Single-level home designs are great for various reasons—they’re easier for aging-in-place, great if an accident ever makes it hard for you to go up and down stairs, and more straightforward for parents of little kids prone to accidents. This 928-square-foot layout includes an attached two-car garage, making it a wonderful full-time home.
The design includes a mudroom, pantry, two bathrooms, and a walk-in closet. The first-floor office is spacious and could be a second bedroom. There’s also a room above the garage that could act as another office or bedroom. Would you be able to live in this home?

Want to downsize but don’t want to commit to something under 400 square feet? The house plan below is excellent for a family because it offers three separate bedrooms and a nice open-concept kitchen and living room in the middle of the home. It even includes two bedrooms and a mudroom!
Because it’s all on one floor, it can also act as a “forever home” or a design for retirees who have frequent visits from grandkids or want to use one of the bedrooms as an office or craft room. What’s your favorite part of these plans?

If you live somewhere temperate, where the weather is almost always lovely, this would be an incredible house design! Since I live in the North, there’s no way I could manage my living and dining room perpetually outdoors, but I can imagine this could work for some in a more tropical climate. Or, perhaps, if you just want to acclimate yourself to spending more time out of doors. What are your thoughts on this design?
Technically, the space is 576 square feet, but only half of that space is actually “inside.” The bathroom, kitchen, and bedroom are walled in, while the living and dining quarters are on the covered porch. It might not be practical for most, but it’s a fun idea. What do you think?

Mallory lived in the neighborhood of this adorable stone cottage and always wondered what it was like inside. When it came on the market, she knew she had to have it! She bought the space for $170,000 and started renovating the space to match her personal style.
The kitchen is a Barbie-pink masterpiece, complete with a pink refrigerator and cool paper-wrapped countertops. She has a massive and well-organized walk-in closet and lots of mushroom elements to stick to the “Mushroom House” theme. What do you think of her handiwork?

Katharina and her husband purchased this 1960s home that was once a holiday property and hadn’t been updated since it was built. While living in it, the couple has done a fantastic job taking it from old to new, while still retaining (or adding) so much charm to the building.
There are exposed beams, a hardwood floor, a lovely full kitchen in the corner, and a bedroom with a cozy bed alcove. The special artist studio is the icing on the cake! Read Katharina’s story about her home below the photo tour.
