This house plan can be modified to fit your family’s lifestyle and your lot’s specifics.
Plan 24032R is a 4-bedroom single-story house plan of 1557 ft² that pairs Craftsman character with the relaxed lines of Northwest design under a hip & valley roof. Traditional American proportions shape the front elevation, where siding meets stone/brick veneer, and the exterior walls are framed in 2x6 wood, with 2x4 framing also available on request. The home measures 40'0" wide and 71'4" deep and stands on a walkout basement, so a full lower level supports the main floor.
A welcoming entry leads into an open floor plan where the family room, dining area and kitchen work as one connected space. The fireplace in the family room anchors the arrangement and makes this a true house plan with fireplace for long winter evenings. The large kitchen offers more than enough room to cook together: a central island, a breakfast bar for quick meals, a breakfast nook for slower mornings and a walk-in pantry that keeps supplies close at hand. The reverse living layout places these gathering spaces on the upper level, above the walkout basement.
The bedrooms follow a split layout. The main floor master stands apart from the other rooms and comes with a walk-in closet and its own full bath, while two of the secondary bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bath. Two full bathrooms and one half bath serve the household and guests. A home office gives remote work a quiet corner, a media room is ready for movie nights, and the laundry on the main floor, together with a separate utility room, keeps everyday chores simple.
Outside, a covered front porch greets visitors, and a covered rear porch extends the living space outdoors. Stacked porches and a balcony layer the back of the house, giving both levels a place to sit in the open air. The front entry 2-car garage extends forward of the home and connects to the house for easy arrivals. Built for a walkout basement house plan, the design is also available with a slab or a crawl space foundation.
