SAVED!
Need a tiny or small two-bedroom house plan? Below you'll find layouts with 1-2 baths, 1-2 stories, modern open-concept floor plans, cute curb appeal, and more. Each plan is under 1,500 sq. ft.
Anyone building on a budget will likely appreciate these small, yet spacious designs. Homeowners seeking to build a secondary/vacation house might also enjoy exploring these layouts.
Large families will almost certainly need a house plan that features more bedrooms and more square footage.
Usually, the smaller the home is, the cheaper it is to build. However, many things factor in to cost to build, like your building location, material choices, and the market.

You should also discuss your plan with your builder.
Slab foundation tends to be the cheapest option. On the other hand, if you build a basement, you could potentially rent it out to cover the mortgage. Usually basements are best for homeowners who desire a rec room, extra storage, or an extra area in which to entertain guests. Note that if you're building on a sloping lot, consider a walkout basement, which can help maximize space. Be sure to ask your builder what foundation is best for your area.
