Single Story House Plan with Open Floor Plan and 2-Car Garage

Plan 18205R is a 3-bedroom single-story house plan that blends Bungalow, European and Traditional character in a T-shaped layout of 1575 ft², sheltered by a hip and valley roof with an 8/12 pitch. Stone/brick veneer and stucco dress the exterior, while the main walls are built of aerated concrete, with ceramic block or wood framing also available on request. The house measures 51'3" wide and 56'2" deep, with a height of 21'0", a generous footprint for a one-level home with 2 full bathrooms, a half bath and an attached 2-car garage.

A proper entry receives guests and keeps coats and shoes away from the main rooms, then opens into an open floor plan where the large family room, the kitchen and the dining area share one continuous space. The fireplace in the family room anchors the whole interior, and large windows together with floor-to-ceiling glass draw daylight deep into the house. On a winter evening the glow of the fire reaches the kitchen island. The large kitchen is made for real cooking and gathering: the island gives a wide work surface and a place to sit, the walk-in pantry keeps supplies out of sight, and the breakfast nook with its corner window makes an easy spot for the first coffee of the day.

The three bedrooms are clustered together, which keeps the sleeping quarters calm and close for a family with young children. The master suite is on the main floor, like every room in this house, and comes with a walk-in closet, so the owners never need to climb stairs. Two full bathrooms serve the bedrooms, while the half bath stays convenient for guests near the living spaces. A separate utility room handles laundry and household equipment and keeps that work away from the kitchen and family room.

Outside, the house rests on strip footings and is also available with a slab foundation; it has no basement. The front-entry garage extends forward from the main body of the house, giving a two-car space with a protected approach to the door. At the back, a covered rear porch opens onto a deck, a sheltered place for summer meals and quiet mornings outdoors, and the corner windows link the rooms inside with that view of the yard.
