Plan 17461R is a 3-bedroom single-story house plan of 1484 ft², a modern single family home with a flat roof and a clean, minimalist character drawn from contemporary European architecture. Its L-shaped footprint measures 70'0" wide and 54'4" deep, with a height of 15'8", and the exterior walls pair stucco with wood, a calm and balanced contrast that suits the low, horizontal lines of the house. Everything is set on one level, with no stairs between the everyday rooms.
The front door opens into a proper entry, a place to leave coats and shoes before stepping into the main living area. From there the open floor plan joins the living room, the dining space and the kitchen into one continuous zone, so cooking, conversation and homework all happen within sight of each other. The kitchen comes with a breakfast nook for quick morning coffee and relaxed weekend meals. Floor-to-ceiling windows bring daylight deep into the rooms and keep the garden in view through every season, the clearest sign of this modern house plan's open, light-filled spirit.
The bedrooms are clustered in one wing of the L, which keeps the private rooms together and away from the busier living area. The master suite sits on the main floor, like the rest of the home, and features a walk-in closet with generous storage. Two more bedrooms complete the wing, and two full bathrooms serve the household, making this 3 bedroom 2 bath layout comfortable for a family or for hosting guests. A utility room keeps laundry, mechanical equipment and household supplies neatly out of sight.
The house stands on a slab foundation and has no basement; the plan is also available with a bored pile foundation, strip footings or a block foundation. The exterior walls are designed in calcium silicate block, and aerated concrete, ceramic block or frame construction can be chosen on request. Vehicles are covered by a detached two-car garage with front entry together with a carport, so the house plan with detached garage keeps parking separate from the living spaces. A covered side porch offers a sheltered spot to sit outdoors on a summer evening and completes this practical, refined flat roof house plan.
