About this plan

At just 23 feet wide and 594 square feet of heated living space, this compact single-story home is organized to provide two bedrooms and two full bathrooms within an exceptionally efficient footprint. The covered front porch introduces the home without adding unnecessary bulk, making the design particularly well suited for small lots, guest houses, accessory dwellings, or minimalist primary residences.The interior centers on an open living room connected directly to the kitchen, where a combined island and eating bar creates both workspace and casual seating. The compact circulation keeps movement short and direct, allowing the living area to feel larger than the square footage suggests. The primary bedroom includes a private bath, while the second bedroom is positioned near the additional full bathroom for flexibility. Main-floor laundry is integrated into the plan without requiring a separate utility room, preserving more space for daily living.The home can be constructed on a slab, crawl space, or basement foundation, offering flexibility for different site conditions and regional building practices. With its compact dimensions, covered porch, and efficient one-level layout, this design works well for low-maintenance living and smaller building parcels. 👉 View floor plans, photos, and pricing to get started today.
