2-Story House Plan 2261 ft²: 3 Beds, 3 Baths, without Garage

Plan 12830R is a 3-bedroom 3-story house plan in the Colonial tradition, offering 2261 ft² of living space beneath a hip and valley roof with a 6/12 pitch. This single-family home blends Traditional and American character with a square footprint 36'9" wide and 37'9" deep, standing 29'5" high. Siding wraps the exterior walls, which are framed in 2x6 wood for a sturdy, classic build.

The main floor follows a closed floor plan, so each room keeps its own purpose and a quieter feel, which many families value for everyday life and for entertaining. The large kitchen is the working heart of the house: an island gives generous prep space, a breakfast bar invites quick meals and casual conversation, and a walk-in pantry keeps groceries and small appliances out of sight. Part of the home is open to below, and the double-height space links the floors and lets daylight travel deeper inside. Laundry on the main floor saves trips up and down the stairs on busy weekdays.

All three bedrooms come with their own full bathroom, three in total. The master suite sits on the second floor and includes a walk-in closet, while the clustered bedrooms keep the family close together, which is handy with young children. The in-law suite makes this a practical house plan with in-law suite for visiting parents, older relatives or long-stay guests, giving them privacy under the same roof. A bonus/flex room adapts as needs change: a home office, a playroom, a hobby space or a quiet place to read on winter evenings.

The home stands on a slab foundation and is also available with a walkout basement or a crawl space, and the exterior walls can be drawn with 2x4 framing on request. The plan does not include a garage, which keeps the 2261 ft² devoted to living space. With its hip and valley roof, clean siding and balanced square form, this Colonial house plan suits a family that wants timeless curb appeal and three stories of well-organized rooms.
