If you’ve been hunting for a big, beautiful one-level home that feels equal parts “weekend retreat” and “forever home,” this country-style design checks a lot of boxes without trying too hard.

With 5,098 square feet of heated living space, four bedrooms, and 4.5 bathrooms, it’s built for real life at full volume—family visits, overnight guests, busy mornings, and quiet evenings when you finally get the house to yourself.

What makes it especially livable is the smart mix of open gathering areas and private wings.

You get the flow everyone wants today, plus the separation you’ll appreciate when someone’s on a conference call, someone’s napping, and someone else is “practicing” music. (Yes, all at the same time.)

Exterior and Curb Appeal

This plan leans into a classic country-craftsman vibe with a wide, grounded footprint and a roofline that feels substantial. The home spans about 117′ 9″ wide and 81′ 10″ deep, with an overall height around 30 feet—so it has that estate-style presence without requiring a second story to pull it off.

The garage is a standout feature here: a 2-car courtyard-entry setup. That courtyard approach does two important things. First, it keeps the front of the home looking polished instead of “garage-first.” Second, it creates a natural arrival zone—perfect for guests, for daily drop-offs, and for keeping the driveway feel a little more private and intentional.

Porches and Outdoor Living

Outdoor living is part of the everyday experience with both a front porch and a rear porch. The front porch sets a welcoming tone (and gives you that “sit and wave” option if you’re feeling neighborly). The rear porch is where the home really earns its keep—ideal for grilling, relaxing, and stretching your living space into the backyard when the weather behaves.

Main Living Area and Flow

This is a one-story design with a layout that supports easy movement from space to space—especially helpful in a home this size. The plan includes an open floor concept, which typically means your main gathering zones are connected and comfortable: a central living area that flows into the kitchen and casual dining, so nobody feels stuck in a separate room while everyone else is having fun.

The kitchen includes a true island—your daily headquarters for snacks, meal prep, homework, and the classic “I’m just going to stand here and talk while you cook.” Nearby, a breakfast nook adds a casual spot that feels lighter and more relaxed than formal dining. It’s the kind of space that ends up being used constantly because it’s convenient, sunny, and doesn’t require “company-ready” table settings.

Work-From-Home Ready: Office Space That Makes Sense

A dedicated office is included in the plan, which is a big deal in a home designed for long-term living. Whether you work remotely full time, run a business on the side, or just need a quiet place to organize life, this gives you a true work zone away from the main activity areas.

It’s also a great “flex” space if you don’t need a traditional office—think homework room, craft studio, library, or even a quiet den for reading and resetting.

Split Bedrooms for Privacy

One of the most family-friendly features here is the split-bedroom layout. Instead of stacking all bedrooms in one hallway, the plan separates sleeping areas into different zones. That means the primary suite can feel like a private retreat, while secondary bedrooms can function as kid rooms, guest rooms, or multi-generational spaces—without everyone living on top of each other.

The primary bedroom is on the main floor (and in a one-story home, that means everything is on the main floor—no stairs, no hauling laundry up and down). The plan also includes a sitting room, which pairs beautifully with a private suite. Use it as a morning coffee corner, a quiet reading lounge, or a “do not disturb” space when the rest of the house is buzzing.

Bedroom and Bath Setup

With four bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, this layout is generous in the way that makes daily life smoother. A guest room is included—perfect for visitors, a live-in relative, or even a second home office if you really want to spread out.

Two of the secondary bedrooms are connected by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, which is a practical win: each bedroom gets direct bathroom access without needing separate full baths for both. Then, with additional bathrooms throughout the home plus a half bath, the traffic flow stays comfortable even when the house is full.

Laundry and Utility Convenience

The laundry room is located on the main floor—right where you want it in a one-level plan of this size. It keeps the everyday routines efficient, and it supports the kind of “do a little laundry often” life that usually works better than the “laundry mountain” strategy (no judgment, but we both know how that ends).

Bonus Room Expansion

Above the garage, there’s a bonus room adding 496 square feet of extra flexible space. This is one of those features that makes a home feel future-proof. Use it now as a game room, teen hangout, home gym, hobby studio, or media space. Later, it can evolve into whatever you need most—without changing the main living areas.

And because it sits over the garage, it naturally separates the bonus space from the quieter bedroom wings, which is perfect if you want loud fun in one zone and peaceful rest in another.

Lifestyle Benefits

This is the kind of home that works beautifully for entertaining and everyday comfort. The open main living concept keeps everyone connected, while the split-bedroom layout protects privacy. The guest room and extra bathrooms make hosting easier, and the courtyard-entry garage adds a more refined, custom feel from the moment you pull in.

It’s also a strong option for multi-generational living, thanks to the one-level layout, multiple bathrooms, and flexible bonus space that can be tailored to changing needs over time.

Estimated U.S. Build Cost

For a home of this size with a detailed roofline and an upscale footprint, a reasonable U.S. build-cost range is often around $220 to $380 per square foot, depending on your region, finishes, labor market, and site conditions.

That places an estimated build cost for the heated living area (5,098 sq ft) at approximately $1,122,000 to $1,937,000 USD. This estimate typically excludes land, permitting, utility connections, major site work, and high-end upgrades.
