Plan 18859R is a 3-bedroom, three-story house plan of 1584 ft² that blends European and Traditional styling with a modern shed roof set at a gentle 2/12 (9.5°) pitch. Stone/brick veneer and stucco cover the exterior walls, giving this single-family home a solid, finished presence from the street. The house measures 51'7" wide and 30'2" deep, with a height of 25'7". Stacking the rooms over three levels keeps the footprint compact and separates everyday living from the private spaces above.
You enter through a defined entry, which keeps coats and shoes out of the main rooms. Beyond it, an open floor plan joins a large family room with the kitchen, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. The kitchen has a breakfast nook, a relaxed spot for morning coffee or homework that leaves the main table free. A dedicated home office gives remote work and household paperwork a room of its own, with a door that closes on the noise of the family room. On winter evenings, the connected layout lets everyone gather in one warm, shared space.
The bedrooms are clustered together, with the master suite on the second floor, which suits families who want children close by at night. The master bedroom includes a walk-in closet, and two full bathrooms serve the household. Laundry on the main floor is handled in the utility room, so baskets don't travel up and down the stairs and the washer stays away from the bedrooms.
The house stands on a bored pile foundation and is built with silicate block exterior walls. It is also available with a slab, strip or block foundation, and with aerated concrete, ceramic block or timber frame walls on request. The plan has no basement. A 2-car attached garage with front entry gives sheltered access straight from the driveway. At the back, a covered rear porch and a deck carry family life outdoors, from quiet summer mornings to dinners outside, making this a well-balanced choice for anyone looking for a European house plan with an attached garage.
