Plan 24580R is a 2-bedroom two-story house plan of 1058 ft², designed in a European and Traditional style with a steep gable roof pitched at 10/12 (40°) and brick exterior walls. The ridge runs parallel to the street, which gives the front a calm, balanced facade, and skylights bring daylight into the rooms under the roof. The house measures 30'5" wide and 24'4" deep, with a height of 23'4". It is a compact single family home that still fits two full bathrooms, a home office and a walk-in closet, so it suits a couple, a small family or anyone who works from home.
The front door opens into an entry that keeps coats and shoes away from the living area. Beyond it, an open floor plan joins the living space and the kitchen into one connected room, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. The large kitchen is the main feature of this open concept layout. Its breakfast bar works as a place for a quick morning coffee, a homework table or a serving counter when friends come over, and it saves room that a separate dining table would take.
The two bedrooms give the household a quiet, private side of the home, and one of them has a walk-in closet, so clothes and luggage stay out of sight. Two full bathrooms mean that mornings run without a queue and that guests have a bathroom of their own. The home office is a separate room with a door, a real place for a desk, bookshelves and video calls rather than a corner of the kitchen. A utility room holds the laundry and the household equipment, which keeps the main rooms tidy.
Outside, a deck extends the living space into the yard for summer meals and evenings in the open air. The house has no basement and stands on a pile foundation; it is also available with a slab, a strip footing or a block foundation. The walls are framed in silicate block, with aerated concrete, ceramic block and timber frame available on request. Brick on the facade and the classic gable roof give this traditional house plan a durable look that will age well.
