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 guests (4 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms)
  • Want a bonus room for a home office or media space (554-square-foot bonus room above garage)
  • Love covered outdoor entertaining with a fireplace (1,034 square feet of porches plus outdoor fireplace)
  • Need a 3-car garage for multiple vehicles or equipment (1,119-square-foot side-load garage)
  • Prefer a wide lot with a strong street presence (84 feet 4 inches wide)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Working with a narrow lot under 80 feet—this design needs 84 feet 4 inches of width
  • Want a compact footprint to minimize build costs (2,968 sf single-story with bonus room)
  • Prefer a simple, single-level layout without bonus rooms—this plan includes a second-story bonus room
  • Need a main-floor laundry hidden from living areas—the laundry is on the main floor and accessible from the master suite

About this plan

Spanning 2,968 square feet of heated living space, the Cedar Creek ranch house plan commands attention with an 84-foot 4-inch width and a 66-foot 2-inch depth. The exterior features a steep 9:12 roof pitch and an expansive 1,034 square feet of covered porch area, establishing a substantial profile on the lot. This design prioritizes a wide footprint that maximizes curb appeal while grounding the home in a classic, rustic aesthetic.

The interior architecture centers on an open-concept core, where 9-foot ceilings and vaulted volumes create a sense of vertical scale. A central great room anchored by a fireplace connects directly to the kitchen and breakfast area, facilitating movement through the main living quarters. The kitchen includes a large island, a dedicated eating bar, and a walk-in pantry, providing ample space for food preparation and storage.

A split-bedroom layout reserves one wing for the primary suite, which includes a private bath and direct access to the laundry room through the walk-in closet. The opposite wing houses three additional bedrooms, including a configuration with a Jack and Jill bathroom for shared access. The inclusion of four full bathrooms throughout the floor plan ensures utility for residents and guests alike.

The verticality of the home is further enhanced by a 554-square-foot bonus room located above the garage, featuring 8-foot ceilings and providing a flexible zone for a home office or media retreat. The structure is built on a slab or crawlspace foundation with 2x4 wall framing and stick roof framing, reaching a maximum building height of 33 feet 2 inches. This construction approach balances durability with the dramatic interior volumes required for modern living.

Convenience is integrated through a 1,119-square-foot, 3-car side-load garage that connects to the home via a mudroom, minimizing clutter at the main entries. The outdoor living experience is extended by a rear porch equipped with an outdoor fireplace, allowing for year-round utility of the terrace space. Key Features: 4 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, first-floor master suite, split-bedroom layout, bonus room, 3-car side-load garage, vaulted ceilings, outdoor fireplace, walk-in pantry, slab or crawlspace foundation.
