Plan 98578R is a 2-bedroom single-story house plan that blends Bungalow, European and Traditional styles into 1613 ft² of living space under a hip and valley roof. Brick exterior walls and a 5/12 roof pitch give the T-shaped home a grounded, timeless profile. The house measures 62'1" wide and 50'1" deep, with a height of 17'0", and keeps every room on one level for easy day-to-day living.
A proper entry welcomes guests and sets the tone for a closed floor plan, where each room has its own walls and purpose instead of one shared open space. The large kitchen is the working heart of the house: a breakfast bar for quick meals and conversation, a breakfast nook for slower mornings over coffee, and a walk-in pantry that keeps groceries and small appliances out of sight. A dedicated home office gives remote work or household paperwork a quiet room with a door that closes.
The two bedrooms are clustered together, which keeps the sleeping wing calm and separate from the kitchen and entry. The main floor master includes a walk-in closet, and with two full bathrooms, both the owners and a guest or family member have a private bath. Laundry on the main floor, a separate utility room and extra storage handle the practical side of the household without crowding the living areas.
Outside, a front-entry 1-car garage offers sheltered parking and room for tools and seasonal gear. A deck extends the home outdoors for summer dinners and quiet evenings. The house stands on a pile foundation and is built without a basement; it is also available with a slab, strip or block foundation on request. The main walls are framed in silicate block, with aerated concrete, ceramic block or wood frame construction available as alternatives, so this brick house plan can be adapted to the builder's preferences.
