This house plan can be modified to fit your family’s lifestyle and your lot’s specifics.
Plan 54522R is a 4-bedroom single-story house plan with Modern Craftsman character, offering 3237 ft² of living space on an L-shaped footprint under a hip & valley roof. Craftsman, New American and rustic influences shape the exterior, where stone/brick veneer meets shakes / shingles and large windows draw the eye. The house measures 81'3" wide and 80'3" deep and fits four bedrooms, three full bathrooms and a half bath on one main level, with a bonus room above the garage for anything the family needs next.
The heart of this open concept floor plan is a large family room with a fireplace, a natural gathering place on winter evenings. It flows into a large rear kitchen built for real cooking and easy company: a central island, a breakfast bar for quick meals and conversation, a breakfast nook for slow weekend mornings, and a walk-in pantry that keeps supplies out of sight. Placing the kitchen at the back of the home, on the same side as the covered rear porch, keeps daily life and outdoor time close together. A home office gives remote work or homework a quiet corner of its own.
The split bedrooms layout gives the main floor master real privacy, set apart from the secondary bedrooms, and a walk-in closet adds generous storage. Two of the other bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bath, so each has direct access without crossing the hall, while three full bathrooms and a half bath mean busy mornings run smoothly and guests have a powder room of their own. Laundry on the main floor saves trips up and down stairs, and the bonus/flex room above the garage can become a playroom, a guest suite, a studio or a media room.
An attached 2-car garage with front entry and side entry lets you choose how the cars approach the house. A covered front porch welcomes visitors, and a covered rear porch extends the living space outdoors. The foundation is as shown in the plans, and the design is also available with a crawl space, slab, monolithic slab, stem wall or basement foundation, as well as with 2×6 exterior walls on request. It is a house plan with a fireplace, a flexible bonus room and single-level living that suits a growing family for many years.
