House Plan with Covered Porch and Indoor-Outdoor Fireplace

Plan 20457R is a 3-bedroom 2-story house plan of 1817 ft² that brings together European, Mountain, Lake and Traditional character under a steep gable roof with a 10/12 (40°) pitch. The facade combines wood, stucco and natural stone, the ridge runs parallel to the street, and a skylight adds daylight from above. This single-family home measures 55'0" wide and 38'3" deep, rises 25'5" high, and offers three full bathrooms and a front-entry 2-car garage.

A proper entry leads into an open floor plan where the main living spaces flow into one another. The large family room is the heart of the house, with a fireplace that turns winter evenings into time spent together, and the home also features a two-sided fireplace. Large windows and floor-to-ceiling windows open the rooms to the views around the house. The kitchen is planned for real daily use: a breakfast bar for quick meals and conversation, a breakfast nook brightened by a corner window, and a walk-in pantry that keeps supplies organized and counters clear.

The bedrooms are clustered, so the private part of the home stays quiet and close together. The master suite sits on the second floor and includes a walk-in closet, while three full bathrooms mean no one waits in the morning. An in-law suite gives parents or long-staying guests a comfortable place of their own. A utility room handles laundry and household equipment, and the garage with space upstairs adds room that can grow with the family's needs.

Outside, life moves to the covered rear porch and the deck, and an outdoor fireplace extends cool evenings well into the season. A balcony on the upper level adds a private spot for morning coffee. This mountain house plan has no basement: it stands on strip footings and is also available with a slab foundation. The exterior walls are built of aerated concrete blocks, with ceramic block or wood framing available as options on request.
