Spanning 1,200 square feet of heated living area, the Cole 2 house plan presents a compact, efficient ranch-style layout tailored for 60-foot wide lots. This single-level residence prioritizes a straightforward footprint with a total depth of 43 feet 4 inches, ensuring ease of construction and maintenance. The exterior is defined by a classic 7:12 roof pitch and a maximum building height of 19 feet 8 inches, which provides a clean, traditional profile suitable for various site conditions.
The interior architecture centers on an open-concept core that integrates the main living zone, kitchen, and dining area to maximize usable square footage. This configuration eliminates unnecessary circulation space, allowing for three bedrooms and two full bathrooms within the 1,200-square-foot envelope. The 8-foot ceiling height throughout the main floor maintains a consistent scale, while the inclusion of walk-in closets in the primary suite enhances storage capacity.
Outdoor accessibility is integrated via a 96-square-foot covered front porch and a 112-square-foot rear deck. These transitions connect the interior living zones to the exterior, providing additional usable space for daily activities. The layout is designed for logical flow between the shared living areas and the private bedroom wing, effectively separating social and quiet zones within the home.
A 480-square-foot front-load, two-car garage is positioned to allow for direct access into the home, providing practical utility and protection for vehicles. The structural design emphasizes a simple, rectangular form that balances the garage footprint with the living area, optimizing the overall lot coverage. This plan is engineered for those seeking a manageable, efficient living environment without the complexity of multi-story framing.
