What's a family-friendly house plan like these days?

Think affordability, versatility, and practicality. Oh, and more than a dash of curb appeal.

This plan showcases all of those things and fits on a narrow lot.

Let's start with affordability. Just 26 feet wide (and under 1,900 square feet), the floor plan doesn't require a lot of land. A patio that's tucked into the side gives outdoor living space.

And curb appeal: The two-car garage loads from the back, leaving the front free to present its neighborhood-friendly face.

Now for versatility. Families with a grandparent living at home will appreciate the first-floor bedroom with a full bathroom right next to it.

And practicality: Storage sits everywhere it's needed, such as the walk-in pantry, the mudroom, and the spacious coat closet.

Upstairs, the primary suite treats homeowners to a large walk-in closet and a private five-piece bathroom with dual sinks and a separate tub and shower. Two additional bedrooms have use of the hall bathroom.
