Plan 93906R is a 3-bedroom single-story house plan that blends Contemporary, Northwest and Prairie lines with a Modern Mountain character, offering 1718 ft² of living space beneath a hip & valley roof. The L-shaped, narrow footprint measures 47'5" wide and 79'5" deep, and the exterior pairs stone/brick veneer with wood, a combination that looks both grounded and warm. With 2 full bathrooms, a half bath and every room on one level, this modern house plan suits a family that wants space to grow without stairs.
The heart of the home is an open floor plan in which the large family room, the kitchen and the breakfast nook share one generous, connected space. The large kitchen is organized around an island that works as a prep counter, a serving point and a natural place to gather while dinner is under way. A walk-in pantry keeps supplies and small appliances out of sight, so the counters stay clear. Large windows and floor-to-ceiling windows bring daylight deep into the rooms, and even on a short winter afternoon the family room feels bright. The breakfast nook gives the household an easy spot for weekday meals and leaves the main living area free for conversation and evenings together.
The three bedrooms are clustered together, keeping the sleeping quarters compact and quiet, an arrangement that parents of young children tend to appreciate. The main floor master comes with a walk-in closet, and two full bathrooms serve the bedrooms, while the half bath takes care of guests. Practical rooms are generous for a single-level home: laundry on the main floor means no carrying baskets up and down, a separate utility room houses the mechanical equipment, and dedicated storage holds seasonal items, sports gear and everything else a busy family accumulates.
Outside, a covered rear porch extends the living space into the open air, a sheltered place for morning coffee or a long summer dinner. A 2-car carport keeps both vehicles protected from rain and snow while preserving the light, open look of the facade. The house is designed without a basement, so the practical rooms on the main floor take over that role. The overlapping planes of the hip & valley roof, the texture of stone/brick veneer next to wood and the generous glazing give this 3 bedroom house plan a calm, refined presence in a suburban street or a country setting alike.
