1-Story House Plan 972 ft²: 2 Beds, 1 Baths, Open Floor Plan, 1-Car Garage

Plan 16746R is a 2-bedroom single-story house plan of 972 ft² that blends Bungalow, European and Traditional styling. Its low, gentle roof combines a gable form with a double shed section at a 3/12 (14°) pitch, and the exterior walls are finished in smooth stucco. The house measures 34'0" wide and 39'0" deep, with a height of 15'8", which keeps the profile modest and grounded. It is a small house plan for a single family that wants every room to be used every day.

The front door opens into a defined entry, a buffer that keeps coats and shoes out of the main rooms. Beyond it the open floor plan joins the living areas and the kitchen into one continuous space. The large family room is the heart of the home, generous enough for a full sofa arrangement and a dining table. The kitchen faces this room across a breakfast bar, so morning coffee, homework and conversation with the cook all happen in the same place. On a winter evening the whole family stays within sight of one another.

Both bedrooms sit on the same level as the living spaces, so there are no stairs to climb at any stage of life. They share one full bathroom, a practical arrangement for a couple, a small family or guests. A separate utility room keeps the laundry and the household equipment away from the living area, and it helps the compact plan stay tidy and well organized.

Outside, a deck extends the living space for summer meals and quiet mornings in the open air. The one-car garage has a front entry, giving direct access from the street and room for storage. The house has no basement and stands on a bored pile foundation; it is also available with a slab, strip footings or a block foundation. The exterior walls are built of sand-lime silicate block, with aerated concrete, ceramic block or a wood frame available on request. With 972 ft², one level and a clear, open layout, this is a house plan with garage that is easy to build, heat and maintain year round.
