Plan 26674R is a 2-bedroom single-story house plan of 1147 ft², a compact bungalow with European and traditional character under a hip and valley roof pitched at 7/12 (30°). The L-shaped home measures 43'3" wide and 46'9" deep, with a height of 21'6". Its facade combines stone/brick veneer, wood and stucco, and the exterior walls are built of aerated concrete block, with clay block or wood framing available on request. A bonus level upstairs leaves room to expand.
The front door opens to an entry that leads straight into an open floor plan. The large family room is the center of the house, and its fireplace gives the space a natural gathering point on long winter evenings. A skylight brings daylight deeper into the interior. The kitchen connects directly to the living area and includes a walk-in pantry for bulk storage and a breakfast nook for casual meals, so everyday cooking and conversation happen in one shared space instead of separate rooms.
The bedrooms are clustered in one wing, away from the busier side of the home. The master bedroom is on the main floor, so this house plan with a main floor master works well for those who prefer to live without stairs. With one full bathroom and one half bathroom, guests have their own powder room while the full bath serves the private wing. A utility room keeps laundry and household equipment out of sight.
The front-entry two-car garage projects forward and forms the short leg of the L, giving the home a sheltered approach. At the back, a covered rear porch extends the family room outdoors, and a deck adds open space for grilling or a morning coffee in the sun. The house stands on a concrete block foundation without a basement, and it is also available with strip footings or a slab. This small house plan with fireplace and garage offers a practical layout, refined materials and space to grow upstairs.
