800 sq ft house plans are not the biggest houses available. They’re great for individuals living by themselves. They’re also great for couples. It can still be a very reasonable amount of space to have. You won’t find 7 or 8 bedrooms in these modest creations. You can still find 800 sq ft house plans that include 2 bedrooms and 2 baths. It may be enough if you occasionally have guests over. Designs of this size usually only tend to have one bedroom. They provide a great option for low-cost housing.
Despite being on the smaller side, here are some options for you to consider.
| Features to consider | ||
| barn | Small, with a garage | shed |
| 1.5 story | Log cabin | 2-story |
| With 2 master suites | Timber frame | Small, 2 bedroom |
Have you have checked out the plans on this page and still not found anything that suits your needs? We encourage you to look in the sections that have marginally bigger homes. We have individual pages dedicated to homes of different sizes and styles. There is a dedicated section for either 1,000 or 1,400 square feet designs. Those are the usual upgrades couples choose after outgrowing the limitations of living on 800 square feet.
800 square feet designs may not be the biggest on the market. They can still be made with modern twists or perhaps the careful consideration of a ranch style. They aren’t the smallest you can find. You can quickly find yourself outgrowing the space in a lot of situations. Adding two family members along the way is the quickest way to outgrow this size.
