Garlinghouse Traditional Split-Level House Plan 24251 with 2,064 Sq Ft, 3 Bedrooms and 2-Car Garage
House Plan 24251 from the historic Garlinghouse Collection combines timeless Traditional architecture with an efficient split-level floor plan designed for comfortable family living. Offering 2,064 square feet of thoughtfully planned living space, this inviting home features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and an attached front-entry 2-car garage. With spacious gathering areas, vaulted ceilings, and private upper-level bedrooms, this classic Garlinghouse design delivers the flexibility and enduring appeal that have made split-level homes a favorite for generations.
The exterior welcomes family and friends with a generous covered front porch that creates inviting curb appeal while providing a comfortable place to relax outdoors. Its front-entry garage allows the home to fit narrower lots without sacrificing interior living space, making it an excellent choice for neighborhoods where efficient use of the homesite is essential.
Step inside to discover a bright and welcoming interior where the formal dining room immediately captures attention with its soaring vaulted ceiling and beautiful bay window. Adjacent to the dining room, the spacious living room provides an elegant setting for entertaining while maintaining an open connection to the home's main gathering spaces.
The kitchen is thoughtfully positioned between the formal living areas and the family room, creating an efficient layout for both everyday living and special occasions. A decorative railing overlooks the sunken family room, adding architectural character while preserving an open, connected atmosphere throughout the main living level.
The step-down family room becomes a favorite gathering place with its handsome fireplace, convenient wet bar, and direct access to the rear patio. Whether hosting holidays, watching movies, or enjoying quiet evenings at home, this comfortable space is designed for making lasting family memories. The patio can also be expanded to create an even larger outdoor entertaining area.
All three bedrooms are privately located on the upper level, creating a peaceful retreat away from the active living spaces below. The owner's suite features a spacious bedroom, walk-in closet, dual-sink vanity, soaking tub, separate shower, and a compartmented water closet for added privacy and everyday convenience.
Two additional bedrooms share a centrally located full bathroom, providing comfortable accommodations for children, guests, or a home office while maintaining an efficient family-friendly layout.
As part of the renowned Garlinghouse Collection, House Plan 24251 reflects more than a century of thoughtful American residential design established by L. F. Garlinghouse in Topeka, Kansas. Combining timeless architecture, practical floor plans, and builder-friendly construction, this classic split-level continues the Garlinghouse tradition of creating homes that remain beautiful, functional, and comfortable for generations.
House Plan 24251 delivers Traditional styling, spacious entertaining areas, private bedroom accommodations, and timeless Garlinghouse craftsmanship in a versatile home designed for today's families.
