Luxury French Country Home Plan – 5,106 Sq Ft, 5 Bedrooms + Attached Apartment
Exterior Design & Style
This two-story French country residence combines steep roof lines, mixed masonry and refined detailing for a commanding curb presence. A generous multi-bay garage wing is positioned to preserve the home’s façade. A separate-but-attached apartment wing provides independent living while remaining part of the overall composition. Porches and modest patios create seamless outdoor living zones.
Interior Layout & Living Spaces
The plan centers on an open great room that flows into the kitchen and casual dining area, creating a large unified entertaining space. The kitchen includes a large island, walk-in pantry and an adjacent butler’s pantry for serving. A formal dining room and a private study are placed near the entry for flexibility. Service spaces — mudroom, laundry and storage — are all conveniently located near the garage entry to keep circulation efficient.
Bedrooms & Private Areas
The layout supports five primary bedrooms plus an attached apartment that functions as an additional suite. The master suite is secluded in its own wing and includes dual closets and a spa bath. Three additional main-house bedrooms each have generous closet space and easy access to baths. The apartment contains a bedroom, full bath, small kitchen and living area, making it ideal for in-laws, guests or rental use.
