Plan 35917R is a 2-bedroom single-story house plan with a contemporary Scandinavian character, offering 1485 ft² of living space under a low single-pitch roof set at 2/12 (9.5°). This modern European single-family home pairs stucco with panels on the exterior walls, and its angled, L-shaped layout measures 59'7" wide and 63'4" deep, with a height of 17'4". Two bedrooms, two full bathrooms and an attached two-car garage make it a well-balanced one story house plan for a couple or a small family.
The entry leads into an open floor plan where the large family room, the dining area and the kitchen share one generous space. The large kitchen is organized around an island that works as both a prep surface and a casual gathering spot, while the breakfast nook gives morning coffee a place of its own. Floor-to-ceiling windows and a corner window open the living area to the outdoors and bring daylight deep into the house, so even a gray winter afternoon feels bright.
The bedrooms are clustered in one wing, away from the busier living zone. The main floor master includes a walk-in closet and its own full bathroom, and the second bedroom is served by another full bathroom nearby, which makes this a practical 2 bedroom house plan for hosting guests or a home office. A utility room and dedicated storage keep laundry, equipment and seasonal items out of sight, supporting the clean, uncluttered look of the interior.
The house stands on a slab foundation and has no basement; pile, strip and block foundations are also available on request. The exterior walls are built of silicate block, with aerated concrete, ceramic block and wood frame construction available as alternatives. A front-entry two-car garage keeps arrivals simple, and the deck extends the living space outside for summer dinners and quiet evenings. Large windows across the facade complete a modern house plan that lives comfortably on a single level, all within 1485 ft².
