The Canada 2 house plan is a 1,469 sq ft single-story ranch designed with a 72 ft 7 in wide frontage and a 44 ft depth. This layout prioritizes horizontal living, featuring a covered 186 sq ft front porch that provides a direct transition into the living quarters. The structure reaches a maximum building height of 17 ft 11 in, maintaining a classic profile suitable for residential lots requiring a compact, efficient footprint.
Centrally located within the 1,469 sq ft main level is an open-concept core that integrates the kitchen, dining area, and a family room. The kitchen island anchors this space, establishing clear sightlines through the living areas. A 140 sq ft rear deck extends the interior square footage, providing a transition to outdoor space. The residence utilizes 8-foot ceiling heights throughout the floor plan to manage heating and cooling efficiency while maintaining a consistent vertical scale.
The bedroom configuration includes a first-floor master suite with an attached private bathroom, providing a dedicated wing for the primary occupants. Two additional bedrooms share access to a second full bathroom, completing the 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom layout. A first-floor laundry room is included within the floor plan to consolidate domestic tasks on the main level, supporting an age-in-place design approach.
Structural specifications for the Canada 2 include 2x4 wall framing and stick-built roof construction. The roof features an 8:12 pitch, which contributes to the traditional aesthetic and roof durability. The foundation design is supported by these framing choices, ensuring the home remains structurally sound while accommodating the specific 1,469 sq ft climate-controlled interior.
A 511 sq ft front-load 2-car garage is integrated into the primary structure, featuring an 18 ft by 7 ft door.
