Plan 15490R is a 3-bedroom single-story house plan in the Bungalow tradition, with European and traditional touches, offering 1163 ft² of living space beneath a hip and valley roof set at a 7/12 (30°) pitch. Brick and stone/brick veneer wrap the exterior walls, giving this single family home a solid, timeless face toward the street. The house measures 46'7" wide and 42'0" deep, with a height of 21'2", all on one level with no stairs to climb.
A proper entry greets you at the front door and keeps the rest of the home sheltered from the comings and goings of the day. This is a closed floor plan, so each room keeps its own character and its own quiet. The family room is the heart of the house, anchored by a fireplace that makes it the natural gathering place on cold evenings. The large kitchen gives the cook generous room to work, and a breakfast nook beside it is ready for unhurried mornings and quick weeknight suppers alike.
The split bedroom floor plan places the master bedroom apart from the two secondary bedrooms, a layout that gives parents privacy and lets children or guests settle in on their own side of the home. One full bathroom serves the household. Everyday chores stay simple, with laundry on the main floor and a separate utility room for the equipment and storage a family needs, all within easy reach of the living areas.
Outside, a covered rear porch extends the home toward the backyard, a sheltered spot for morning coffee or a summer evening outdoors, while floor-to-ceiling windows bring generous daylight inside. This house plan with an attached garage includes a front-entry bay for one car, so the drive and the door stay neatly organized at the front. There is no basement; the house stands on a bored pile foundation and is also available with a slab, strip footings or a block foundation. The exterior walls are built of sand-lime block, with aerated concrete, ceramic block or wood frame construction available on request. For a family that wants a compact, practical bungalow house plan with a fireplace and a brick exterior, this design brings together comfort and classic proportions.
