Hunter's Bend
Hunter's Bend is a lake house plan with walkout basement, offering 4,600, 4 bedrooms, and 4 1/2 baths. A strong fit for front porch, rear porch, and deck.
2-Story + 2-Car GarageHow I designed this plan.
When someone asks me for a lake house plan that does not compromise, I point them to Hunter’s Bend. This 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath home delivers 4,600 square feet of traditional brick architecture across two stories, and every room has a purpose. If you have a sloping lot and big plans for entertaining, this is your floor plan.
The main level gives you 2,300 square feet with a first-floor master suite under cathedral ceilings, a keeping room for casual family time, and an open layout that connects kitchen to living spaces without feeling cavernous. Downstairs mirrors that footprint with a guest room, rec room, bar area, office, and a shop and storage space that builders like me appreciate.
Cathedral ceilings carry through the master and keeping room, giving those spaces the volume they deserve without wasting energy heating unused attic space. Outside you get a front porch, rear porch, deck, and patio, so there is always a spot to sit no matter where the sun is.
The 2-car garage tucks neatly into the 67-foot-10-inch by 61-foot footprint, and the sloping lot design means your lower level gets full daylight and walkout access. This is a home built for decades of lake living. The Hunter’s Bend plan is available for $1,495. For similar scale and style, explore Baker Lake Cottage, Asheville Mountain, Banning Mills Lodge, and Camp Stone.

Building a home is one of life's biggest moments.
A house plan should come with access to the designer behind it.
When you buy the Hunter's Bend, you get direct access to the Fulbrights — the same family that drew this plan. Before, during, and after your build. No support tickets, no routing through an aggregator, no "the designer isn't available." One phone number. One family.
"We've been doing this for 35 years. Every plan we sell is one I'd build for my own family. When you call, you get me — not a call center."Max Fulbright Sr. Lead Designer + Builder · West Georgia
Before you buy.
What is included in the Hunter's Bend 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 Hunter's Bend 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 Hunter's Bend 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 Hunter's Bend house plan?+
The Hunter's Bend 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 Hunter's Bend 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 Hunter's Bend 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.
