With a narrow 21'4" width, the 42543 Cambria Modern is engineered for urban infill lots and compact footprints. Spanning 1,555 square feet of heated living area, this two-story residence prioritizes vertical efficiency and interior organization. A 40-square-foot covered front porch provides a defined entry point, setting the stage for a well-planned, modern floor layout.
The main level encompasses 675 square feet, featuring an open-concept core that integrates a kitchen island and a dedicated keeping room. A walk-in pantry provides centralized storage, while a home office and study area offer a quiet environment for remote work. The ground floor layout includes a half bathroom and a laundry room, ensuring that the primary social zone remains uncluttered and organized for daily use.
Occupying 880 square feet, the second floor houses the two bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Each bedroom benefits from the 9-foot ceiling height found throughout both levels, which prevents a cramped feeling despite the narrow structure. This vertical clearance ensures consistent volume across the upper level, providing a sense of scale that complements the home's contemporary design aesthetic.
Structurally, the home is built on a slab foundation with 2x6 exterior wall framing to maximize thermal performance. The roof structure features a 6:12 pitch, contributing to a maximum building height of 26'2". This configuration balances the home's vertical profile with the requirements of smaller lot sizes, maintaining a clean architectural presence from the street.
A 260-square-foot front-load 1-car garage is integrated into the footprint, providing secure vehicle storage while maintaining a tight 45-foot depth. This garage placement is optimized for narrow lots where side or rear access is restricted, ensuring the plan remains viable for diverse residential applications.
