Small house plans under 1,100 sq ft pack smart layouts into a compact footprint. These small home designs work well on narrow lots and keep construction and utility costs low — without cutting corners on livability.
What to Expect from Small House Floor Plans Under 1,100 Sq Ft
Plans in this range typically include 1 to 3 bedrooms and 1 to 2 bathrooms. Most use an open floor plan that combines the kitchen, dining, and living areas into a single shared space, which makes the home feel larger than the square footage suggests. Storage is handled through built-in closets, pantries, and sometimes attic or crawlspace access.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most plans in this range include 2 bedrooms, though some offer 3 by using a more compact bedroom layout. One-bedroom plans are also available for those who prefer more open living space.
The majority are single-story ranch or cottage designs, which keeps construction simple and eliminates stairs. A few include a loft or partial second level for extra flexibility.
These plans have a smaller building footprint, so they work on lots as narrow as 40 to 50 feet wide. Always check the plan's width and depth dimensions against your lot and local setback requirements.
