This house plan can be modified to fit your family’s lifestyle and your lot’s specifics.
Plan 23685R is a 5-bedroom single-story house plan with 2299 ft² of living space on one main level above a walkout basement. Craftsman, Mountain, New American and Northwest influences meet under a hip & valley roof. The L-shaped layout measures 54'0" wide and 101'0" deep, and the exterior pairs stone/brick veneer with stucco for a grounded American look. The home has 3 full bathrooms, and the exterior walls are framed in 2x6 wood, with 2x4 framing available on request.
The entry leads into an open floor plan built around a large family room with vaulted ceilings and a fireplace, the natural place to gather on winter evenings. The plan follows a reverse living arrangement, so the daily living spaces stay on the upper, entry level, close to the large windows and the porches. The large kitchen centers on an island with a breakfast bar, and a breakfast nook offers a relaxed spot for morning coffee. A walk-in pantry keeps supplies out of sight, so the kitchen stays clear and connected to the family room.
The master suite is on the main floor, which makes everyday life easy for years to come. The bedrooms are clustered, and two of them share a Jack & Jill bath, giving children or guests privacy without extra hallways. The plan includes a walk-in closet and a home office for remote work. A game room and a media room give the family space for movie nights and play, apart from the quieter rooms. A wine room, a utility room and laundry on the main floor complete the practical side of the house.
Outside, stacked porches shape the character of this house plan with walkout basement: a covered front porch welcomes guests, while a covered rear porch, a deck and a balcony open the back of the home to the outdoors. The front entry 3-car garage extends forward and forms the L shape of the house. The walkout basement is the main foundation, and the plan is also available with a slab or a crawl space foundation.
