Plan 44569R is a 3-bedroom single-story house plan with 1626 ft² of living space under a gable roof pitched at 8/12 (34°), combined with flat roof sections. Its architecture is contemporary and modern with a modern farmhouse character, softened by European and transitional details, and the facades pair smooth stucco with stone/brick veneer. The L-shaped, T-shaped footprint measures 50'5" wide and 71'8" deep, with a height of 19'8". The ridge runs perpendicular to the street, so the clean gable end greets everyone who arrives.
Beyond the entry, an open floor plan joins the large family room, the large kitchen and the breakfast nook in one continuous space. Floor-to-ceiling windows and other large windows bring daylight deep into the rooms, and on a slow Sunday morning the nook becomes the natural spot for the first coffee. The kitchen gives several people room to cook together, while a walk-in pantry keeps supplies out of sight and the counters clear. With everything on one level and in one open area, preparing dinner, helping with homework and hosting friends all happen without anyone being shut away in another room.
The three bedrooms are clustered together, and the main floor master includes a walk-in closet for organized storage. Two full bathrooms serve the household, which makes this a comfortable 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom house plan for a growing family or for guests who stay the weekend. Laundry is on the main floor, set in the utility room, so washing and household equipment stay in one practical place, separate from the living areas.
This house plan without a basement stands on a slab foundation; pile, strip and block foundations are also available on request. The exterior walls are built of silicate block, with aerated concrete, ceramic block or frame construction offered as options. A front-entry 2-car garage extends forward of the main volume, giving the facade depth and keeping cars and storage close at hand. A deck carries daily life outdoors, perfect for summer meals and long evenings in the open air, rounding out a modern one-story home designed for year-round family living.
