This house plan can be modified to fit your family’s lifestyle and your lot’s specifics.
Plan 22853R is a 2-bedroom cabin house plan on a single story, with 1085 ft² of living space under a classic gable roof whose ridge runs parallel to the street. Rustic and mountain character blends with cottage charm in this American single-family home, clad in siding over 2x6 wood exterior walls and measuring 45'1" wide and 38'0" deep. Its lake-house ease gives it the feel of a retreat, yet it is designed for everyday living in every season.
The heart of the home is an open floor plan where the family room, dining area and kitchen share one continuous space. A fireplace anchors the family room, so on winter evenings the whole living area gathers around its glow. For anyone looking for a house plan with fireplace and a generous kitchen, this layout delivers: the large kitchen centers on an island and adds a breakfast bar for quick meals and conversation with the cook. A breakfast nook offers a relaxed spot for morning coffee, and a walk-in pantry keeps supplies organized and countertops clear.
The bedrooms are clustered together, creating a quiet private wing apart from the living spaces. The master suite sits on the main floor and includes a walk-in closet, while the second bedroom works equally well for children, guests or a home office. Two full bathrooms serve the household, so mornings run smoothly even with visitors staying over. A laundry room on the main floor keeps chores close at hand, which is exactly what makes this small house plan feel so practical day to day.
Outside, the single-story house plan opens to porches on two sides. A covered front porch greets arrivals and invites slow evenings outdoors, a covered side porch adds a sheltered spot to sit in any weather, and a deck extends the living space for grilling and summer dinners. The home stands on a crawl space foundation and is also available with a slab or a walkout basement on request. The exterior walls are framed with 2x6 wood, with 2x4 framing available as an option.
