Grady 2 is a compact two-story residence providing 1,675 square feet of heated living area, specifically engineered for narrow lots with a 34-foot width and 54-foot depth. This design maximizes its footprint by integrating a 1,220 square foot main level with a 455 square foot upper level, maintaining a total building height of 23 feet. The exterior profile is defined by a hybrid roof pitch of 10:12 and 4:12, paired with a crawl space foundation and 2x4 wall framing to ensure structural efficiency.
The main level floor plan prioritizes utility, centering on an open-concept core that links the kitchen, dining, and living zones. A dedicated home office is positioned near the entry for quiet focus, while the first-floor primary suite features a private full bathroom and direct access to the laundry room through the walk-in closet. A half bathroom is also included on this level for guest use, complementing the 1,220 square feet of primary living space.
The upper level encompasses 455 square feet, providing a secondary bedroom and a full bathroom that serve as a quiet quarters for guests. The 8-foot ceiling heights throughout both levels ensure consistent vertical proportions, contributing to the interior's efficient climate control and predictable room volume.
Outdoor utility is expanded through a 272 square foot front porch and a 340 square foot rear porch, which serves as both an outdoor living area and a deck. These exterior transitions allow for increased usable space without expanding the primary building footprint, making the configuration well-suited for rural or suburban sites where lot coverage is a consideration.
