1.5-Story House Plan with Basement 2207 ft²: 5 Beds, Home Office, 3.5 Baths, Open Floor Plan, 3-Car Garage

House plan 14460R is a family house plan of 2207 ft², designed as a year-round home for the country or the suburbs and measuring 57'0" wide and 70'0" deep. These proportions make the house deeper than it is wide, so it reaches back from its front elevation rather than spreading across it. For a family, 2207 ft² offers a comfortable scale for everyday life, for quiet mornings as well as for days when the whole household is at home.

The foundation can be matched to the way the house will be built and used. This plan does not include a basement as standard, but it is available on request as a house plan with a walkout basement, which adds a lower level with direct access to the outdoors. It is also available with a slab, a simple choice that keeps the home close to the ground, or with a crawl space, which leaves accessible room beneath the floors for the home's services.

The exterior walls offer a similar choice. Wood 2x6 framing is available on request, and its deeper wall cavity leaves more room for insulation, a real advantage on long winter evenings. Wood 2x4 framing is also available, giving the builder a familiar, widely used method of construction.

Together, these options let a family and their builder shape the technical side of plan 14460R before construction begins. The choice of a slab, a crawl space or a walkout basement, combined with the wall framing, turns one floor plan into a house prepared for the way its owners want to live in it, in every season of the year.
