Plan Description
Small Country House Plan with 1373 Sq Ft, 3 Bed, 2 Bath and a 2 Car Garage
Small Country House Plan 81318 has 1,373 square feet of living space, 3 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms. This one-story design will fit on almost any lot because it's only 40' wide by 59' deep. The exterior is clean and cute with vertical white siding. In order to tie everything together, wooden garage doors match the board and batten shutters. Around back, we find a covered porch with vaulted ceilings, and large windows span the rear walls of the home. This modestly-sized home will fit into most any neighborhood, and it's a very affordable option.
Small Country House Plan With Front-load Garage
Small Country House Plan 81318 has a practical floor plan layout. Firstly, the home includes a 2 car garage which is front-loading. The front-load garage works with the average lot, and it's the perfect size for a three bedroom home. Extra storage is available in the bump out at the rear of the garage. Enter the home through the side door, and you will arrive just past the foyer. From here, kids will take a left to their bedrooms, and parents will head to the right for the master suite. Secondly, there is no wasted space. For example, the kitchen pantry is combined with the laundry room. Minimalists will appreciate this design because there are no unnecessary rooms to maintain. Thus, more time spent doing things that matter.
Thirdly, open living space is combined with strategically-placed storage. Small homes have so many benefits—one of which is affordability. However, the biggest con is lack of storage space. No worries in this well-designed home because it has well-placed storage. Take a look at the details throughout the floor plan: there is a coat closet in the foyer. Store your shoes and coats here to prevent clutter from entering the house. Next, the great room is spacious with a vaulted ceiling and lots of natural light. It's even better with built-in shelves. Make these into cabinets for out-of-sight storage, or display your favorite things. Last but not least, the kids have a linen closet in the hallway to store extra sheets and towels.
3 Bedroom, 2 Bath Narrow Lot Home Plan
All three bedrooms are on the left side of the house, but there is separation between the master suite and children's bedrooms. Mom and Dad have lots of privacy in the rear of the house, and they enjoy a good-sized walk-in closet and fully-appointed bathroom. The bathroom has double vanity and a shower—most of today's buyers are no longer interested in having a tub in the master bath. Bedrooms 2 and 3 share the guest bathroom which has a combination tub/shower. Each smaller bedroom has a standard-sized closet.
At only 40' wide, Small Country House Plan 81318 is perfect for narrow lot construction. Some of our clients have a property that faces the road, and it’s much longer than it is wide. This is called a “narrow lot.” Check with your building permit office to make sure that this home plan will fit on your lot. You may need to account for setbacks. For example, rules may dictate how close you can build to the sidewalk or how close you can build to the sides of the property line.
What's Included?
Exterior Elevations
In addition to the front exterior, your drawing set will include drawings of the rear and sides of your house as well. These drawings give notes on exterior materials and finishes. Particular attention is given to cornice detail, brick and stone accents, or other finish items that make your home unique.
Note: Sections and Elevations depict the default foundation, regardless of optional foundation page choices
Foundation Plan
The foundation page dimensions, concrete walls, footings, pads, posts, beams, bearing walls, and any stepped foundation information along with any retaining wall info (schematic only). A typical wall section for the home is also usually included on this page (if not, it is elsewhere in your plan set, as space allows). If your plan features a poured concrete slab rather than a basement or crawlspace, the foundation page shows footings and details for the slab, and includes plumbing locations.
Floor Plan(s)
Exterior and interior wall framing, and windows/doors are dimensioned. Room sizes are indicated and any beams, posts and structural bearing points are called out. The floorplans include an electrical legend, and electrical fittings, lights and outlets are shown. Floor Plans will also indicate cross–section details (provided on the sections page) and show any special framing details applicable to the design. Cabinet elevations are included for kitchen and bathrooms; some designs feature cabinet elevations for design–related built–ins too.
Building Sections
Building sections show changes in floor, ceiling, or roof height, and the relationship of one level to another. Our section pages also show how the stairs are calculated (if there are some) and depict roof and foundation members. We try and draw sections to show the most useful information — choosing locations where there are elements you or your contractor might need clarification on.
Note: Sections and Elevations depict the default foundation, regardless of optional foundation page choices
Roof Plan
Roof framing or truss directions are shown, slope directions are indicated and structural members are sized and called out if applicable. The gravity loads used to calculate the rafters, beams and posts are indicated , and we also show gutters, downspouts, and any roof venting required for your home.
Notes and Details Page(s)
Your home comes detailed to meet the requirements of the latest adopted version of the ‘International Residential Code’, and our notes and details pages outline all the elements applicable to the design of your home. Compliance with further standards may need to be incorporated into your plan set, depending on the requirements of your building department — these are usually done locally.
