Plan 97890R is a 4-bedroom 2-story house plan that gives 3062 ft² of family living a modern farmhouse character under a gambrel roof with hip-and-valley sections and dormers. Siding wraps the exterior walls, and New American and traditional lines keep the facade balanced and welcoming. The house measures 54'0" wide and 69'0" deep and includes four bedrooms, three full bathrooms and one half bathroom, a single family home planned for everyday life all year round.
Past the entry, an open floor plan joins the family room, the kitchen and the breakfast nook into one connected space. Vaulted ceilings lift the family room, and its fireplace becomes the natural gathering point on winter evenings. The large kitchen is made for real cooking and real conversation: an island anchors the work zone, a breakfast bar seats quick meals and homework sessions, and a walk-in pantry keeps supplies organized and out of sight. The breakfast nook offers a quieter corner for the first coffee of the morning while staying open to the rest of the home.
The master suite is on the main floor, a layout many families choose when they want the owners' bedroom on the same level as the living areas, and it comes with a walk-in closet. The bedrooms are clustered together, which keeps the family close and the sleeping wing simple to navigate. Laundry on the main floor saves trips up and down the stairs, and the half bathroom serves guests without sending them toward the private rooms. Above the garage, a bonus room adds flexible space for a playroom, a home office, a hobby room or overnight guests.
The house stands on the foundation as shown in the plans, and it is also available on request with a crawl space, slab, monolithic slab, stem wall or basement; 2×6 exterior walls can be specified as well. A 2-car side-entry garage keeps the garage doors off the front facade, so the covered front porch takes the lead when visitors arrive. At the back, a screened porch extends the living area outdoors, a comfortable place for summer dinners and quiet evenings sheltered from insects. For a family looking for a farmhouse-inspired house plan with a fireplace, a main floor master and room to grow, this design brings all of it together.
