This Acadian-style home strikes a lovely balance of curb appeal, functional layout, and future flexibility.
With ~2,459 sq ft on one level, it offers 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths plus 1 half bath, a 2-car attached garage, and an optional ~436 sq ft bonus room ready for whatever you need down the road.
Exterior Character & First Impressions
The Acadian style shines with a steep roof pitch, mixed siding textures, and welcoming porch spaces.
At ~63′-10″ wide by ~69′-2″ deep, it fits nicely on many suburban or semi-rural lots without overwhelming the view.
The front porch and subtle detail work give warming “Southern-country meets elegance” vibes. 0
Living Areas & Flow
- The great room is roomy and open, ideal for gathering—whether movie nights or laid-back family time.
- Kitchen placement is smart: visible from main living spaces but able to stay tidy thanks to sightline control.
- A mudroom/utility area gives you storage and household transition spaces—dropping off boots, backpacks, or muddy pups without chaos. 1
Bedroom Layout & Privacy
The master suite feels tucked away for privacy with a large closet and full bath. The three other bedrooms are grouped on the opposite side, sharing access to a full hall bath. It’s a split-bed layout without feeling disconnected. The half bath near common areas makes hosting easier. 2
Bonus Room—Room to Grow Later
Above part of the garage or elsewhere (depending on site), there’s an optional bonus room (~436 sq ft) that can become a home office, hobby space, teen retreat, or extra guest room. Plans like this make expansion feel built-in instead of tacked on. 3

Estimated U.S. Build Cost
Homes like this—one-level with quality space and optional bonus rooms—typically run around **$170–$245 per sq ft** in the U.S., depending on materials and local labor. That puts your construction estimate between **$418,000 – $602,000 USD** (excluding land and site work). If you finish the bonus room later, add accordingly.
Why This Plan Makes Sense
Because it hits the sweet spot: enough room for family and guests, private areas for quiet, generous storage and utility, and a bonus room you don’t *need now* but are glad to have later. The Acadian style gives warmth and character without needing fuss. A lovely possible long-term home.
