2-Story House Plan 2585 ft²: 4 Beds, Home Office, 3 Baths, Open Floor Plan, 2-Car Garage

Plan 38497R is a 4-bedroom 3-story house plan that places 2585 ft² of living space inside a Modern Craftsman exterior under a hip & valley roof. Stone/brick veneer and stucco share the facade, so the house reads as Traditional at first glance and Transitional on a closer look, with the relaxed proportions of the New American style. The house measures 39'0" wide and 51'0" deep, and its exterior walls are framed in 2x6 wood, with 2x4 framing also available on request.

A covered front porch leads to a defined entry, and from there the main floor opens up. The open floor plan joins a large family room with vaulted ceilings and a fireplace to a large kitchen, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. The island gives generous prep space, the breakfast bar seats a few people for a quick meal, and the breakfast nook makes a quieter spot for morning coffee. On winter evenings the fireplace becomes the natural gathering point. The plan includes 2 kitchens, a rare feature that adds real flexibility for a household that cooks a lot or shares the house across generations.

The bedrooms are clustered, and the master suite sits on the second floor, away from the daily traffic of the main level. Three full bathrooms serve the four bedrooms, so mornings run without a queue. An in-law suite lets parents, a grown child or long-stay guests live with the family while keeping their own space, which makes this a practical house plan with in-law suite for multigenerational living. A home office supports remote work, and the laundry on the main floor sits alongside a utility room and dedicated storage, keeping the household routine organized.

The home stands on a slab foundation and is also available with a walkout basement or a crawl space. The front-entry 2-car garage has space upstairs, adding room the family can shape to its own needs. Stacked porches give the rear of the house outdoor living on more than one level: a covered rear porch on the ground and a balcony above, where summer evenings stretch out a little longer.
