COOL Plan Description
Retro Contemporary Home Plan 9714 with 4 Bedrooms, Sun Deck, Office and Split-Level Design
House Plan 9714 is a stellar Retro Contemporary masterpiece from the legendary Garlinghouse Collection that proves great architecture never goes out of style. Offering 2,680 square feet, 4 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, a dedicated home office, and a drive-under 2-car garage, this split-level design was ahead of its time and still feels remarkably modern today. Designed specifically for sloping lots and rugged terrain, it's a choice home that embraces dramatic views, multiple outdoor living areas, and the clean architectural style that defined an era.
The exterior captures the bold personality of classic Retro Contemporary architecture with striking rooflines, expansive windows, and strong geometric forms. A spacious covered sun deck and lower patio create outstanding outdoor living areas where homeowners can relax, entertain, or simply enjoy spectacular hillside views. Every angle of the home is designed to make the most of challenging homesites while delivering unforgettable curb appeal.
Inside, the split-level floor plan creates natural separation between gathering areas and private living spaces without sacrificing openness. A welcoming foyer with a convenient coat closet introduces bright, connected living areas where large windows frame outdoor views while filling the home with natural light.
The country kitchen is positioned beside the formal dining room, creating an efficient layout for both everyday meals and entertaining. Generous workspace, abundant cabinetry, and practical planning make the kitchen the heart of the home while keeping family and guests comfortably connected.
Four spacious bedrooms provide flexibility for growing families, overnight visitors, or changing household needs. A dedicated home office offers the perfect space for remote work, studying, or creative projects, adding valuable versatility to this already flexible design. Three full bathrooms help busy mornings run smoothly while providing comfort for everyone.
The drive-under 2-car garage makes excellent use of the sloping homesite while providing secure parking, generous storage, and easy access to the home's lower level. Additional storage throughout the home ensures everything has its place without sacrificing living space.
Built from the enduring legacy of the Garlinghouse Collection, House Plan 9714 showcases the visionary design philosophy that made these homes iconic. Its clean lines, split-level layout, dramatic outdoor living, and hillside-friendly design continue to feel fresh and relevant decades later, making this a righteous example of timeless American residential architecture.
