COST EFFICIENT CHALET Compact, energy efficient and cost effective, this cozy cottage is a good choice for a mountain cabin, first home or even a forever home. Regardless of choice, efficiency has been designed into every square inch of this well conceived home plan. The foot print is extremely compact measuring only 27’ wide and 47’ deep so land space needed is minimal and it can be built on extremely narrow suburban lots. The efficient use of space allows for maximum room sizes in the very small 1330 sq. ft. of heated area. All living spaces have expansive views by the use of uninterrupted glass in the casement windows and patio doors. The main suite has a connecting bath featuring a corner shower, built-in linen cabinet and a very large walk-in closet. The main level living spaces are totally open and feature exposed wood finished beams. The kitchen is fully appointed and features a 42” high raised eating bar and convenient access to the laundry area compete with a large pantry. An open dining area maximizes the number of seating for those entertaining events. A centrally located stair ascends to the upper level and even the stairwell space is maximized with built-in book shelves. Two secondary upstairs bedrooms with a centrally located bath round out the living space but outdoor balconies for both bedrooms make them more than just sleeping rooms.

FAQs

Are designs on Houseplans ready to submit to my building department for permitting?

It depends on where you're building. Our plans contain enough information for a professional builder to construct your home, but your local government may require additional information before permitting. We strongly advise that you talk with your builder before you get started. If you are building for yourself, we recommend visiting your local building department to start your diligence. Read more here.

Can I make changes to a plan?

Absolutely! Our modification service allows you to customize almost anything - whether it's adding an extra garage bay, adjusting square footage, changing the roof pitch, or more, the plan modification service is a great value and can be completed quickly. Additionally, if you purchase an electronic plan set (PDF or CAD), you may have the option to make changes locally. CAD files offer the most flexibility for custom edits. Just let us know what you're thinking, and we’ll provide an estimate and timeframe to get started. Learn more here.

How much does a house cost to build?

Find out! Build costs vary based on the size of the home, materials used, and local rates for goods and labor. Our Cost to Build report is a great way to get some basic costs dialed in before you order your plans. Just plug in your postal code, select your desired construction quality, and we'll calculate for you.
