This timber frame plan offers 1,730 sq ft of living space across two levels, with four bedrooms and two baths. The footprint is 43'-4" x 24'-3", set on a regular structural grid. The covered carport at the front is not counted in the living area, and there is no basement.
On the ground floor, a 21'-2" x 3'-1" hall links the stair, study, utility and shower room to the open kitchen and dining area, which measure 9'-1" x 10'-11" and 8'-8" x 10'-11". The living room with stove, at 19'-10" x 10'-11", sits at the end of that run. Upstairs, a 32'-7" x 3'-1" landing hall serves all four bedrooms and the bathroom, so no bedroom opens through another.
Layout highlights
- Living room with stove measures 19'-10" x 10'-11", the longest room on the plan.
- Kitchen (9'-1" x 10'-11") and dining (8'-8" x 10'-11") sit side by side in one open zone.
- Ground-floor study (12'-5" x 6'-8") and 7'-8" x 5'-2" shower room suit guests or home working.
- Four bedrooms upstairs, from 8'-4" x 14'-5" up to 12'-9" x 10'-11", off one landing hall.
- Upstairs bathroom is 8'-0" x 6'-8"; a 7'-8" x 5'-5" utility room sits below.

Who this plan suits
This plan suits families who want four bedrooms in a compact, grid-based timber frame with a stove-heated living room. It needs a lot at least wide enough for the 43'-4" x 24'-3" footprint plus access to the front carport.
How this plan was made
It was generated in AI Architectures Plan Studio from this one-line brief: “Two-story timber frame house, 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, timber frame house on a regular grid, ground floor hall, open kitchen and dining, living with stove, study, shower room, utility; upstairs 4 bedrooms and a bath, covered carport for 1 car at the front, about 160 m² (1,722 sq ft) of living space (garage not included). Metric European / Latin American layout: compact rooms, no basement.” An AI architect drafted the room program, a layout solver placed every wall and door, and the plan was checked automatically for room sizes, circulation and daylight. The same project produced the PDF sheets, layered DXF, IFC model and 3D model you can download above.
Frequently asked questions
What are timber frame house plans?
Timber frame house plans describe a home whose structure is a skeleton of posts and beams, usually laid out on a regular grid. This plan follows that approach, which keeps room widths consistent from the ground floor to the upper floor.
What affects the cost of building this plan?
Main drivers are the 1,730 sq ft of living space, the two-story form, the timber frame and the covered carport. Local labor, foundation conditions on your lot and finishes will change the total, so get local quotes. The plan has no basement, which avoids excavation costs.
Can I change this plan by chat?
Yes. You can describe changes in chat, such as resizing or moving rooms, switching the carport to the other side of the house or adapting the plan to a narrower lot. The layout is then regenerated with updated room sizes.
How do I use the PDF, DXF and IFC files?
The PDF is for reviewing and sharing the drawings with builders or permit offices. The DXF opens in CAD software for editing plans and sections, and the IFC imports into BIM tools for coordination with structural and MEP work.
