If I ever had to pick just one home to live in forever—like, plant-my-roots-and-never-move-again kind of home—it might just be this one.

We’re talking about a European Transitional House Plan that blends classic brick charm with all the swoon-worthy details modern life demands.

At over 5,498 square feet of stylish, functional space, this place isn’t just a house.

It’s an experience.

One that includes vaulted ceilings, a home gym, multiple porches, and yes—even a bar tucked between the dining room and kitchen.

Cheers to that!

Let’s take a walk through the house and I’ll show you what makes it the kind of place that turns guests into future neighbors.

Curb Appeal That Winks at You

From the moment you lay eyes on this home, it’s already flirting with your architectural heart.

The painted brick exterior is stately without being stiff, and that curved arch over the covered entry?

It’s giving “storybook chic.”

Add in those sleek metal roof accents and a charming little shed dormer peeking out like a stylish hat, and you’ve got a home that says, “I’m classy, but I also know where the good wine is.”

This is the kind of exterior that makes the neighbors slow down as they drive by—either out of admiration or envy (probably both).

And stepping inside doesn’t disappoint either.

The Foyer, the Office, and the Fancy First Glimpse

Walk through the front door and you’re greeted by a foyer that knows how to make an entrance.

To the right, a private home office hides behind a sleek door—perfect for Zoom calls, focus sessions, or hiding from your children for ten uninterrupted minutes. (No judgment.)

To the left?

A formal dining room that practically begs for holiday dinners and fancy wine nights.

But here’s where it gets even better: there’s a secret passageway that connects the dining room to the kitchen.

And this isn’t just a “walk past the fridge” type of situation—it includes a bar and pantry.

Let me repeat: a bar AND a pantry.

It’s like they read my dream journal.

Kitchen, Breakfast Room, and Family Room Fusion

Now we step into what I call the soul of the house—the family room and kitchen combo.

This is open-concept done right.

The kitchen is centered around a large island that’s perfect for baking cookies, doing homework, or pretending to cook while ordering takeout.

The breakfast nook is right nearby, perfect for lazy brunches or those weekday mornings where you’re just trying to make it out the door in one piece.

The family room has a fireplace that anchors the space beautifully, giving it that warm, cozy “I’m home” feeling, and giant windows that overlook the outdoor living room.

Oh yes, there’s an outdoor living room—and yes, you can actually live in it.

We’ll get to that soon.

Main Floor Bedrooms

The layout here is smart.

Like, “whoever designed this was probably a genius” kind of smart.

The two main-floor bedrooms are split on opposite sides of the house, so everyone gets privacy.

Both bedrooms feature vaulted ceilings that make the rooms feel even bigger and more open.

But let’s talk about the primary suite for a second.

It’s more of a private retreat than a bedroom, honestly.

There’s outdoor access for morning coffee or stargazing at night, and inside?

Expect space, elegance, and peace.

The Home Gym

Tired of dragging yourself to the gym?

This house brings the gym to you—and not just any gym.

We’re talking about a vaulted home gym.

It’s bright, airy, and inspiring.

Honestly, it might guilt-trip you into doing some squats while you wait for your laundry. (Don’t worry, I’ll join you for the cool-down stretch only.)

Now let’s head upstairs, where the magic doesn’t slow down for a second.

This European Transitional house plan knows exactly how to mix refined elegance with family-friendly practicality—and upstairs proves it’s not just about first-floor flash.

There’s depth, intention, and a little bit of wow in every corner.

The Vaulted Playroom & Porch Combo You Didn’t Know You Needed

Let’s kick things off with one of my favorite upstairs features: the vaulted playroom.

I mean, who said kids should get boring rooms?

This space is bright, fun, and full of potential—think creative zone, teen hangout, or even a zen yoga space if you’re feeling fancy.

But wait—it gets better.

That playroom opens up to a vaulted upstairs porch.

Yes, a second-story outdoor space.

It’s not just some tiny balcony either.

We’re talking full-on retreat status.

You could sip wine here, read in peace, or just take in the view while plotting how to turn your neighbors green with envy.

And the vaulted ceiling gives it that breezy, open vibe that makes you forget you’re even inside a house.

Bedrooms That Speak Fluent “Privacy + Style”

Upstairs includes two spacious bedrooms, each with their own private bathrooms—because let’s face it, once you’ve had your own bathroom, it’s hard to go back.

No more awkward morning traffic jams or passive-aggressive towel stealing.

Each bedroom feels like its own suite, which is perfect if you’ve got older kids, frequent guests, or just want everyone to have their own peaceful corner of the world.

These rooms are tucked away for quiet and calm, but still close enough to the main action that no one feels isolated.

The Study

This house really gets it—sometimes you just need a little breathing room.

That’s why there’s also a dedicated upstairs study.

Whether you’re writing a novel, managing work-from-home tasks, or just need a cozy place to pretend you’re productive, this space delivers.

It’s tucked away enough to feel like a true getaway, but still part of the home’s natural flow.

Oh, and the views?

They don’t hurt either.

Bonus Room Goals

Now for the cherry on top: the optionally finished bonus/media room.

Clocking in at 335 square feet of pure potential, this room can become anything you want it to be.

Home theater?

Yes.

Game room?

Absolutely.

Teenage lair?

Why not.

Adult lair?

Also yes.

It’s the kind of space that changes with your lifestyle.

Today it might be your Friday night movie spot; tomorrow it could be the ultimate Super Bowl party zone.

Either way, it’s giving “flexible luxury,” and I’m here for it.

Outdoor Living Room

Remember that family room with a view?

It looks out onto one of the most iconic parts of this house: the outdoor living room.

And I’m not talking about some sad patio with folding chairs.

I’m talking built-in magic.

Covered, cozy, and connected directly to the indoors, this outdoor space is made for gathering.

From summer barbecues to chilly nights by the fire pit, it’s designed to extend your living area into the great outdoors—without ever compromising comfort.

And since the primary suite also has access to it, you can sneak out here for peaceful mornings before the chaos begins.

So, what do you get when you combine a painted brick European exterior, transitional interior vibes, vaulted everything, and enough square footage to host the next season of a home design show?

You get this 5,498-square-foot dream home.

This house doesn’t just check boxes—it throws away the checklist.

Whether you’re hosting a dinner party in the formal dining room, working out in your private gym, or watching the sunset from your upstairs porch, every moment here feels elevated.

It’s elegant without being pretentious.

Spacious without feeling cold.
