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 collection of vehicles or equipment (5-car garage with 1,474 sq ft)
  • Entertain frequently and want extensive covered and outdoor living space (480-sq-ft rear deck with outdoor fireplace, 89-sq-ft covered front porch)
  • Need flexible guest accommodation or multi-generational space (game room, walkout basement with 1,835 sq ft unfinished)
  • Want a dedicated home office on the main floor separate from living areas (home office/study)
  • Own acreage and want to utilize a wide lot frontage (127-foot width, 76-foot depth)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Have a tight lot under 100 feet wide — this design needs 127+ feet of width
  • Want to minimize build costs and square footage (3,986 sq ft of heated space plus 1,835 sq ft basement)
  • Prefer all bedrooms on one level (4 bedrooms split across two stories)
  • Need main-floor laundry convenient to all bedrooms — laundry is master-suite focused

About this plan

French Country Estate Plan with 5-Car Garage & Outdoor Entertaining

This French Country house plan spans 3,986 square feet across two stories, delivering grand-scale living suited to large properties and serious outdoor entertaining. The main floor provides 2,862 square feet under 10-foot ceilings, anchored by an open-concept great room with fireplace, a chef kitchen with large island and walk-in pantry, and a formal dining room. A first-floor master suite includes a sitting area, dual walk-in closets, and direct laundry access from the master bedroom.

The upstairs houses additional bedrooms and a dedicated game room, creating distinct zones for guests or multi-generational use. A 480-square-foot rear deck features an outdoor fireplace, ideal for year-round entertaining. The 89-square-foot covered front porch makes a grand entrance statement across the 127-foot-wide facade.

The standout feature is the 1,474-square-foot 5-car garage with breezeway, offering exceptional vehicle storage and a sheltered transition. A walkout basement with 1,835 square feet of unfinished space provides room for media rooms, guest suites, or recreation areas. This plan suits properties with acreage and buyers who entertain frequently.
