3 Bedroom Collection
Three bedroom house plans remain the most sought-after configuration for modern families, combining practical living spaces with versatile room arrangements. These thoughtfully designed homes typically range from 1,200 to 2,500 square feet, offering an ideal balance of personal space and togetherness.
The classic three bedroom layout emerged in the post-war era as the standard for suburban family homes, evolving from the smaller two-bedroom cottages of earlier decades. Today's designs reflect both this heritage and contemporary lifestyles, with open-concept living areas that flow seamlessly between kitchen, dining, and family spaces.
Most three bedroom floor plans feature a primary suite separated from two secondary bedrooms, creating distinct private zones within the home. Common configurations include split bedroom designs, where the primary suite occupies one wing while the additional bedrooms share another. This arrangement naturally buffers noise and provides privacy for parents and children alike.
Modern three bedroom homes often incorporate flexible spaces that adapt to changing needs - home offices that convert to guest rooms, loft areas for children's play, or bonus rooms above garages. Essential elements typically include two full bathrooms (or 2.5 with a powder room), generous closet storage, and a laundry room positioned near bedrooms for convenience.
Today's designs emphasize indoor-outdoor connections with covered patios, breakfast nooks with garden views, and multiple points of access to outdoor living spaces. Energy-efficient features like well-placed windows for natural light, smart storage solutions, and open sight lines help these homes feel spacious despite modest square footage.
These versatile floor plans suit various life stages - from young families needing separate rooms for children to empty nesters wanting space for a home office and guest accommodations. The enduring appeal of three bedroom homes lies in their adaptability, offering enough room for family life while remaining manageable in terms of maintenance and costs.

Exterior Wall Construction Choices
Most of our stock plans come as 2x4 exterior wall construction by default. We do provide options to change the exterior wall type. Those options include 2x6 exterior walls, Post Frame Construction, CMU Block Construction, etc.
Foundation Types
When de signing our house plans, a default foundation is set for a given plan. If possible, we include options to change the foundation type to better match your construction needs. For instance, if the default foundation is an unfinished basement, you'll have the option to change the foundation type to a walkout foundation, crawlspace, or slab foundation.
Please note: Some of our plans are designed with special foundation needs, such as post and pier for waterfront properties. These plans may not allow an option to choose another foundation type. If you find yourself in need of an alternate foundation and aren't given the choice, please fill out the alteration request on the plan page.
Right Reading Reverse
One of our more popular options is reversing the plan. Ordering the reverse option will not only flip the plan on the sets for you, it will also correct the text to make the plan read correctly while reversed.
CAD Files
All of our plans are offered as digital PDF downloads. If you want to make changes to the plan yourself, there is an add-on option that will give you the CAD files. Our CAD files are exported in AutoCAD format. You must have software capable of opening CAD files to use them. This option is great if you are in the business of home building and need to make slight changes to the plans per lot.
