About our 1 Bedroom House Plans

One bedroom homes are some of the most requested plans in our catalog, and it is easy to see why. A smaller footprint means a smaller budget, often simpler permitting, and a layout that is easy to frame yourself or hand off to a small local crew. Our 1 bedroom house plans range from compact tiny cabins under 500 square feet up to larger single bedroom layouts with room for an office nook or a bigger living area.

These plans work well as a first home, a downsizing move, a backyard studio or ADU, a hunting or vacation cabin, or a short-term rental that does not need multiple bedrooms to earn its keep. Most are single-story designs, though a few include a loft for extra sleeping or storage space, always labeled 1.5 story rather than a full second floor.

Every plan includes a full PDF drawing set plus a material list, so you or your local contractor can price the build accurately. Most builds in this collection run between $130 and $220 per heated square foot, so a 600 square foot 1 bedroom home typically costs $78,000 to $132,000 before land, permits, and site work.

Are these plans ready for permits?

Our plans include the detail a professional builder needs. Local building departments sometimes require extra documents such as a site plan, energy forms, or an engineer's stamp. Check with your local office before you start.

What files do I get?

Every purchase is an instant download containing print-ready PDFs and editable CAD files, plus dimensioned floor plans, elevations, and a foundation plan.

Can I make changes to a plan?

Yes, our modification service customizes any plan in the store. Move a wall, add a garage bay, change the roofline, or adjust the layout.
