This two-story plan has a footprint of 44'-7" × 24'-11" and 1,800 sq ft of living space, not counting the 1-car garage. The ground floor is organized around a double-height living room of 13'-1" × 23'-0". The kitchen (15'-0" × 8'-0") and dining room (8'-10" × 14'-7") sit beside it, so cooking, eating and sitting share one open sequence. The foyer, guest WC and laundry stay at the edges of the plan, and an entry porch marks the front door.

Upstairs, a 26'-10" × 7'-0" gallery looks down into the living room and connects the three bedrooms. The primary bedroom (10'-0" × 15'-7") has an ensuite bathroom (6'-0" × 8'-4") and a walk-in closet (6'-0" × 6'-10"). Bedroom 2 (11'-11" × 8'-8") and Bedroom 3 (12'-9" × 8'-8") share the family bathroom (7'-4" × 7'-0"). A single stair, 7'-8" × 7'-0", links the foyer to the gallery. There is no basement.

Who this plan suits

This plan suits a small family or a couple who want one tall, bright living space and bedrooms grouped on a separate level. It needs a lot at least wide enough for the 44'-7" × 24'-11" footprint plus side setbacks, with street access for the garage and entry porch.

How this plan was made

It was generated in AI Architectures Plan Studio from this one-line brief: “Two-story house, 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, ground floor open kitchen, dining, double-height living room with gallery above, guest WC, laundry; upstairs 3 bedrooms including primary suite, attached 1-car garage, about 160 m² (1,722 sq ft) of living space (garage not included). Metric European / Latin American layout: compact rooms, no basement.” An AI architect drafted the room program, a layout solver placed every wall and door, and the plan was checked automatically for room sizes, circulation and daylight. The same project produced the PDF sheets, layered DXF, IFC model and 3D model you can download above.

Frequently asked questions

What are house plans with a double height living room?

They are plans where the living room is open through both floors, so the ceiling rises to the full height of the house. Here the living room is 13'-1" × 23'-0" and the upstairs gallery looks into it, which links the two levels visually.

What affects the cost and lot requirements of this plan?

The footprint is 44'-7" × 24'-11" with two levels and no basement, so the lot needs to fit that rectangle plus your local setbacks. The double-height volume adds wall and glazing area compared with a plan that has a floor over the living room, and finishes, soil and local labor rates will affect your final cost.

Can I change this plan by chat?

Yes. You can describe changes in plain language, such as resizing a bedroom, moving the garage to the other side, or fitting a narrower lot. The plan is regenerated with the new layout and updated room sizes.

How do I use the PDF, DXF and IFC files?

The PDF is for reviewing and sharing the floor plans. The DXF opens in CAD software for drafting and editing, and the IFC imports into BIM tools. Have a local architect or engineer check the plan against your site and building code before you build.
