Luxury Contemporary House Plan with 5 Bedrooms, Media Room & Two-Story Grand Room – 4,974 Sq Ft

This luxury contemporary house plan combines bold architectural simplicity with expansive modern living, creating a residence tailored for upscale family lifestyles, entertaining, and long-term functionality. Offering 4,974 square feet of heated living space and a total structure size of 5,791 square feet, the home balances dramatic interior volumes with refined contemporary detailing and highly adaptable living spaces.

The exterior composition reflects the defining principles of contemporary architecture through its streamlined massing, low-profile rooflines, and restrained visual ornamentation. Measuring 61 feet wide by 65 feet deep, the home presents a sophisticated modern presence while maintaining balanced residential proportions. The low 4:12 roof pitch reinforces the sleek horizontal character associated with contemporary design and contributes to the home’s clean, modern silhouette.

A covered front porch introduces the residence with understated elegance and creates a welcoming transition into the interior. At the rear, a spacious patio extends the home’s living environment outdoors, providing generous space for entertaining, dining, and relaxation. The inclusion of an outdoor fireplace elevates the exterior living experience, creating a warm and visually striking focal point that enhances year-round usability.

Inside, the floor plan is organized around expansive open-concept spaces designed to maximize natural light, connectivity, and spatial flow. Ten-foot ceilings on the first floor and nine-foot ceilings on the second floor establish an airy and refined atmosphere throughout the home. The dramatic two-story foyer and grand room introduce impressive vertical openness and create a strong architectural statement immediately upon entry.

The two-story grand room serves as the centerpiece of the residence, anchored by a fireplace that introduces warmth and visual focus to the expansive interior. Large open sightlines connect the grand room seamlessly to the kitchen, dining spaces, and outdoor living areas, supporting both comfortable daily living and large-scale entertaining.

The kitchen functions as a sophisticated gathering space that balances practicality with contemporary style. A large kitchen island provides generous preparation space and casual seating opportunities, while the nearby breakfast area supports informal dining and family interaction. A spacious walk-in pantry contributes exceptional storage and organizational efficiency, helping maintain the kitchen’s clean and streamlined appearance.

For more formal occasions, the dedicated dining room introduces an elegant entertaining space while preserving visual connection to the surrounding open living areas. This combination of structured dining and open-concept living reflects the refined balance central to contemporary residential design.

A dedicated home office or study adds valuable flexibility for remote work, business needs, or creative pursuits. Positioned separately from the main gathering spaces, the office supports productivity and privacy while contributing to the home’s adaptability.

The residence includes five bedrooms, four full bathrooms, and two powder rooms carefully arranged to maximize comfort and privacy. A main-level guest suite offers convenient accommodations for visitors or multigenerational living arrangements. The second-floor master suite is designed as a luxurious private retreat featuring spacious walk-in closets and a refined private bathroom with dual vanity sinks. Its upper-level placement enhances privacy while maintaining connection to the home’s shared family spaces.

Additional upper-level amenities include a spacious loft and a dedicated media room, both of which expand the home’s versatility and entertainment potential. These flexible spaces may serve as recreation areas, gaming lounges, home theaters, or casual gathering rooms depending on household needs.

Practical utility spaces are thoughtfully integrated throughout the design. A mud room helps organize daily household activity and storage, while the second-floor laundry room improves convenience by positioning laundry access near the primary bedroom areas.

The attached front-load three-car garage provides substantial parking and storage capacity while integrating cleanly into the home’s contemporary façade. Constructed on a crawl space foundation with durable 2x6 wall framing and truss roof framing, the residence emphasizes structural reliability, energy efficiency, and long-term durability.

This contemporary house plan successfully merges dramatic modern architecture with highly functional family living. Through its soaring interior spaces, refined outdoor amenities, luxurious private suites, and carefully integrated entertainment features, the home delivers a sophisticated and enduring residential experience designed for modern upscale lifestyles.

Review image
JoAnne and the entire staff was extremely helpful and patient with us while we decided between 2 homes. This home has outstanding curb appeal and a great layout perfect for us. I work from home so having the home office off the foyer is fantastic. I converted the wet bar into a storage closet for my office. We also extended the laundry room into the porch and created a multipurpose laundry/mud room. I would buy from archival designs again and again.

It took almost a year to pick a plan. Since my husband and I retired a few years ago we wanted this last house had to have everything we wanted and needed. The kitchen is my favorite part of the house. I can see what’s happening in my neighborhood through my kitchen window and watch my husband garden in the back yard. Our children think we made a smart decision when we picked this house for our senior years.

We’ve had an amazing experience with our new home and are excited to be moved in. The customer service we received during our modifications was exceptional. We are loving the open layout of the kitchen and family room. It feels spacious and I’m already planning on hosting holiday dinners at home. We recommend Archival Designs to anyone interested in building the home they’ve always wanted!

We absolutely adore the Kildare Place house plan. Made some modifications to make this home ours! Our house is the talk of the neighborhood. We host big parties every holiday and still get compliments from our friends and family. We searched for months and looked through hundreds of floor plans and this one had almost everything we wanted, and with the help of the great staff at Archival Designs we got exactly what we wanted!

FAQ

Can I modify this Luxury Contemporary House Plan with 5 Bedrooms, Media Room & Two-Story Grand Room – 4,974 Sq Ft now or later?

Absolutely. We offer in-house modification services to adjust layouts, room sizes, or expand garages before purchase. If you prefer to make adjustments during the construction phase, purchasing the CAD file package allows your local builder or architect to make on-site changes. Simply click 'Request a Modification' for a free quote.

How much will it cost to build this Luxury Contemporary House Plan with 5 Bedrooms, Media Room & Two-Story Grand Room – 4,974 Sq Ft and why aren't exact costs shown? 

Construction costs vary significantly ($150–$300+ per sq. ft.) based on your location, material choices, and local labor rates. Because site preparation and regional codes differ, it is hard to provide a universal cost always.

Will this Luxury Contemporary House Plan with 5 Bedrooms, Media Room & Two-Story Grand Room – 4,974 Sq Ft fit my lot, and can I add a basement or flip the layout?

You can check the 'Modifications' tab for width and depth requirements. To fit your site's orientation, most plans are available in a 'Right Reading Reverse' (mirrored) format. We also offer slab, crawlspace, and basement foundation adjustments for every design.

Do your plans meet building codes in my area and do I need a professional stamp?

Our plans meet or exceed national IRC (International Residential Code) standards. However, due to varying local requirements regarding seismic, wind (hurricane), or snow loads, house plans do not come with a professional architect’s or engineer’s seal. Most municipalities require a review and stamp by a local licensed professional to obtain a building permit.

Are plumbing, HVAC, and mechanical drawings included?

We provide the architectural and schematic electrical framework, but HVAC and plumbing layouts are not included. Because local codes and climate-specific systems vary significantly across the country, these are best finalized by your local subcontractors to ensure your home’s systems are optimized for your specific site and energy requirements.

Why should I choose Archival Designs and are the plans guaranteed?

With over 40 years of experience, Archival Designs provides high-quality, builder-ready designs that balance aesthetic elegance with structural integrity. We offer a Best Price Guarantee, a 10% discount for military and first responders, as well as builder discounts for life. And loyalty perks for pro builders. All plans are designed to comply with the IRC codes at the time of their creation. Learn more about our Best Price Guarantee.
