Plan Description
Popular Modern Garage Living Plan with 1559 Sq Ft, 3 Beds, 2 Baths and a 2 Car Garage
Buyers will love this carriage house plan because modern style is very popular in today’s real estate market. Popular Contemporary Garage Living Plan 40816 has 1,359 square feet of living space. In addition, the design has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a drive-under 2 bay garage. Special features include an angled roof, deck, covered entry porch, and artist’s loft.
Exterior materials include dark gray siding, stone, and abundant windows. The entry porch roof is angled to match the main roof. We love the warm wood tones and the stone bases of the columns. Wood accents are continued on the underside of the roof, exposed rafters, and on the deck.

The ground level of Popular Contemporary Garage Living Plan 40816 consists of both finished and unfinished space. Garage area is 625 square feet and includes the storage area. It’s a two-bay garage and measures 21' wide by 19' deep. One man door leads into the living space. The second man door leads to the covered area under the deck which measures 24' wide by 10' deep.
Bedroom 3 is located on the ground floor along with a small storage closet for linens. This floor has a bathroom with a tub/shower combination. Use the bedroom for short-term rentals. Or use it for a guest room. Some homeowners simply use it for additional storage.
Modern Garage Apartment Plan With Art Loft
Upon entering the upper level of Popular Contemporary Garage Living Plan 40816, you will marvel at the family room. The family room has a dramatic sloped ceiling. In addition, it has wonderful natural light because of the high angled roof. The U-shaped kitchen includes everything you need, and there is seating for 5 at the counter bar.
Two bedrooms are located on the main floor, and they share the guest bathroom off the hallway. The bathroom has a tub/shower combination and room for the washer and dryer. This arrangement really saves space! Bedroom 2 has a small walk-in closet, and bedroom 1 has two standard-sized closets. You can access the art loft via a ship’s ladder from the main floor.
