COOL Plan Description
Garage Apartment House Plan 51858 with 1,064 Sq Ft, 2 Car Garage
Catch the easy-going vibe with this Garage Apartment house plan—Plan 51858. Clocking in at 1,064 square feet of total space, this two-story layout brings the laidback lifestyle right to your lot. Whether you're stashing surfboards or setting up a cozy living zone above your ride, this plan has that perfect blend of chill and function. You get a roomy 2 car garage on the ground floor and a bonus area up top, making it awesome for guests, a rental, or your own creative studio.
The exterior's all about those classic bungalow, country, and craftsman vibes. With a generous front porch (308 sq ft!), you'll want to grab your favorite chair and soak up the breeze. The 34' wide by 30' deep footprint slides easily onto most lots, and the 12:12 roof pitch with stick framing gives it a cool, timeless look that blends into any neighborhood.
Step inside and you'll find the garage space is more than just parking—it's a launchpad for adventure, with tall 9' ceilings and plenty of room for storage or a workshop. Head up to the second level and you're greeted by a bright bonus room, perfect for movie nights or kicking back after a day outdoors.
The bonus area upstairs is your playground—set up a guest suite, home office, or epic hangout zone. With an upper ceiling height of 8', it feels open but still cozy. There's plenty of flexibility for a kitchenette, bath, and sleeping area, so you can really make it your own.
You'll love the extra perks like the detached garage setup, which gives you privacy and separation from your main house, if you've got one. The slab foundation keeps things simple and solid, making build time a breeze.
This garage apartment plan is perfect for anyone who wants a versatile, low-maintenance spot—ideal for families with teens, weekend hobbyists, or anyone dreaming of an income-producing ADU. Breezy, compact, and totally functional, it's the ultimate accessory for living life at your own pace.
What is not included will be beam sizes, floor framing plan, roof framing plan, wall framing plans, plumbing and hvac (We do not include these for a few reasons. Our plans are sold across the country, so it's not possible for us to meet local code requirements. To maintain usability, we allow for those details to be decided by local engineers and contractors so they can meet your code requirements.).
