house Plans with Rear Entry Garage

At My Home Floor Plans, we offer 1000’s of expertly crafted designs featuring rear entry garages. Each plan includes editable CAD files, permit-ready PDFs, structural engineering, and an unlimited-build license. Whether you’re designing for a narrow lot, traditional neighborhood design (TND) standards, or simply want a clean front elevation, our plans give you the flexibility and elegance you’re after.

Why Choose a Rear Entry Garage?

• Enhanced curb appeal: The garage door is hidden from the street, making your front elevation look polished and inviting.
• Better street presence: Ideal for communities where architecture is the focal point, not vehicles.
• Improved safety: Rear garages reduce driveway traffic crossing sidewalks—perfect for families with children.
• More flexible layouts: Rear alley access allows creative room placement and landscaping in the front yard.

Incorporating a rear entry garage opens doors—literally and creatively—to cleaner street views and better neighborhood integration. This feature is particularly popular in traditional and modern suburban neighborhoods alike.

Rear Entry Garage Styles & Configurations

You’ll find rear entry garage house plans in a wide range of styles including:

• Modern Farmhouse

Rear garages also allow flexible features like detached guest suites, mudrooms, storage lofts, or rear courtyard patios.

Smart Space-Saving for Narrow & Alley Access Lots

For city dwellers or narrow-lot buyers, house plans with rear entry garage features are incredibly efficient. Alley access ensures you can use the full width of your lot for living space instead of sacrificing front-facing square footage for a driveway.

This approach is especially ideal for areas with tight setback requirements or for TND (Traditional Neighborhood Design) communities where garage visibility is discouraged. It’s also great for narrow house plans.

Popular Sizes for Rear Entry Garage Homes

You’ll find these garage plans across many size categories:

• 3 Bedroom, 4 Bedroom, and even 5 Bedroom homes
• Square footage ranging from under 2,000 sq. ft. to 5,000+
• Both 1-story and 2-story layouts available
