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 and need four full bathrooms on the main floor (4 bedrooms, 4 baths, all single-story)
  • Want a bonus room for a home office or media space without building a second story (554 sq ft bonus with 8-foot ceilings)
  • Entertain frequently and love outdoor living with fireplaces and extensive porch space (outdoor fireplace, 1,034 sq ft covered porches)
  • Working with a larger lot and want a wide, impressive curb presence (84 ft 4 in width and 66 ft 2 in depth)
  • Prefer a single-story layout with no stairs—all bedrooms and living on one level (one-story ranch)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Have a narrow lot under 70 feet—this design requires 84+ feet of width and substantial depth
  • Want to minimize build costs—the expansive 2,968 sq ft footprint plus bonus room adds significant construction expense
  • Need a compact floor plan—this ranch spans 84 ft 4 in wide and includes 1,034 sq ft of covered porches
  • Prefer a simple, straightforward layout—the split-bedroom configuration and Jack-and-Jill bath add complexity
  • Require a two-car garage—this plan includes three bays and a 1,119 sq ft structure

About this plan

Rustic Ranch with Bonus Room and Extensive Outdoor Living

This Rustic ranch spans 2,968 square feet of heated space across a commanding 84-foot 4-inch width and 66-foot 2-inch depth. The steep 9:12 roof pitch and 1,034 square feet of covered porch area establish strong curb appeal on generous lots. A 554-square-foot bonus room above the garage provides flexible space for a home office or media room.

The open-concept interior features 9-foot ceilings and vaulted volumes throughout, anchored by a great room with fireplace. The kitchen includes a large island, eating bar, and walk-in pantry; four full bathrooms serve four bedrooms efficiently. A split-bedroom layout separates the primary suite (with laundry access through the walk-in closet) from three secondary bedrooms, one configured with a Jack and Jill bathroom.

The 1,119-square-foot three-car side-load garage connects via a mudroom to minimize clutter. An outdoor fireplace on the rear porch extends year-round entertaining capability. Vaulted ceilings, ample storage, and attic space round out a design built on slab or crawlspace foundation.

  • Four full bathrooms for a household of four or more
  • Bonus room (554 sq ft, 8-foot ceilings) above the garage for office or media retreat
  • Outdoor fireplace and 1,034 sq ft of covered porches for extended entertaining
  • Walk-in pantry, large island, and eating bar in chef-friendly kitchen
  • Split-bedroom layout with primary suite on one wing, three additional bedrooms opposite
