4 Bedroom L Shaped Floor Plans

4 Bedroom L Shaped Floor Plans

With home plans being as varied and daring as they are these days, it can be difficult to know what style, shape or size house that you want. From U-shaped through to sunken bungalows that hide in hillsides, there is something for everyone and all budgets, but to really put the L into luxury, we don't think you can go wrong with L-shaped house plans.

The perfect combination of sociable living space and privacy, an L-shaped house or bungalow allows for a main body and an extra wing, making them not only a high-end installation, but adaptable for growing families. Take a look at these examples of houses, some of which even include L-shaped bedrooms), and see if you are excited by the possibility of building one yourself!

Mediterranean marvel

When thinking about L shaped house plans, you may be picturing super modern, sleek flat roof designs and though we will come to those, why not open up your definition a little? We love this slice of the continent, from Müller Büro, that offers beautiful design, bright colours and wonderfully useable space in equal measures. That pastel blue and terracotta orange exterior is hard to miss, but the fantastic shape of the building itself should be the main attraction, with a large open plan living room and kitchen zone leading off to a bedroom wing. Wonderful!

Defined shapes

A super modern incarnation of L shaped house plans, this house offers bags of style and practicality that has us yearning to dive inside for a proper look around! A fabulous two storey building, the size of the plot is being used to its full potential to include sizeable bedrooms, a large living room and this naturally enclosed terrace that is perfect for entertaining. We can't deny that we are a little bit green with envy and can imagine how wonderful it is looking out from each window to enjoy a panoramic dose of scenery.

Different strokes

The real joy of embracing L shaped house plans is that they in no way dictate what style or size property you should have. It does not naturally follow that you have to have a single floored flat roof build, you can opt for anything you like, including a fantastic modern farmhouse style, as seen here. Using wooden cladding on both parts of the building helps to tie them together, while the extensive glazing give an impression of the luxurious finishes to be found inside. What a unique interpretation!

Imagination at work

Imagine visiting your architect and telling them you are keen on L shaped house plans, but you wanted to do something totally different to anything else you have seen before. Now imagine looking at the plans for this spectacular home as a means of answering your brief. Amazing isn't it? Usually quite stark and boxy, the L in this example has been given curves, allowing for a far more natural exterior that is so smooth and beautiful that it is eminently tactile. It stands to reason that the interior of the is magnificent home will also make good use of the curves, allowing for a warm and welcoming ambience in every room.

Extended shape

If you already have a home that would lend itself to an extension, perhaps you might consider one that takes inspiration from L shaped house plans. Here we can see a fabulous barn conversion style of property that has welcomed the addition of a large and impressive conservatory on one end. Essentially adding a whole new wing to the building, this space has melded seamlessly with the rest of the house to significantly increase not only the footprint but also the appeal. We like that the extension has been kept entirely different, rather than attempting to conceal the addition through the use of similar building materials, as it makes for a very honest house.

Flat and fantastic

Here is a wonderful example of the L shaped house plans that you were probably picturing at the beginning of this Ideabook and wasn't it worth the wait? What an incredible space that offers so much potential for personalisation and development! We love the way the front garden has become an almost self-contained area, with large glazing panels allowing residents the luxury of looking out onto lush greenery. For an extra touch of nature, a living roof would be a phenomenal addition to this house, offering insulation as well as camouflage. L really does stand for lovely in this instance!

Large scale

If your design and build aspirations are not on the modest side and you are keen to build big, L shaped house plans can work wonderfully well for you. With a grand budget and plot, the possibilities for creating something totally unique and grandiose are endless and as this example shows, a dynamic L shape adds a sense of high end luxury like no other design. Perfectly mirrored by the swimming pool, the angular nature of the property, combined with its sheer scale, has created something that many of us can only dream of owning.

Off-piste

If the practicality of L shaped house plans appeals to you but won't quite work with your needs and available space, don't be afraid to employ a little artistic licence. We love that the design team in charge of this property have seen the inherent potential of L-shaped houses, but also adapted the generic style to fit the client's brief. By off-setting the two main living quarters, so as to maximise the plot, it has been left to the garage to complete the 'L'. Too small for a full wing or bedroom annexe, the garage block is perfect for two cars and finishes the property perfectly.

Blended beauty

Speaking of artistic licence, this property may be utilising more of a 'J' shape than a full on 'L', but it has clearly been inspired by L shaped house plans. The building as a whole is impressive, but the use of natural cladding to help camouflage with the surroundings is a stroke of genius, as is using a curved shape to gain as much useable space as possible. The panoramic glazing adds an incredible element to the front of the house, as well as infusing the interior with a steady stream of natural light. Absolutely wonderful; we couldn't improve this property if we tried!

Small compromises

If you love the idea of L-shaped house plans, but have no feasible way to include them in your next build, why not start small and work your way up? Up to the attic we mean! This fabulous loft conversion makes use of every available inch of space, to create one of the most perfect L-shaped bedroom ideas ever. Clever use of skylights allows the room to feel large and airy, while the wooden floor helps to bring a sense of warmth and calm. Gorgeous!

The advantages of an L-shaped house

Wide open spaces: That's what you get if you opt for an open-floor concept on the inside!

Indoor-outdoor harmony: The L-shaped layout enhances a seamless continuity between your home's interiors and the outdoors – thus, better ensure your garden is all that it can be!

Unending potential: With a dynamic L-shape, your house offers you the possibilities for development and customisation. That can include to personalise your interiors, relish in some hard landscaping outside, add more amenities (like a pool or outdoor kitchen), etc.

Amazing views: It doesn't matter if your L-shaped home is located on a spacious property or if you share it in a sub-division with other neighbours, you will still have the opportunity to enjoy the views along your property's one side.

For the heart of your home

Not lucky enough to have your own L-shaped bungalow? How about paying homage to your favourite figure via an L-shaped kitchen instead?

Speaking of houses, let's see these 8 materials perfect for exterior façades.

Adjusting to an l-shaped house with a backyard…

Contrary to what you might believe, having an l-shaped backyard is a great foundation for a patio. With the shape already set for you, it's easy to insert a small patio into the l-shape of the house. Here, this home looks elegant with its cornered patio looking out onto grass.

If you're trying to decorate the yard of an l-shaped home, it's best to work with the shape, rather than against it. Allow the natural shape of the home create the look you want to achieve. Overloading the backyard could seem overwhelming. Adding more plants along the sides of the house could be a good idea — just make sure that you leave enough room for the kids to roam around.

Consider speaking to a professional if you are having trouble with the backyard of your l-shaped house.

Playground Bedroom Set

Playground Bedroom Set

For the past few months, I've been trying to make my master bedroom more of a haven. I live in a small apartment, and I work at home from a desk in my bedroom, so it can be hard to make it a peaceful environment when all the room screams is work, work, work.

I'm considering buying a new bedroom set to improve the space. It can be challenging to find an affordable set, though. Some bedroom sets from top luxury brands can cost as much as $10,000, and even some mid-range design stores like Pottery Barn and Crate & Barrel can charge several thousand dollars for a bed and a couple of pieces of matching furniture.

Because I don't have the budget to invest so heavily in a new set of bedroom furniture, I set out on a mission to find beautiful-but-cheap bedroom sets that have great ratings and will last a long time. I know I'll probably have to move next year due to my husband's job, so I also want a style that's timeless enough not to look out of place — no matter where we end up.

If you're also looking for an affordable bedroom set, here are some of my top tips:

Don't be brand specific.

Sure, that Ethan Allen set is completely stunning as is the ultra modern and sleek set from Z Gallerie. However, when you're searching for a bedroom set, try not to be brand specific.

Although I've liked one particular luxury tufted bed for many years now, I recently saw a similar one at Wal-Mart of all places. So, don't let the name of the store dissuade you from purchasing an item there. You never know what you're going to find and where, so it's best to be open minded about the brand you select.

You don't have to be matchy-matchy.

It's great to have every piece of furniture in your room match — that's the whole idea of a set, right? Most of the examples featured below do match, but I also want to encourage you to be a bit creative too.

Maybe buy a bed and a dresser that match but purchase unique nightstands that stand on their own. Or you can get dressers, side tables, and a mirror that match, but your bed can be a unique color or a statement piece.

Finally, don't be afraid to upgrade gradually from the inherited furniture you already have, or to take a more eclectic approach and incorporate a nice piece or two from a yard sale or secondhand store.

Buy floor samples.

Some people want brand-new furniture, while others don't mind buying a new set that lots of people have sat on if it means they're going to get a good deal on the price. Floor samples are often in excellent condition. They might have a few scratches or dents from being moved around the showroom, but more often than not they are free from stains and other large issues and offer a great discount.

Remember to measure.

You might love one of those huge canopy beds (I love them myself), but there's no reason to pay more for a large or ornate bedroom set if you have a small space. Large furniture can make a room feel very cramped and small, so even if you find your dream bedroom set, be sure to measure your room to make sure everything will fit and that your purchase is worth the price.

Our favorite affordable bedroom sets

Here are some of the best, well-priced bedroom sets I came across in my search. All get good reviews or come from reputable retailers. I've grouped them by the number of pieces of furniture included in the price.

Two-piece bedroom sets

Two-piece bedroom sets can cost several thousand dollars at some stores, and a beautiful bed just by itself can cost more than $1,000. The three sets below all come in at under $1,000 for both pieces of furniture.

The Aspen Collection Queen Bed & Nightstand Set

Cost: $536

This two-piece bedroom set is perfect for the homeowner who has a classic, traditional style. It would work best in a home that has a lot of wood tones with bedroom linens that are more casual versus high end. The $536 price tag makes it an affordable option for just about anyone, whether you're getting your first apartment after college, are a newlywed, or just want to spruce up your bedroom with a classic furniture style.

IKEA Storage Bedroom Set

Cost : $400

What I love the most about this IKEA bedroom set is that the Malm bed comes with built-in under-the-bed storage. This is great for a small space because you won't have to purchase an additional dresser. Pair this with a sleek and simple IKEA rolling coffee table as your nightstand and you've got a great two-piece bedroom set with a ton of storage for a very low price.

The Baxton Studio Modern Bedroom Set

Cost: $926

This beautiful gray, modern bedroom set is unique: Instead of coming with a nightstand or dresser it actually includes a bench for the foot of the bed. The bench offers a place to get dressed in the morning and put on your shoes, and looks simply beautiful with the bed. This set would look great with mirrored or wooden nightstands, and adds a big dose of elegance for under $1,000. (Also check out the beige linen version here.)

Three- and four-piece bedroom sets

All the bedroom sets below have either three or four pieces and come in at under $1,750.

IKEA Country House Bedroom Set

Cost: $787

This cute, four-piece cottage-style bedroom is based on IKEA's Tyssedal series. Perfect for a summer retreat or farmhouse feel, the simple white set comes with a bed frame, two nightstands, and a six-drawer dresser. Add a wardrobe for $349 and you have a five-piece bedroom that barely tops $1,000. And like anything else IKEA, you can swap in just about anything else in the store to put your own spin on this affordable bedroom set.

The Bermuda Bedroom Set

Cost: $538

If you love a beachy vibe in your home to remind you of the ocean, the waves, and the smell of the saltwater, then you'll love this bedroom set. It's an amazing price too. At $538, you get three pieces of furniture including a headboard, nightstand, and chest.

The Jilly Bean Bedroom Set

Cost: $1,749

This Jilly Bean bedroom set includes a queen bed frame, nightstand, dresser, and mirror. It has a really nice, modern look that would be great for couples who can't agree on a design. You can't go wrong with the beautiful sloped headboard and coordinating pieces.

The Phillipe Bedroom Set

Cost: $782

If you've always loved the appearance of sleigh beds then you'll love this four-piece bedroom set . It's French inspired and comes with a large mirror that's perfect for getting ready in the morning, along with a dresser and nightstand (the chest in the background is not included).

This set would work best in a bedroom that's more spacious, because the dark cherry wood, while luxurious, can make a small room feel even smaller. The price is great at around $782 — with free shipping, too.

Five-piece bedroom sets

All the bedroom sets below have either five pieces and come in at under $2,000.00.

IKEA Tropical Bedroom Set

Cost: $528

I always love looking through the IKEA catalog because they put together beautiful rooms at affordable prices. You can get the look found in this tropics-inspired bedroom using IKEA's Brusali series. A bed frame, two nightstands, and two four-drawer dressers add up to a very affordable $528.

That means you'll have enough money left over to buy some of the other details pictured, like the $49 lamps, to complete the scene and create your own tropical refuge.

The Regitina Bedroom Set

Cost: $1,820

I fell in love with this bedroom set as soon as I saw it. I love that it includes a huge mirror and the white color makes it feel light, bright, and airy despite the amount of furniture in the room. While it's one of the more expensive sets on this list, it's still well below what many other stores charge for five pieces of furniture.

The Napa White Bedroom Set

Cost: $1,949

Although I do like the more traditional bedroom sets featured on this list, I felt like

this one

was very unique. It's white — the color of the year for 2016, at least according to Benjamin Moore and Sherwin Williams — but the small design details, especially the headboard, really make it stand out.

Le Charmel Bedroom Set

Cost: $1,296

For under $1,300, this bedroom set provides a lot of value. It includes the bed, dresser, two nightstands, and a mirror — so all you'll need to buy outside of this set are some bed linens and decorative pillows. It has a nice traditional style that would go well in many homes.

10 Fun Ideas for a Bedroom Makeover

Giving your bedroom a fun makeover not only breathes new life into your space but it also helps bring things up-to-date. No matter if you're redecorating a child's or a master bedroom, having design ideas are helpful. Here are ten fun ideas for a bedroom makeover that will help inspire your project.

Use a Statement Art Piece

When thinking about bedroom designs and ideas, the addition of a statement art piece helps tie everything together. Use of this piece of art can also serve as the room's inspiration and focal point. Place it over the headboard or dresser.

Don't Be Afraid of Patterns

Incorporation of patterns can involve the use of wallpaper on one or malls walls, as well as fabrics. The trick is not to use too much. If you're going to use it on the walls, then sprinkle in more patterns on pillows and a bed skirt.

Bring in Your Personal Style

Why does a bedroom have to be one whereby only bedroom furnishings are the mainstays? Instead, fun elements should be included when thinking about design ideas for master bedroom or other bedrooms. Include personal treasures, as well as photographs depicting your interests.

Focus on Your Favorite Colors

When you're working on this bedroom makeover, why not focus on your favorite color? For example, you could think about purple bedroom design ideas or decorating a blue bedroom if those are your favorite colors.

Incorporate Pops of Color

Sometimes a fun bedroom makeover just needs pops of color. Coming up with ideas for a bedroom makeover could include painting an accent wall or introducing pops of color by painting a section of the wall along the bottom of the room a deeper color.

Check out Your Window Treatments

Your window treatments say a lot about your bedroom design. Therefore, when you're coming up with ideas for bedroom designs, don't discount this area of the room. Think about dramatic swags, simple valances, floor-to-ceiling panels or sheers. The possibilities are endless.

What's on Your Floor?

Your bedroom ideas must include a floor treatment. Even if you already have carpeting down, it doesn't hurt to add pops of color and pattern on your flooring with throw rugs or a larger area rug. In doing so, you'll change the entire look of the room.

Make Your Furniture Pieces Stand Out

Instead of picking out pieces of furniture that are practical, which they of course should be, select pieces that also stand out. They should reflect your taste, personality and the overall theme of the room. If you're trying to match the room with design ideas for house, consider tying the furniture into the rest of the house.

Make Creative Use of Lighting

Typically, a bedroom has one overhead light and two lamps on nightstands on either side of the bed. That seems pretty standard. Why not change things up with creative use of lighting? Add a chandelier over your reading nook, use a series of task lights over your desk area and install pendant lights on either side of the bed.

Always Choose Drama

When decorating a fun bedroom, always choose dramatic effects over those that are down-played. If you're working with a one-bedroom studio flat, you'll find this is especially true because you're using limited space. Therefore, don't be afraid to bring in dramatic pieces of art, fabric, pottery or other elements that liven up the space.
