Plan 96016R is a 3-bedroom, 3-story house plan with European and Traditional character, offering 1949 ft² beneath a crisp shed roof with a 3/12 (14°) pitch. The L-shaped single family home measures 43'6" wide and 48'5" deep and rises 23'8" high. Its double shed roofline, with the ridge perpendicular to the street, gives the facade a quietly modern profile. Stone/brick veneer and stucco cover the exterior. The walls are built of silicate block, and aerated concrete, ceramic block or frame construction are also available on request.
Inside, a closed floor plan gives every room its own walls and its own purpose. Guests step into a proper entry before reaching the family room, where a fireplace anchors the seating area and makes long winter evenings feel settled and calm. The large kitchen is the working heart of the house: a walk-in pantry keeps supplies out of sight, and a breakfast nook offers a bright spot for the first coffee of the day without bringing the whole household into the cooking zone. A dedicated home office sits apart from the everyday traffic, so remote work and homework both have a door that closes.
The three bedrooms are clustered together, which keeps the sleeping quarters quiet and close for a young family. The master suite occupies the second floor and includes a walk-in closet, and two full bathrooms serve the household. Practical rooms are generous for a home of this size. The laundry is on the main floor, next to a utility room and extra storage. A private sauna adds a touch of spa comfort that most homes of 1949 ft² simply do not offer.
The house stands on a bored pile foundation and is also available with a slab, strip footings or a block foundation. There is no basement. The attached 2-car garage has front entry and extends forward of the main volume, shaping the L-shaped footprint and sheltering the approach to the front door. At the back, a deck opens the living spaces to the yard for summer meals and quiet mornings outdoors. For buyers looking for a house plan with fireplace, a sauna and a 2-car garage in a refined European exterior, 96016R brings it all together in a compact, well-organized home.
