2-Story House Plan 3059 ft²: 4 Beds, 3.5 Baths, Open Floor Plan, 2-Car Garage

Plan 71278R is a 4-bedroom 3-story house plan for a single family home, covering 3059 ft² across three levels and measuring 51'0" wide and 53'0" deep. Its exterior pairs stone/brick veneer with shakes and shingles, a combination that gives the facade texture and a sense of permanence. With three full bathrooms, a half bath and a side-entry garage for two cars, the home is planned for everyday family life as well as long visits from relatives.

The defining feature of this floor plan is the in-law suite, which gives grandparents, an adult child or long-staying guests their own private quarters inside the house. Because the plan includes three full bathrooms, the suite and the family bedrooms do not compete for a shared bath, and the half bathroom serves visitors without sending them through the private rooms. Spreading the home over three stories also separates the busy daytime rooms from the quiet ones, so early mornings and late evenings run on different rhythms without disturbing anyone.

Among the four bedrooms, the walk-in closet adds generous storage and keeps clothing out of the sleeping area. A dedicated laundry room handles the weekly wash in its own space, away from the living areas. The bonus/flex room is the most adaptable part of this 4 bedroom house plan: it can become a home office, a playroom, a gym or a media room, and it can change its role as the family grows.

Outside, the attached two-car garage with side entry keeps the garage doors off the main facade, so the front of the house is led by stone, brick and shingle rather than by doors. The plan is designed without a basement, with all of its living space above grade on its three levels. For a household that wants room for several generations, a flexible extra room and a refined exterior, this house plan with an in-law suite offers a well-balanced layout.
