How I designed this plan.

I designed the Chattahoochee River as a country cottage house plan that gives a growing family real room to spread out. With 4 bedrooms, 3 baths, and 2,514 square feet across two stories, this plan has the space and the character to be the house your kids remember growing up in.

The main floor covers 1,586 square feet with an open floor plan that flows from the kitchen through the dining area and into a generous living space. The first-floor master suite sits privately on the main level with a walk-in closet that actually holds everything. Upstairs, 928 square feet gives you three more bedrooms and two full baths – enough room that nobody is fighting over space.

A front porch runs the width of the facade and a covered rear porch extends your living space into the backyard. The footprint is 57-foot-10-inch by 49-foot-6-inch with a 2-car garage – a great fit for corner lots and standard suburban parcels. The rustic cottage style keeps the curb appeal high and the framing conventional. Plans are $1,495.

Common Questions

Before you buy.

What is included in the Chattahoochee River house plan set?+

Each plan set includes dimensioned floor plans for all levels, front, side, and rear elevations at 1/4" scale with notes and dimensions, foundation plan (basement standard; slab and crawlspace available for an additional fee), and roof plan. Available as a PDF plan set ($1,495) or editable CAD files ($1,950). Electrical plans are not included because they are customer-specific and finalized on site with your builder and electrician after framing.

Can the Chattahoochee River plan be modified?+

Yes. Modifications are one of the most common services we provide. Our in-house design team handles all modifications directly. Common changes include adjusting bedroom count, resizing rooms, changing exterior materials, or adapting for a specific lot. Typical turnaround is 2 to 4 weeks. Contact Max Fulbright Designs at (770) 301-4214 or [email protected] for a free consultation and quote.

Does the Chattahoochee River plan require a structural engineer's stamp?+

Stock plans do not include a professional engineer's stamp. Many US jurisdictions require a licensed engineer in your state to review and stamp the plans before permit submission. Check with your local building department before purchasing. This is a standard industry practice and is not unique to Max Fulbright Designs.

Who designed the Chattahoochee River house plan?+

The Chattahoochee River house plan was drawn personally by Max Fulbright Sr., the founder of Max Fulbright Designs. Max is a Georgia Institute of Technology-trained engineer who has designed and personally built more than 500 custom homes since founding the firm in 1990. Every plan in the Max Fulbright Designs catalog is drawn by Max himself.

Can I build the Chattahoochee River house plan in any US state?+

Yes. Max Fulbright Designs has delivered more than 12,000 plans to homeowners and builders in all 50 US states and Canada. The Chattahoochee River plan is drawn to general residential construction standards that work in most US jurisdictions, though local building codes vary and should be reviewed with your builder before construction.
