breakfast nook for relaxed mornings, and a walk-in pantry that keeps groceries and small appliances out of sight. Because the rooms flow into one another, whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation.
The bedrooms follow a split arrangement, so the main floor master sits apart from the other three bedrooms and gives the owners real privacy. The master suite includes a walk-in closet, and the two full bathrooms and the half bath are distributed so that family members and guests each have convenient access. The laundry is on the main floor, sparing trips up and down the stairs with baskets, while the loft offers a flexible spot for a reading corner, a playroom or a quiet home office.
Outside, a wraparound porch gives the home its welcoming farmhouse profile, joined by a covered front porch and a covered rear porch for shaded seating on both sides of the house. The plan is drawn with the foundation as shown, and it is also available on request with a crawl space, a slab, a monolithic slab, a stem wall or a basement foundation. 2×6 exterior walls are offered as an option as well, letting you adapt the construction to your building needs.
