Narrow House Plans

These narrow lot house plans are designs that measure 45 feet or less in width. They're typically found in urban areas and cities where a narrow footprint is needed because there's room to build up or back, but not wide. However, just because these designs aren't as wide as others does not mean they skimp on features and comfort.

Features of House Plans for Narrow Lots

Many designs in this collection have deep measurements or multiple stories to compensate for the space lost in the width. There are also small house plans for narrow lots for those who are simply looking for less square footage. Some of the most popular width options include 20 ft. wide and 30 ft. wide house plans. Here are other common features of these homes:

• Tall ceilings impart a sense of spaciousness no matter how narrow the house is.
• Greater length and 2-3 stories, so all necessary rooms are still included.
• Main-floor master suites with the rest of the bedrooms built on another story.
• Second-floor laundry to help keep the most important rooms on the first level.

Narrow home plans are perfect for new couples and small families who want to live in a more urban community where their kids will likely have an easy time finding playmates. These are typically 3 bedroom house designs.

Outdoor spaces are common and should be planned when building these homes. Adding a beautiful garden to the front or back creates a great pastime for those with a green thumb.
