Spanning 1,265 square feet of heated living space, the Chandler 2 is a single-story residence engineered for a 36-foot width and 46-foot depth footprint. This craftsman-inspired design prioritizes a compact, efficient layout that maximizes utility, featuring a distinct 86-square-foot front porch and a secondary side porch that provide two points of exterior access.
The interior architecture centers on an open-concept keeping and family room, which serves as the primary social core. This area is supported by a kitchen equipped with a dedicated walk-in pantry, ensuring clean sightlines and efficient organization for meal preparation. The floor plan utilizes a split-bedroom configuration, placing the primary suite in a private wing away from the two secondary bedrooms to reduce noise transfer and increase personal privacy.
With a maximum building height of 19 feet 3 inches, the home maintains a low-profile exterior while utilizing 8-foot ceilings to create a consistent vertical volume throughout the main level. The roof assembly features a 9:12 pitch, which contributes to the traditional aesthetic while providing necessary attic clearance. This plan is constructed on a footprint that includes 134 square feet of total porch area, effectively expanding the usable living square footage during warmer months.
Practical elements are integrated into the floor plan, such as a dedicated first-floor laundry room and 48 square feet of built-in storage to maintain a clutter-free environment. The structural design avoids wasted circulation space, focusing instead on a direct relationship between the keeping room and the kitchen. This model is engineered for efficiency, making it a viable solution for narrow lots or smaller building sites that require a high density of features within a modest total area.
