3-Story + 2-Car GarageHow I designed this plan.
The Carolina Farmhouse is a 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath farmhouse that wraps 2,589 square feet in a wraparound porch across three stories with a 2-car garage. I designed this plan for sloping lots where you want classic farmhouse living on the main floor and a full walkout level below for recreation, guests, and storage. The main floor holds 1,927 square feet with ten-foot ceilings that give the rooms a generous, gracious feel.
The master bedroom sits on the main level for convenience, and the open living layout connects kitchen, dining, and living naturally. A mudroom, office, foyer, and pantry add the kind of everyday functionality that makes a house actually work. Upstairs, 662 square feet adds bedrooms and a bonus room. The optional lower level at 1,927 square feet opens up a recreation room, bunk room, and storage with nine-foot ceilings and full walkout access.
That wraparound porch is the heart of this design, wrapping across the front and side with a screened porch and deck off the back. At 68 feet 10 inches wide by 67 feet 10 inches deep, this farmhouse has the footprint to live large on a sloping lot. The finished or unfinished basement option gives you flexibility to build what you need now and expand later. This is southern farmhouse living with a walkout twist.
The Carolina Farmhouse plan is available for $1,495. Browse more farmhouse plans like Low Country Farmhouse, Forever Farmhouse, Madison Farmhouse, and Modern Farmhouse.

Before you buy.
What is included in the Carolina Farmhouse 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 Carolina Farmhouse 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 Carolina Farmhouse 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 Carolina Farmhouse house plan?+
The Carolina Farmhouse 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 Carolina Farmhouse 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 Carolina Farmhouse 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.
