3-Bedroom, 1600 Sq Ft European House Plan with 2-Car Garage

Plan 74420R is a 3-bedroom 2-story house plan of 1635 ft² that pairs a modern farmhouse silhouette with contemporary, European and Shingle-style details under a steep 10/12 gable roof. This L-shaped single-family home measures 51'3" wide and 43'9" deep and rises 26'6" high. Its ridge runs parallel to the street, giving the facade a calm, balanced profile, while fiber cement products and wood clad the exterior walls in a combination that feels both crisp and natural.

A welcoming entry leads into an open floor plan built around a large family room with vaulted ceilings and a fireplace, the natural gathering place on winter evenings. Floor-to-ceiling windows and other large windows pull daylight deep into the room, and a skylight adds light from above. The kitchen keeps everyone connected: a breakfast bar looks out over the living space, a breakfast nook sits beside a corner window for unhurried mornings, and a walk-in pantry keeps supplies and small appliances out of sight. A dedicated home office offers a quiet place to work or study, separate from the everyday flow of the family room.

The second-floor master suite shares the upper level with the two other bedrooms, and the clustered bedroom layout keeps parents close to children. The master bedroom includes a walk-in closet, and two full bathrooms serve the household comfortably. A utility room keeps the practical side of family life organized, and a balcony gives the house a private outdoor spot with a view.

The house is designed without a basement. An attached, front-entry 2-car garage gives direct access to the home, and its roof doubles as a garage rooftop deck, an unexpected open-air retreat. At the back, a covered rear porch shelters outdoor meals in any weather, while a separate deck adds more room for sunny afternoons. For anyone searching for a house plan with fireplace, vaulted ceilings and generous outdoor living, this home brings them together in one refined design.
