Contemporary Narrow-Lot 2-Story Home Plan with Clean Modern Design
This contemporary two-story home plan offers a refined modern aesthetic paired with efficient space planning, making it an ideal solution for narrow urban and suburban lots. With approximately 1,200 square feet of heated living space, this design delivers comfortable everyday living while maintaining a compact footprint and strong architectural presence.
The home’s clean geometry, asymmetrical mono-slope roof, and balanced window placement reflect modern architectural principles focused on simplicity, efficiency, and timeless appeal. Whether built as a primary residence, rental property, or investment home, this plan adapts easily to a wide range of settings.
Modern Exterior Architecture
The exterior is defined by horizontal lap siding, reinforcing the home’s linear composition and contemporary character. This material choice offers durability, low maintenance, and broad regional acceptance while contributing to a clean, modern curb appeal.
- Horizontal lap siding for modern visual continuity
- Asymmetrical mono-slope roofline
- Minimal trim detailing for cost efficiency
- Black-framed windows for strong contrast
The restrained exterior palette ensures the home remains stylish for decades without relying on trends that may date the design.
Main Level Living Space
The main floor is designed around an open-concept living arrangement that maximizes usable space and natural light. Large front-facing windows bring daylight deep into the interior, enhancing the sense of openness and connection to the outdoors.
- Open living and dining area

- Flexible furniture layout options
Upper-Level Bedrooms
The second floor includes two well-proportioned bedrooms designed to support flexible living needs. These spaces can easily function as a primary bedroom, guest room, or home office depending on lifestyle requirements.

- Secondary bedroom ideal for guests or office use
- Efficient modern bathroom design
- Optional stacked laundry configuration
Energy-Efficient Design
The compact rectangular footprint minimizes thermal loss while simplifying construction. The plan readily supports energy-efficient upgrades such as high-performance insulation, low-E windows, and modern HVAC systems.
