1200 Sq Ft Cottage House Plan with Walk-in Pantry and 4 Beds

Plan 97698R is a 3-bedroom single-story house plan of 1264 ft², a Bungalow with a Classical, Greek Revival bearing under a hip roof pitched at 7/12 (30°). A portico marks the front door, and the exterior combines stucco, fiber cement products and tiles, giving the European and traditional elevations a polished, durable finish. The house measures 43'3" wide and 30'2" deep, with a height of 22'6", and the exterior walls are wood frame.

The entry leads into an open floor plan built around a large family room with a fireplace, the room where the household naturally gathers. The kitchen shares the living space instead of being closed off from it, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. A breakfast nook gives quick meals and morning coffee a place of their own, and a walk-in pantry keeps groceries and small appliances off the counters. On winter evenings the fireplace makes the family room the warm center of the whole one-story home.

The three bedrooms are clustered together, served by two full bathrooms, which keeps the sleeping area compact and close, a practical arrangement for a family with young children. A home office provides a separate room for remote work or study, apart from the everyday activity of the family room. A utility room takes care of laundry and household equipment, and because everything sits on one level, there are no stairs between the bedrooms, the kitchen and the living area.

Outside, a covered front porch and a covered rear porch give two sheltered places to sit, one greeting guests at the portico and one opening to the back of the house. The home stands on strip footings with no basement and is also available with a slab foundation on request. The wood frame walls can likewise be specified in clay block or aerated concrete. The plan has no garage, which keeps the hip-roofed bungalow house plan simple and focused on the living spaces.
