2-Story House Plan with Basement 1817 ft²: 4 Beds, Home Office, 3.5 Baths, Open Floor Plan, 2-Car Garage

House plan 62873R is a family home of 1817 ft², set on a nearly square footprint 47'0" wide and 49'0" deep, with a choice of foundation and exterior wall framing. It is designed as a year-round residence for the country or the suburbs. Because the house is only slightly deeper than it is wide, its outline stays compact and balanced, and several key construction decisions remain open until you are ready to build.

The first of those decisions is what the house will stand on. Three foundations are available on request: a slab, a crawl space or a walkout basement. A slab foundation house plan keeps the structure close to the ground, while a crawl space leaves accessible room under the floors for pipes and ducts. The plan does not include a basement as standard, so the walkout basement is the option to choose for a house plan with a lower level that has its own door to the outdoors. That extra level can give a growing family more room for everyday life.

The exterior walls offer a second choice, as the plan is available with either Wood 2x6 or Wood 2x4 framing. A 2x6 wall has a deeper cavity and so leaves more room for insulation, a real advantage on long winter evenings, while a 2x4 wall is the slimmer alternative.

Together, these options let house plan 62873R follow your own priorities. With 1817 ft² in total and clear outer dimensions, the home is easy to assess from the start, and the foundation and framing can be settled to suit the way your family intends to build and live.
