Forever Farmhouse
Forever Farmhouse is a farmhouse plan with walkout basement, offering 3,144 sq. ft., 4 bedrooms, and 3 1/2 baths. A strong fit for wraparound porch, patio, and screened porch.
3-StoryHow I designed this plan.
I designed the Forever Farmhouse as a 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath modern farmhouse that delivers 3,144 square feet across three stories with a wraparound porch and an optional walkout basement. This is the farmhouse plan for families who want room for everyone, porches on every side, and a layout that works on sloping lake lots as naturally as it does on flat land.
The main level holds 1,868 square feet with the master suite on the main floor and an open living floor plan that connects kitchen, dining, and family room naturally. A mudroom and laundry keep the everyday mess contained. Upstairs, 1,276 square feet adds three more bedrooms and a den that can flex into a home office or media room.
The optional lower level at 1,851 square feet opens up a recreation room, shop, and additional living. No garage means more porch and living space in the footprint. That wraparound porch is the signature of this home, stretching across the front and wrapping around for covered outdoor living that defines the whole design. A patio, screened porch, deck, and stoop add even more outdoor options.
At 55 feet 2 inches wide by 59 feet 8 inches deep on a sloping or lake lot, this farmhouse takes full advantage of terrain changes. Build the basement or skip it, the plan works either way. The Forever Farmhouse plan is available for $1,495. Similar farmhouse plans include Carolina Farmhouse, Low Country Farmhouse, Modern Farmhouse, and Madison Farmhouse.

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