House Plan with Gable Roof und 2-Car Attached Garage

Plan 81752R is a 3-bedroom two-story house plan that carries its Contemporary character lightly, blending the clean geometry of Modern design with the softer, timeless notes of European and Transitional architecture. The L-shaped layout wraps 1736 ft² of living space around the daily life of a family. The two-car garage, a front-entry design that extends forward of the main facade, gives the street view depth and a clear sense of arrival. Stone/brick veneer and smooth stucco share the exterior walls, and a gable roof with its ridge parallel to the street keeps the profile quiet, balanced and unmistakably residential.

The day begins on the covered front porch, a sheltered threshold that leads into a proper entry rather than straight into the living space. Beyond it, the open floor plan unfolds in one easy movement. The large family room is the heart of the house, anchored by a fireplace and washed in daylight from floor-to-ceiling windows, so evenings by the fire and mornings in the sun feel equally at home here. The kitchen is made for real use. A generous island hosts chopping, homework and conversation, a walk-in pantry keeps the counters clear, and a breakfast nook brightened by a corner window invites coffee to linger a little longer. The covered rear porch extends all of this outdoors, an open-air room for summer dinners and rainy afternoons alike.

Upstairs, the second floor master suite and the other bedrooms are clustered together, keeping the family close at night and the morning routine simple. The laundry sits on the second floor as well, right where clothes are worn, folded and put away, so no basket has to climb the stairs. Throughout the home, two full bathrooms and a half bath serve both the household and its guests. A skylight draws light down from above, and large windows keep the rooms connected to the outdoors and the changing sky. An in-law suite gives parents, longer-staying guests or a grown child a private place of their own. A home office gives remote work a door that closes, and a separate utility room keeps the mechanics of the house out of sight.

The house rests on a slab with a concrete stem wall foundation and has no basement, so every square foot of living space stays in the light, where the family actually spends its days. Covered porches at the front and the rear, a kitchen turned toward the view through its corner window, and the measured composition of stone, stucco and glass make this 1736 ft² home feel both current and lasting. It is a house designed for every season and for many years of family life.
