Our Favorite Floor Plans for Families

Jun 12, 2023


Whether you're preparing for a new baby, managing a lively brood of kids, or cherishing multigenerational living with grandparents, finding the perfect home can feel like quite a challenge. But no matter how small or big your tribe is, Overstreet Builders has a floor plan that's just right for your family!

It's all about finding a balance — the right number of bedrooms, that perfect kitchen for family dinners, and let's not forget space for the kids to romp around.

In this blog, we'll take you on a tour through some of our favorite floor plans for families. These designs emphasize comfort, functionality, and that warm, fuzzy feeling we call "home."

The Americana

First on our tour is the grand and spacious Americana. This two-story stunner boasts 4 oversized bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathrooms — perfect for those hectic school mornings.

The Americana's pièce de résistance, though, has to be the kitchen. With a walk-in pantry and an oversized dinette, it's the heart of the home where memories are cooked up over family meals.

A private study provides an oasis of calm for work-from-home parents or studious kiddos. Plus, with an option to expand the master bedroom or upgrade the study to an in-law suite, the Americana offers a canvas for your family's future growth.

Key features of The Americana:

  • 4 Bedrooms
  • 4.5 Bathrooms
  • 4,001 square feet
  • 3 Car Garage
  • 2 Stories

The Arlington

Next, let's step into The Arlington. This one-level rancher melds sophistication with functionality.
Imagine waking up in the master suite with its tray ceiling and luxurious bath, complete with a corner tub and separate shower. Talk about relaxation! Well, until the kids come barging in for breakfast…

The vaulted great room with a fireplace is perfect for those family movie nights, while the gourmet kitchen with an island work area is just waiting for your next weekend baking project.
Did we mention the handy mudroom with storage lockers? Say goodbye to tripping over shoes and school bags in the hallway!

Key features of The Arlington:

  • 4 Bedrooms
  • 3 Full Bathrooms
  • 2,908 square feet
  • 3 Car Garage
  • Single Story

The Berkshire

For those who crave a mix of grandeur and coziness, The Berkshire is a fantastic pick. The first floor is home to a master bedroom suite that feels like a luxurious retreat, featuring a double bowl vanity and a separate soaking tub.

But the Berkshire really shines with its open kitchen, complete with a large island and walk-in pantry (no more struggling with limited storage space for groceries).

Upstairs, the bedrooms share a Jack-N-Jill bathroom to help with sibling harmony. Plus, with the option to add a 4th bedroom and a 3rd bathroom, The Berkshire is a home that grows with your family.

Key features of The Berkshire include:

  • 3-4 Bedrooms
  • 2.5 Bathrooms
  • 2,659 square feet
  • 2 Car Garage

The Birmingham

Last, but certainly not least, is The Birmingham. This 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom plan feels like a breath of fresh air. The 2-story family room and foyer, complete with an angled staircase, promises to be the backdrop of many lovely family photos over the years.

The large kitchen, the expanded master suite, and the luxurious bath invite relaxation after a long day at work or school.

Want more room to roam? Options like a sunroom, expanded dinette, master sitting room, and a 4-car tandem garage await your customization. These details are what makes us a luxury home builder.

Key features of The Birmingham:

  • 4 Bedrooms
  • 3.5 Bathroom
