1-Story House Plan 1198 ft²: 3 Beds, 1.5 Baths, Open Floor Plan, without Garage

Plan 26199C is a 3-bedroom single-story house plan that gives a bungalow layout of 1198 ft² the calm symmetry of Neoclassical design, sheltered beneath a hip and valley roof with a 6/12 pitch. A portico marks the front door, and the exterior walls combine stucco with stone/brick veneer, a pairing that draws on Greek Revival, European and traditional architecture. The house measures 43'6" wide and 42'5" deep, and every room of daily life sits on one level, which makes this small house plan as practical as it is graceful.

The entry opens into an open floor plan built around a generously sized family room, where a fireplace anchors the seating area and sets the tone on winter evenings. Large windows and floor-to-ceiling windows bring daylight deep into the room and connect it visually with the covered rear porch. The kitchen shares this open space, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation, and a breakfast nook offers a relaxed spot for morning coffee and quick family meals without a separate formal dining room.

The three bedrooms are clustered together, away from the living area, which keeps the sleeping quarters quiet. The main floor master bedroom spares the owners any stairs, and the two additional bedrooms work well for children, guests or a home office. One full bathroom serves the bedrooms, while a half bath near the living spaces is convenient for visitors. A utility room keeps laundry and household equipment out of sight, and the entry gives a place to leave coats and shoes.

Outside, a covered front porch and a covered rear porch extend the living space in both directions, the front one welcoming guests under the portico and the back one ready for quiet evenings outdoors. The house has no basement and no garage, which keeps the footprint simple. It stands on strip footings and is also available with a slab or a concrete block foundation. The exterior walls are framed in aerated concrete block, with ceramic hollow block or sand-lime block available on request. For anyone looking for a classical bungalow house plan with a fireplace and an easy one-level flow, 26199C delivers refinement in a compact form.
