Is this the right plan for you?

Most regret comes from buying a plan that doesn't fit your life. Skim this before you decide.

Great fit if you…
  • Working with a narrow lot — 40 ft width fits standard residential constraints
  • Need a split-bedroom layout for privacy (3 bedrooms with master separate from secondary beds)
  • Want laundry convenient to the master suite (mudroom and laundry area near primary suite)
  • Seeking an efficient, traditional layout that minimizes wasted space (1,471 sq ft with clear circulation)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Have a lot narrower than 40 feet — design requires 40 ft frontage
  • Need 4+ bedrooms for a large family (only 3 bedrooms total)
  • Require a 3-car garage or significant workshop space (2-car front-load garage)
  • Want a sprawling single-story over a wide lot — this is designed for narrow width efficiency

About this plan

The Fairmont is a traditional house plan occupying 40 feet of width and 56'6" of depth, providing 1,471 square feet of heated living space within a compact, efficient footprint. This one-story design emphasizes structural clarity and organized internal layout, making it ideal for narrow or standard-sized residential lots.

The main level centers on an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area to maximize the available space. A walk-in pantry provides dedicated storage, while the laundry room and mudroom transition seamlessly between the interior and exterior. The split-bedroom layout positions the primary suite opposite the two secondary bedrooms, ensuring acoustic and visual separation. A covered rear porch of 80 square feet and front porch of 22 square feet facilitate outdoor access.

Technical specifications include a slab foundation and 2x4 exterior wall framing, topped by stick roof framing with a 6:12 roof pitch and a building height of 19'6". The 440-square-foot, 2-car front-load garage is designed to maintain the home's narrow width while providing sufficient vehicle protection and storage.
