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 very narrow lot under 30 ft wide (24 ft width design)
  • Want a low-profile home in a height-restricted neighborhood (15 ft 10 in maximum height)
  • Need a first-floor primary suite with privacy from secondary bedrooms
  • Looking for an efficient, low-maintenance design (slab foundation, minimal exterior)
  • Prefer open floor plan with good sightlines in a compact footprint
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need 4+ bedrooms—this plan has 3
  • Have a lot over 35 ft wide—design is optimized for 24 ft width
  • Want a 2+ car garage for multiple vehicles (single 1-car garage only)
  • Prefer covered outdoor living—minimal porch space (15 sq ft front only)
  • Need a two-story layout—this is single-story design

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Compact Modern Design for Narrow Lots

This charming modern house plan delivers 1,120 sq ft of heated living space in a ultra-compact 24 ft wide by 59 ft deep footprint—perfect for infill projects or height-restricted neighborhoods. The single-story layout centers on an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area with 9 ft ceilings that enhance the sense of space. A kitchen island, eating bar, and walk-in pantry maximize storage and functionality within the tight floor plan. The first-floor primary suite includes a walk-in closet and master bath with double vanity, while two additional bedrooms share a second full bathroom.

The design achieves efficiency through straightforward construction: slab foundation, 2x4 wall framing, and a 3:12 roof pitch with a maximum building height of just 15 ft 10 in. An attached 1-car front-load garage (231 sq ft) and 15 sq ft front porch complete the low-maintenance exterior profile. This plan is purpose-built for urban lots, HOA height limitations, or any situation where land width is severely constrained.

  • Ultra-narrow footprint—just 24 ft wide
  • 9-foot ceilings throughout main level
  • First-floor primary suite with walk-in closet
  • Low building height (15 ft 10 in) complies with restrictive zoning
