This plan offers around 2,742 sq ft of living space, with 4 bedrooms (or 5, if you convert the bonus room), 3.5 full baths, plus a full bath in the bonus room—over an attached side-entry 2-car garage. It’s designed to balance spacious comfort with architectural charm. 0
Exterior & First Impression
A large front porch welcomes you in, setting a warm, approachable tone. Clean modern farmhouse siding lines, mixed with strong roof pitches, deliver both curb appeal and practical rain shedding. The side-entry garage keeps the front facade clean and elegant. 1
Main Gathering Spaces
Step inside from the porch into an open floor plan: great room, dining area, and kitchen all flow together with ample sight lines. The great room has high 12′ ceilings (with an optional vaulted ceiling upgrade) and a fireplace flanked by built-ins. Doors open from living into a rear porch for outdoor living. 2
Kitchen & Storage Features
The kitchen is well-equipped: a large island ideal for seating, a separate cooktop and oven setup, and a large walk-in pantry. You’ll find lots of counter space and storage throughout. 3
Bedrooms & Private Spaces
- Master Suite: On the main level with a large walk-in closet, double-sink vanity, soaking tub, custom tiled shower, linen storage, and a private toilet compartment. 4
- Guest/Children’s Bedrooms: Three additional bedrooms on the main level, each with large closets, served by two bathrooms. 5
Bonus Room Flexibility
Above the garage sits a ~433 sq ft bonus room with its own full bathroom—perfect as a guest suite, playroom, hobby room, or that extra office you keep needing. If desired, this option can serve as a 5th bedroom. 6

Estimated U.S. Build Cost (USD)
For a home like this—with modern farmhouse features, a bonus room, open living spaces, and fairly upscale details—you can expect construction costs in the U.S. in the range of $180–$260 per sq ft.
That yields a rough cost estimate of **$495,000–$715,000 USD**, depending heavily on location, material choices, land/site costs, and how upscale or modest the finishes are. Land, site prep, foundation extras, and permit/engineering fees not included.

It suits families who value both gathering and retreat—especially where future needs may call for extra space without rebuilding.
