Why Choose One Story House Plans?

A great one story home plan keeps daily living simple, comfortable, and efficient. With no second floor to navigate, these layouts are popular for aging in place, young families, accessible living, open-concept entertaining, and easy indoor-outdoor connection.

Designed Around Convenient Single-Level Living

One story homes make everyday routines easier by placing bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, living areas, garages, and outdoor spaces on the same level. This creates better flow, fewer stairs, simpler maintenance, and a layout that can work for many stages of life.

1

Easy Accessibility

Single-level layouts reduce the need for stairs, making the home easier to navigate for children, guests, retirees, and multigenerational households.

2

Open Everyday Flow

One story designs often feature connected kitchens, dining rooms, and great rooms that support family time, entertaining, and flexible furniture layouts.

3

Indoor-Outdoor Living

Covered porches, patios, decks, and rear-facing living areas are easy to connect from the main level for relaxing, grilling, and entertaining.

4

Long-Term Comfort

One story homes are popular for forever homes, retirement living, family residences, rental properties, and builder-friendly residential projects.

Premium Plan Features Included With Every Design

Every one story home design includes CAD files and PDFs for maximum flexibility. Each plan package also includes valuable extras that make your purchase more complete, easier to adapt, and more cost-effective for construction.

CAD & PDF Files

Your plan package includes editable CAD files and printable PDFs, giving you flexibility when working with builders, engineers, designers, or local permitting offices.

Unlimited Builds

Build the same plan more than once without paying a new license fee for every project. This is especially valuable for builders, developers, and investors.

Engineering Included

Structural engineering is included to help your single-level residential plan set meet modern building expectations and support a smoother path toward construction.

These extras can save you thousands compared to competitors who charge separately for CAD files, additional builds, foundation changes, or engineering.

Frequently Asked Questions About One Story House Plans

What is a one story house plan?

A one story house plan is a residential design where the main living areas, bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen, laundry, and common spaces are arranged on one level instead of being split between multiple floors.

Are one story house plans good for aging in place?

Yes. One story homes are popular for aging in place because they reduce the need for stairs and make daily movement easier. Wider halls, accessible bathrooms, and open layouts can make them even more practical.

Are one story homes more expensive to build?

Cost depends on the size, roofline, foundation, materials, and local construction rates. One story homes may require a larger foundation and roof area than a two-story home with the same square footage, but they can offer easier access and simpler daily living.

Can I modify a one story house plan?

Yes. Because CAD files are included, your plan can be modified for layout changes, garage orientation, foundation needs, exterior style adjustments, room sizes, and local building requirements.

What styles are available for one story homes?

One story homes are available in many styles, including ranch, farmhouse, modern farmhouse, craftsman, modern, cottage, traditional, barndominium, and narrow-lot designs.

One Story Home Design Tip

When comparing one story house plans, look beyond square footage. The best single-level design should match your lot, lifestyle, storage needs, bedroom count, garage needs, outdoor living preferences, accessibility needs, and future plans.
