The Rachel house plan spans 5,492 square feet of heated living area, presenting a substantial 98-foot width that necessitates a spacious lot for optimal placement. This New American design incorporates a 2-story great room that anchors the central living core, providing vertical volume and light penetration across the main floor. The structure occupies a footprint of 3,436 square feet on the first level and 2,056 square feet on the second level, resulting in a total building height of 35 ft 7 in.
The first floor prioritizes an open-concept layout centered around the 10-foot ceilings, which establish a sense of scale in the primary living zones. A dedicated kitchen area connects directly to the great room, while the 1,138 square feet of total porch area provides exterior transitions. The design features 4 bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms, including a primary suite on the main level to ensure separation from secondary sleeping quarters located on the upper floor.
The second floor includes a flexible bonus room equipped with an additional full bathroom, totaling 2,056 square feet of dedicated space for a media center, home office, or guest suite. With 9-foot ceilings throughout the second level, the rooms maintain a consistent atmosphere. The integration of 11:12 and 14:12 roof pitches gives the exterior a complex, high-profile aesthetic, supported by a 35 ft 7 in maximum building height.
A 740 square foot, 2-car garage is integrated into the structural footprint, providing direct utility while maintaining the exterior geometry of the residence. The home is designed with an 86-foot depth, requiring careful site planning for optimal driveway access and garage orientation. The structural framing supports a 4.5 bathroom configuration, ensuring that all private and guest areas are serviced by dedicated plumbing facilities.
