Plan Details

This 4-bed Louisiana (or Acadian-style) house plan has a brick exterior and great curb appeal. The front porch (296 square feet) has six square columns with two decorative dormers above with the front door centered taking you into the foyer.
French doors to your left open to your home office. Ahead, you enter the great room with a coffered ceiling, a fireplace and sliding doors that open to the rear porch. An open floor plan connects this space to the roomy kitchen with an island that seats four and a walk-in pantry. The dining room is steps away and has views to the back.
Take your entertaining outdoors and enjoy the covered outdoor living room (592 square feet) with a gas grill and a fireplace. This space connects to the rear porch (545 square feet). A convenient pool bath accessible from outside is a nice touch.
The master bedroom occupies the entire left side of the home and has an 11' coffered ceiling. The bathroom has a barrel ceiling, a spa bath, a 2-person shower and 2-person walk-in closet.
Across the home, Bedrooms 3 and 4 share a Jack and Jill bath. All three secondary bedrooms have walk-in closets.
A mudroom off the 3-car garage and a laundry room by the stairs to the bonus room complete the home.
