Here's a fresh take on midcentury modern design. What brings it into the present? Tons of storage, a home office, and bathrooms for everyone. The exterior showcases walls of windows and a courtyard. See what it looks like with privacy walls up. The three-car garage opens to the side and doesn't detract from the considerable curb appeal. Inside, the open layout flows from the great room into the island kitchen and the generous dining area. From here, you can step out to the spacious covered patio.

Barndominium style was the third most popular seller in 2024 for Houseplans.com and its sister sites. (In case you're wondering what was first, it was farmhouse by a landslide. Then, just ahead of barndominium was Craftsman.)Here's an exciting new take on the trend. Unlike in the related garagedominium style, the parking, while generous, isn't the main focus of this design. Rather, large porches draw the eye to the front and the side of the home.

Spring will be here soon, even if it really doesn't feel like it right now. Here's a new house plan that's ready. On the exterior, a spacious porch welcomes visitors and creates a peaceful place for sitting when the weather warms up. A side-entry garage keeps the focus on the front of the home. The open floor plan keeps the outdoor theme going. From the foyer, there's a clear sight line through the family room to the French doors that lead to the back porch.

Building on a smallish lot? (Honestly, who isn't?) Here's a striking, family-friendly home design with a main suite on each floor for ultimate versatility. On the exterior, rugged stone and an elegant hipped roof jazz up the farmhouse-flavored curb appeal. The front-facing garage is another detail that suits the design for a slim lot. Measuring just 44 feet wide, the layout feels contemporary with outstanding flow between the great room, dining zone, and kitchen.

A starter home plan that's well-thought-out should be just as flexible for a move-down design. Here's a new, contemporary house layout that gets it right. The exterior feels modern but not austere, with a sleek hipped roof and a grand entryway. Note the front-facing garage bay. Inside, the floor plan provides two bedrooms and an open layout for the gathering zones. The primary suite keeps it simple with a shower, two sinks, and a walk-in closet.

This new plan came as a surprise. After all, it's unusual to see a tiny home plan or accessory dwelling unit that's also a duplex design. It's an interesting twist on budget-friendly design and, if added to a larger property, could provide an elegant solution to housing a recent college grad and a grandparent (with each getting their privacy and independence). At first one barely registers that it's a multifamily design.

Here's an elegant way to present 1,311 square feet of living space, plus a spacious garage. This starter home design stands out with plenty of porch space. On the exterior, a metal roof and board-and-batten siding create farmhouse style. The large front porch visually balances the two-car garage and presents a generous place for autumnal decor. Inside, the open layout flows from the great room into the kitchen.
