This house plan can be modified to fit your family’s lifestyle and your lot’s specifics.
Plan 97585R is a 4-bedroom single-story house plan with a walkout basement, offering 1588 ft² of Craftsman and American character under a hip & valley roof. The exterior blends siding, stone/brick veneer and natural stone, and the home measures 42'0" wide and 70'0" deep. Inside are three full bathrooms, a reverse living layout and vaulted ceilings that give the main level a lofty, open feel.
The open floor plan centers on a large family room with a fireplace, the natural gathering spot on a winter evening. It flows straight into a generous kitchen built for both cooking and company: a central island, a breakfast bar for quick meals and a walk-in pantry that keeps supplies out of sight. Large windows bring daylight deep into the shared spaces. With the reverse living arrangement, the day rooms sit up on the main level above the walkout basement, so the family room and kitchen stay at the heart of the house. A media room offers a second place to relax, separate from the bustle of the kitchen.
The master suite is on the main floor and includes a walk-in closet. The bedrooms are clustered, which keeps the sleeping quarters close together and makes life with young children easier. A home office gives space for remote work or homework, and the laundry on the main floor saves trips up and down the stairs. A utility room and a defined entry round out the practical side of this Craftsman house plan, keeping coats, shoes and household systems organized.
The house stands on a walkout basement, with slab and crawl space foundations available on request. Exterior walls are framed with wood 2x6, and wood 2x4 framing is also available. A front-entry 2-car garage extends forward of the house, creating a welcoming courtyard by the approach. Out back, a covered rear porch offers shade for morning coffee, while the patio and the deck add room for grilling, dining and summer gatherings. For buyers who want one-level living, a house plan with a fireplace and an open kitchen, and the flexibility of a lower level, this design delivers it all in a well-organized footprint.
