Is this the right plan for you?

Most regret comes from buying a plan that doesn't fit your life. Skim this before you decide.

Great fit if you…
  • Have a large family or frequently host gatherings (3 bedrooms plus bonus room and loft, two-story grand room with fireplace)
  • Love entertaining and outdoor living (outdoor fireplace, covered rear porch, and covered front porch)
  • Plan future expansion or want adaptable living space (unfinished basement with 9-foot ceilings plus loft and bonus room)
  • Want dramatic architectural features and vertical space (two-story grand room with soaring ceilings)
  • Working with a wider lot and seeking rustic or country aesthetic (72 ft wide, country-style exterior)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need 4+ finished bedrooms immediately—plan has 3 finished bedrooms and unfinished bonus space (bonus room and loft are unfinished or secondary spaces)
  • Prefer single-story layouts without stairs (two-story design with multiple floor levels)
  • Want a compact, efficient footprint to minimize build costs (1,935 sq ft plus unfinished basement)
  • Seeking minimal outdoor maintenance requirements (extensive covered porches and outdoor fireplace require upkeep)
  • Need a single-car or no garage (plan includes two-car garage only)

About this plan

This stunning country house plan combines rustic charm with modern functionality across 1,935 square feet of heated living space plus an unfinished basement with 9-foot ceilings. Featuring a dramatic two-story grand room, flexible loft and bonus room, and expansive outdoor living areas with an outdoor fireplace, this two-story home delivers timeless architectural appeal and long-term adaptability.

The exterior showcases classic country-style architecture highlighted by a steep 10:12 roof pitch, welcoming covered front porch, and spacious covered rear porch with outdoor fireplace—perfect for entertaining and relaxation. Inside, the open-concept floor plan centers on an impressive two-story grand room with fireplace, soaring ceilings, and abundant windows that fill the home with natural light and create a stunning focal point.

The gourmet kitchen features a large island, eating bar, and spacious walk-in pantry, opening seamlessly to the dining area and covered rear porch for effortless indoor-outdoor entertaining. The first-floor master suite provides a peaceful retreat with a private master bath featuring double vanity sinks and a generous walk-in closet. A split-bedroom layout separates the master from secondary bedrooms, enhancing privacy. Three bedrooms and two full baths plus a half bath accommodate family and guests comfortably.

The second floor features two additional bedrooms and a versatile loft overlooking the grand room below, while a flexible bonus room on the main level can function as a guest suite, media room, hobby space, or future bedroom. A well-designed mud room adds practical storage and transition space. The unfinished basement with 9-foot ceilings offers significant expansion potential for future living areas, entertainment spaces, or storage. Built on a basement foundation with 2x6 wall framing, measuring 72 feet wide by 45 feet deep, this country home combines character, flexibility, and exceptional functionality for modern family living.
