Contemporary Home Plan: Clean Lines, Functional Layout & Modern Comfort

This Contemporary + Modern Suburban home plan features 1,447 heated sq. ft., 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a basement-entry garage, and full CAD blueprints—an ideal blueprint for families, builders, and homeowners seeking a modern lifestyle upgrade.

This carefully crafted Contemporary home design blends clean architectural lines with the practicality of a Modern Suburban layout. With a streamlined horizontal lap siding exterior, clerestory window accents, and a welcoming covered front porch, the home balances modern simplicity with timeless curb appeal. The efficient footprint makes it perfect for suburban lots, sloped lots, and narrow urban parcels where space and scale matter.

Exterior Architecture & Materials

The exterior showcases horizontal lap siding, a hallmark of modern suburban construction that keeps maintenance low while offering crisp visual appeal. Paired with a compact porch and tall surrounding trees, the home integrates beautifully into a quiet neighborhood or wooded setting.

The elevation uses long, uninterrupted lines, large modern windows, and a simple roof profile to convey a Contemporary aesthetic. This style favors functionality while maintaining a warm, livable presence.

Interior Layout & Flow

Inside, the plan embraces a thoughtful layout ideal for everyday living. The main level features an open-concept arrangement that encourages natural light flow and creates a sense of spaciousness. The seamless connection between living areas supports both family gatherings and quiet evenings at home.

Basement & Garage Features
