Smaller, Smarter Homes
|
A small house does not need to be thought of as having less quality than a large house. Too often, large houses are considered before a compact house design is chosen. Whether you have a small family, you live alone, or you are on a set budget, smaller homes are a wise choice to consider.---
So consider this: these Smaller, Smarter Home Plans were selected because they are conservative with size but they also display an intelligent way to purchase a quality small home.
When purchasing any home, you must take several things into account. When purchasing a smaller home plan think about the use of space within the house. When a design is well thought out and prepared, there is a flow of spaces which allows you to make sense of all areas in the house. Therefore, the house doesn't need to be overly grand in stature, it needs to be grand in design. In this matter less is more.
A well planned design appears to be larger than the floor plan displays with open spaces and plenty of storage space to eliminate clutter. These designs also use living spaces outdoors to bring the home to the outside as well. And most importantly, a well planned design fits your lifestyle and fits your needs.
Each of the small house plans we offer are well laid out designs, but the following plans stood above the rest. Their design is proven, popular, and well thought out to provide the very best in small home plans.

This is a great example of how a smart design can make a great home experience. This home uses wide open spaces in the central living room and the equally open and spacious kitchen and dining area. By providing such large open rooms, the house seems larger than it actually is, while being much more affordable to build than a larger house. This house features three bedrooms and one full bathroom and includes plans for a basement type foundation. This is definitely a good choice for someone searching for an economical choice with quality in mind as well.

This home is deceptively spacious in that it seems much larger than the 1280 square feet it claims. It features a sunken in entry which leads to the large great room which features a fireplace in the center of the room. The great room can be used as a interconnected living room and dining room. The kitchen is spacious and opens outside to the covered rear balcony. There are two bedrooms which share one bathroom and an independent laundry room. The house also features plans for a one car garage. The openness of this house and its space-conscious layout provide for a larger looking house without the larger price tag.
