Compact 1,618 Sq Ft Two-Story House Plan with Second-Floor Master Suite

The second-floor master suite gives this 1,618 sq ft two-story house plan its defining vertical arrangement, placing the primary bedroom above the 774 sq ft main level. Within the 50′-wide by 29′-deep footprint, the 844 sq ft upper floor creates a compact two-level composition beneath a 28′ building height, with the covered front porch marking the main entry.

On the first floor, the open floor plan connects the kitchen and dining area with the family room, while the kitchen island provides a central working and gathering point. A fireplace anchors the family room, and the powder room serves the main living level. Upstairs, the second-floor master suite includes a private master bath, while the laundry remains on the same level as the bedrooms for convenient circulation.

The 2-car garage complements the compact footprint and provides enclosed vehicle storage. Outdoor space is defined by the covered front porch, while foundation options include slab, crawl space, basement, or walkout basement. The structure uses 2x4 wall framing across both levels. 👉 View floor plans, photos, and pricing to get started today.
