Meet the Barndominium, a 2-bedroom, 800-square-foot small home that includes a garage space, bathroom, and open-concept living/kitchen area. You can purchase plans for this design on Etsy from Karmim House Plans.

The actual “house” portion is about 416 square feet, while the garage add-on is another 200 square feet. Since the upstairs bedroom is a full standing height, the plans count that 200 square feet in the total square footage of the home. What do you think of this design?

These small house plans would be perfect for anyone reaching retirement age. The single-level floor plan features a studio-style layout with the bedroom and living room dominating the space. There’s a comfortable L-shaped kitchen, a couple of closets, and a bathroom with a walk-in shower.

At 560 square feet, it’s just a bit more spacious than a “tiny home” and the added carport makes getting indoors in inclement weather that much easier.  Add a jacuzzi underneath the outside overhang! The plans for this are sold by The Small House Catalog.

While it can be difficult to find municipalities that allow for foundation homes under 400 square feet (our usual threshold for “tiny”), bumping up the square footage a bit can allow you to have a littler home on land.

The “Sno” plans from Small House Catalog looks like a perfect cabin home for a small family. At 600 sq. ft., the home includes a downstairs bedroom for parents, and a split loft where kids could have free reign.

The exterior has a lovely Scandinavian vibe, while inside it feels sleek and modern. Check out the renderings of the home below, and purchase your own plans here.
