What Is a Narrow Lot House Plan?
Narrow lot house plans are home designs perfect for narrower home sites. Many neighborhoods today are platted for 50-foot-wide lots which require 5-foot side yard setbacks, resulting in a maximum home width of 40-foot. Additionally, many older homes in need of replacement were built on narrower lots. Or, perhaps you simply prefer a narrower home in order to enjoy a more spacious yard.
At Design Basics, we offer narrow lot floor plans in a variety of sizes, levels, and design styles. All of our plans come with customization options so you’re able to include all of your necessities!
Why Are People Choosing Narrow Lot Plans?
Narrow lot plans often provide a more affordable housing option for those that live in highly populated cities and sub-divisions where narrower property lots are common. Whether you want to build a home that’s close to your employer or want to live in your city’s trendiest neighborhood, a narrow lot home can be a great solution.
Design Basics is dedicated to helping you build the narrow lot home of your dreams in the exact style and size that you want!
Characteristics of a Narrow Lot House Plan
Our selection of narrow lot houses is available in a variety of sizes and styles, so you can choose one that fits your needs best. Here are a few features you can expect from a narrow lot floor plan!
Flexibility
Many narrow homes maximize space by building up or down, not out. You’ll often find that these homes have two stories above grade or a basement, so there’s still plenty of room for living and entertaining. Consider also whether the included optional layouts for kitchens, bathrooms, and other areas shown with some of these designs work well for you.
Front-Loading Garages
Since these homes have a smaller width, if there is an attached garage, it most often is designed to enter from the front, making it easy to park your vehicle without having to make any tight turns.
Private Outdoor Spaces
Narrow lot homes are typically close to the other buildings surrounding them. However, this doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice your privacy. These homes are often designed to provide front porch and/or rear deck privacy for your outdoor living enjoyment!
