3-Bed, 900 Sq Ft European Gable Roof House Plan with Fireplace

Plan 29152R is a 3-bedroom single-story house plan that fits everyday family life into 913 ft², with Bungalow and Cottage character under a 6/12 gable roof whose ridge runs parallel to the street. European and Traditional details shape the facade, where wood and stucco share the exterior walls. The house measures 37'6" wide and 29'4" deep, with a height of 18'0", a compact footprint that makes this a true small house plan with no wasted corners. The walls are designed in aerated concrete block, and the plan is also available with ceramic block or wood-frame walls.

The front door opens into a defined entry, a practical buffer that keeps coats and shoes out of the living area. Beyond it, an open floor plan joins the family room and the kitchen into one connected space, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. A fireplace in the family room gives the home its center, the place everyone gathers on a cold evening. The kitchen is better equipped than its size suggests: a walk-in pantry keeps groceries and small appliances off the counters, and a breakfast nook provides a relaxed spot for morning coffee or an afternoon of homework.

All three bedrooms are clustered together, which keeps the sleeping area quiet and separate from the open living space. The master bedroom is on the main floor, as is every room in this home, so there are no stairs to climb at any stage of life. One full bathroom serves the bedrooms, while a half bathroom takes care of guests and busy mornings. A dedicated utility room handles laundry and household equipment, keeping that work out of sight.

Outside, a deck extends the living space into the open air for summer meals and quiet evenings. The house stands on strip footings and has no basement; it is also available with a slab foundation. This cottage house plan has no garage, which keeps the building simple and its footprint modest. With a fireplace, an open concept core and a well-organized plan, it suits a young family, a couple downsizing or anyone who wants a comfortable home without excess.
