Garage Apartment House Plan 30040 with 746 Sq Ft, 2 Bed, 1 Bath, 2 Car Garage
Dude, check out this rad Garage Apartment House Plan 30040—where contemporary and modern vibes collide for a super chill living experience. With 746 square feet of smartly designed space, this pad brings you 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and a sweet 2 car drive-under garage, all stacked up for the ultimate compact lifestyle.
From the curb, this place rocks a clean, modern exterior with simple lines and a streamlined roofline that says, "Yeah, I'm cool and low-maintenance." The elevation is all about that contemporary appeal, so whether you're parking your ride or hanging out on the drive, you'll look legit.
Head inside, and the open-concept upper-level living area is where it's at. Kick back in a bright, breezy great room that flows right into the kitchen—perfect for late-night hangs or morning coffee. Tall 8' ceilings keep everything feeling open, and with the living area directly above your garage, it's like you've got a private loft in the sky.
The primary bedroom keeps things cozy and functional, with easy access to the full bath. Closet space is dialed in for your everyday essentials—no wasted corners here. The second bedroom is ideal for a guest, your best bro, or even a home office if you need a creative zone.
This plan's got those bonus perks, too—laundry is conveniently tucked in, and the garage below offers plenty of storage for your boards, bikes, or whatever gear you're stashing. The stem wall slab foundation keeps construction simple and sturdy, so you can build with confidence.
Outdoor living is all about making use of that driveway and garage area—think grilling out front, or just kicking back after a long day. This garage apartment plan is totally perfect for downsizers, first-timers, or anyone who wants a secondary living space that's equal parts functional and stylish.
So whether you're looking for a modern accessory dwelling unit, a rental, or a sweet guest spot, this contemporary garage apartment house plan delivers the laidback lifestyle you crave, all in a compact and efficient package!

Previous Q & A
Previous Questions and Answers
A: Hello, These plans are not drawn to local building codes and states like New Jersey and Maryland have very strict code requirements. Customers in those states can purchase this plan if they understand that the plans will need to be stamped by a local architect / engineer which we cannot do. Have a Great Day!
A: Yes, it does. Thanks
A: The plan calls for R-21 batt insulation since the walls are 2x6.
A: Both options are possible with the proper structural design. If floor trusses are used for a clear span, they will be approximately 25" deep and that will make the overall building about 15" taller than the design currently shows.
A: Floor Joists are 2x10's at 16 inches o.c. We use manufactured trusses for the roof framing. Thanks!
A: Right at 22 feet from top of slab.
Common Questions:
A: Yes you can! Please click the "Modifications" tab above to get more information.
A: The national average for a house is running right at $125.00 per SF. You can get more detailed information by clicking the Cost-To-Build tab above. Sorry, but we cannot give cost estimates for garage, multifamily or project plans.
