One Level House Plan with 2 Bedrooms and Bonus Room Upstairs

Plan 23840R is a 2-bedroom 2-story house plan in the bungalow tradition, with European and traditional touches, offering 1283 ft² under a hip & valley roof with a 7/12 pitch. The L-shaped single-family home measures 46'8" wide and 47'4" deep and stands 22'0" high. Wood and stucco share the exterior walls, and a skylight brings daylight in from above. Daily life is centered on the main floor, while a bonus level upstairs leaves room for the house to grow with the family.

The entry leads into an open floor plan built around a large family room with a fireplace. That makes this a house plan with fireplace where the hearth sits right where everyone gathers, a warm anchor on long winter evenings. The kitchen is open to the living space, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. A breakfast nook beside a corner window gives the morning coffee its own bright spot, and a walk-in pantry keeps supplies off the counters and the kitchen uncluttered.

The bedrooms are clustered together, which keeps the private side of the house quiet and separate from the family room. With a main floor master, the primary bedroom needs no stairs, a practical choice now and in the years ahead. One full bathroom and one half bathroom serve the home, and the half bath spares guests a trip through the private hallway. A utility room and dedicated storage handle the everyday work of the household, and the bonus level upstairs can later become extra space when it is needed.

Outside, the front-entry 2-car garage extends forward of the main house and gives the L-shaped plan its sheltered front. A covered side porch offers a shaded place to sit in any weather, and a deck opens the home to the yard for outdoor meals and summer evenings. The house has no basement and stands on a concrete block foundation; it is also available with strip footings or a slab. The exterior walls are built of clay block, with aerated concrete or wood frame construction available on request.
