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 under 40 feet wide (just 35 feet wide)
  • Need 4 bedrooms plus flexible bonus space for a home office (201 sq ft bonus room above garage)
  • Want a two-story layout to maximize a compact footprint (2,472 sq ft on 35 ft × 51.5 ft)
  • Plan to add future living space (873 sq ft unfinished walkout basement)
  • Prefer mudroom and laundry on the second floor near bedrooms (second-floor laundry room)
! May not be the best fit if you…
  • Need all living on one level—this is a two-story with stairs to the second-floor bedrooms
  • Working with a very wide lot—the design is optimized for just 35 feet of width
  • Want a finished basement on day one (873 sq ft is unfinished)
  • Need garage access from inside—this plan uses a front-load 2-car garage

This plan tends to appeal to:

About this plan

Two-Story Home for Narrow Lots

This two-story home plan occupies just 2,472 sq ft across a compact 35-foot-wide footprint, making it ideal for constrained lot widths while maintaining traditional proportions. The design features a covered front porch, open-concept family room with fireplace, and a kitchen island anchoring the first floor. An additional 201 sq ft bonus room above the garage offers flexibility for a home office or media center.

The second floor includes the primary suite with walk-in closet and dedicated laundry room, plus three additional bedrooms. An 873 sq ft unfinished walkout basement provides substantial room for storage or future expansion. Outdoor living is supported by a rear deck, while a mudroom near the 2-car garage manages daily transitions.

  • 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, 1 half bath
  • 201 sq ft bonus room above garage
