This house plan can be modified to fit your family’s lifestyle and your lot’s specifics.
Plan 28892R is a 5-bedroom single-story house plan with a walkout basement, offering 1556 ft² under a hip and valley roof. The design draws on Craftsman, Northwest and traditional American architecture, with siding on the exterior walls and 2x6 wood framing. The house measures 40'0" wide and 66'0" deep, and it is laid out as a single family home with a reverse living arrangement, so the main living spaces sit on the upper, main level.
The open floor plan gathers the family room, kitchen and dining area into one connected space. The large family room is anchored by a fireplace, a natural gathering point on winter evenings. The large kitchen is built for everyday cooking and entertaining. A central island and a breakfast bar give room for quick meals and helping hands, and a breakfast nook with a corner window brings in morning light from two directions. The entry leads straight into this heart of the house, while the balcony extends the living area outdoors.
The master suite is on the main floor and includes a walk-in closet, and the bedrooms are clustered for a calm, private sleeping zone. With five bedrooms and three full bathrooms, the plan suits a growing family, guests or a home office. A media room and a bonus/flex room add space for movie nights, hobbies or play. Practical needs are well covered: laundry on the main floor, a separate utility room and dedicated storage keep daily chores organized and out of sight.
Outside, the house stands on a walkout basement. Slab and crawl space foundations are also available on request, as is 2x4 wood framing. A two-car front entry garage handles vehicles and gear. Stacked porches, with a covered front porch and a covered rear porch, offer sheltered spots to sit outdoors in any weather and give the facade a welcoming, classic Craftsman character.
