The Big Oaks
The Big Oaks is a brick house plan with front porch, offering 3,403 sq. ft., 4 bedrooms, and 3 1/2 baths. A strong fit for rear porch, study, and keeping room.
2-Story + 2-Car GarageHow I designed this plan.
The Big Oaks is the 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath southern brick home I designed for buyers who want traditional architecture with real substance behind it. At 3,403 square feet across two stories with a 2-car garage, this plan delivers the kind of home that anchors a neighborhood and ages beautifully over decades.
The main floor holds 2,413 square feet with a first-floor master suite, a study for focused work, and a keeping room for casual family time. Vaulted ceilings in the family room give that space the volume it deserves, and the open layout connects living, kitchen, and dining without feeling oversized.
Upstairs, 990 square feet holds three bedrooms, a loft that opens to the floor below, and a bonus room that adapts to whatever your family needs. Nine-foot ceilings throughout keep both floors feeling proportioned and comfortable. A front porch and rear porch give you covered outdoor space on both sides of the home.
At 74 feet 5 inches wide by 67 feet 8 inches deep, this plan needs a proper lot but rewards it with commanding curb appeal. The corner lot and flat lot design keeps site prep straightforward and construction costs predictable. This is southern living done right. The Big Oaks plan is available for $1,495. For more traditional and southern designs, see John’s Creek, Hunter’s Bend, Lake Burton Lodge, and Habersham Cottage.

Before you buy.
What is included in the The Big Oaks 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 The Big Oaks 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 The Big Oaks 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 The Big Oaks house plan?+
The The Big Oaks 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 The Big Oaks 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 The Big Oaks 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.
