Per Unit Meadowlawn 24634 is a 960 sq ft cottage duplex house plan designed for efficiency and investment viability. With a compact footprint of 24 ft wide by 40 ft deep, this one-story duplex is optimized for narrow lots. The structure offers two identical 480 sq ft units, each featuring 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom, providing a balanced solution for rental income, downsizing, or multi-generational living.
The interior layout focuses on an open-concept core where the keeping room transitions directly into the kitchen area to maximize the sense of space. Each unit includes a dedicated walk-in pantry, ensuring storage capacity is maintained despite the modest square footage. The first-floor primary suite in each unit acts as a private retreat, positioned to offer separation and independence for occupants.
Standing at a maximum building height of 14 ft 6 in, the structure utilizes 8-foot ceilings throughout to provide a consistent vertical profile. The 6:12 roof pitch supports a classic cottage aesthetic while ensuring effective water shedding. Every square foot of the 960 sq ft total is allocated to conditioned living space, eliminating unheated areas to improve overall site utility and investment return.
Engineered for durability and cost-effective construction, the design features a slab foundation paired with 2x4 exterior wall framing and stick roof construction. This assembly allows for straightforward site preparation and predictable maintenance cycles. The rectangular geometry of the building simplifies the foundation work, making it a viable choice for developers seeking a rapid build timeline.
