Plan 99208R is a 4-bedroom 2-story house plan in the French Country style, with 6811 ft² of living space beneath a hip and valley roof accented by dormers. The H-shaped footprint gives this luxury home the presence of a true mansion, while its European and traditional American details keep it welcoming. Stone/brick veneer exterior walls wrap the house, and the ridge runs parallel to the street, so the long facade reads calm and balanced. The house measures 115'5" wide and 75'0" deep.
The entry leads into an open floor plan built around a large family room with a fireplace and an area open to below, so the upper level looks down onto the heart of the house. Vaulted ceilings add height and volume to the main living spaces. The large kitchen is made for a busy household: a central island, a breakfast bar for quick meals and conversation, and a walk-in pantry that keeps supplies close at hand without cluttering the counters. A home office gives a quiet place to work, and on winter evenings the fireplace draws everyone back together.
The main floor master suite answers a common search for a single-level primary bedroom, and the split bedrooms layout keeps it apart from the other bedrooms for privacy. A walk-in closet serves the master. With 4 full bathrooms and 2 half baths, every bedroom and every guest is well served. The bonus level upstairs and a game room give the family space for hobbies, movies or visiting relatives. Practical rooms are just as thoughtful: a mudroom catches coats and boots, the laundry on the main floor sits in a dedicated utility room, and extra storage keeps the living areas tidy.
Outside, a covered front porch frames the arrival, and a covered rear porch opens the house to the yard. An outdoor kitchen, an outdoor fireplace and a 2-sided fireplace make this a house plan with outdoor living at its center, from summer dinners to cool autumn nights. The attached 3-car garage has a side entry, which keeps the garage doors off the main facade. The foundation is as shown in the drawings, and the plan is also available on request with a crawl space, a slab, a monolithic slab, a stem wall or a basement. Exterior walls are framed as shown, with 2×6 exterior walls available as an option.
