When it comes to small homes that don’t feel like a compromise on quality or livability, many homeowners turn to house plans under 2,000 square feet. By keeping the home's overall size under 2000 square feet, owners can significantly reduce the overall cost of the build because of the considerably smaller amount of materials that go into building such a home.

When it comes to small homes that don’t feel like a compromise on quality or livability, many homeowners turn to house plans under 2,000 square feet. By keeping the home's overall size under 2000 square feet, owners can significantly reduce the overall cost of the build because of the considerably smaller amount of materials that go into building such a home.

Benefits of Building Single-Story Homes of this Size

One-story house plans under 2000 square feet result in lower construction costs than two-story homes due to the differences in designs and the more significant number of building options available.  Because single-story houses do not have to consider load-bearing structures to support additional floors, homeowners can make various modifications to suit their personal styles and needs. These include knocking down walls to create an open floor plan living space or shifting the bedrooms to the rear of the building for greater privacy, to name a couple.

Another significant benefit of these houses is that they can assume virtually any style, ranging from traditional Craftsman or European home designs to more contemporary and modern floor plan layouts or even a country style home plan. Smaller single-level living house plans are common choices for smaller families looking to build a home without breaking the bank or older couples looking to downsize after their children grow up and move out.

Because everything is on the same level, owners never have to worry about being too separated from other occupants—such as young children needing supervision—or running up and down stairs to access bedrooms or laundry rooms.
