About this plan

A compact 905-square-foot footprint gives this single-story house plan a direct connection between its central living spaces and outdoor patio. Measuring 32 feet wide by 34 feet deep, the layout keeps all heated living area on one level, with one bedroom and one full bathroom. Its modest rectangular dimensions and slab foundation create a straightforward starting point for a small-home building site.

The open floor plan organizes the living room, kitchen island, and dinette within a shared interior arrangement rather than separating each activity into its own enclosed room. The island provides a central surface for meal preparation and informal interaction, while the dinette establishes a dedicated place to eat. A fireplace adds a focal point to the living area, helping define the gathering space without requiring a separate room. The single-bedroom layout keeps the private sleeping area distinct from the main shared zone.

With 905 square feet of heated space, this one-story design uses 2x4 wall framing and a slab foundation. The patio extends the living area outdoors, offering space for fresh air or casual seating. Its 32-by-34-foot footprint may suit sites where a smaller building envelope is preferred. 👉 View floor plans, photos, and pricing to get started today.
