Plan 14691R is a 4-bedroom 2 story house plan that pairs Craftsman detailing with a modern farmhouse character, offering 2589 ft² of living space beneath a hip and valley roof accented with dormers. The T-shaped footprint measures 76'4" wide and 67'4" deep, and the exterior combines siding with brick, a blend that sits easily between New American and traditional American design. With three full bathrooms, a half bath and a two-car garage, this single-family home is planned for a busy household that wants room to grow.
The main floor opens around a large family room, where a fireplace anchors the seating area and draws everyone together on winter evenings. This open floor plan flows toward the rear of the house, where a generously sized kitchen takes its place with a central island, a breakfast bar for quick meals and a breakfast nook for slower weekend mornings. A walk-in pantry keeps supplies out of sight, so the island stays clear for cooking, homework or conversation while someone tends the fire in the next room.
Bedrooms follow a split layout. The main floor master is set apart from the secondary bedrooms for quiet and privacy, and a walk-in closet adds generous storage for clothes. Three full bathrooms and a powder room serve family and guests without a morning queue. Laundry is on the main floor in a dedicated utility room, and an extra storage room helps keep everyday clutter in check. Above the garage, a bonus room makes this a house plan with flexible space for a home office, playroom, media room or guest quarters.
Outside, a portico marks the entrance and leads onto a covered front porch, while a covered rear porch extends living space outdoors at the back of the house. The two-car garage has a side entry, which keeps the front elevation calm and lets the porch and the brick-and-siding facade take center stage. The foundation is built as shown on the plans, and the design is also available with a crawl space, slab, monolithic slab, stem wall or basement on request. Exterior walls are framed as shown, with 2×6 exterior walls offered as an option.
