41x22 Modern Cabin House Plan with Loft, 2 Bed, 1,228 Sq Ft

What is this cabin house plan?

This is a complete construction plan set for a 41x22 modern cabin with 1,228 square feet of heated living space across 1.5 stories. The design pairs a steep gable roof with a floor to ceiling glass gable wall, giving a compact footprint the light and volume of a much larger home. It works equally well as a full time small home, a vacation cabin, a short term rental, or a guest house.

How is the space laid out?

The 902 sq ft ground floor centers on an open kitchen and living area, each 18'9" x 10'7", sharing the glazed gable wall. A ground floor bedroom at 11'7" x 10'9", a full bathroom with tub at 11'7" x 5'6", and a 7'8" x 4'1" walk-in closet complete the main level. Upstairs, the 326 sq ft loft holds a 15'0" x 12'4" loft bedroom with three built-in kneewall storage areas. A 6 ft deep covered porch runs the full 22 ft width of the front.

What do you get with your purchase?

Every purchase includes a complete working drawing set as a print ready PDF, editable CAD files, a complete itemized material list, and a reverse plan. The drawings cover floor plans, a slab plan showing load bearing walls, roof and ceiling outlines, two building sections, all four elevations, a door and window schedule with installation steps, kitchen and bath details, rafter and insulation details for five roof assemblies, cedar rain screen siding details, foundation and footing details, framing details, and full electrical and plumbing plans for both floors. Everything arrives as an instant digital download after checkout.

What are the specifications?

The cabin measures 41 ft wide by 22 ft deep and stands 23 ft tall at the roof peak. Construction is wood stud framing with insulated walls on a slab foundation. Areas are calculated to the ANSI Z765 standard: 902 sq ft ground floor, 326 sq ft loft, 1,228 sq ft total heated. Plans are drawn to 2021/2022 IRC based California residential codes with plumbing per UPC and wind loads per ASCE 7-16.
