House Plan 6506 has a perfectly rectangular footprint and a single gable roof—this simplicity minimizes corners and keeps the cost to build in check! Inside, you'll find 2,000 square feet with open living space across the front and all four bedrooms off a hallway in back. Straightforward designs are already efficient because they reduce surface area and have fewer irregular points that are difficult to insulate well, but if you want to save even more on utilities, select the ENERGY STAR® approved package!

House Plan 6502 is a 1,864-square-foot home with a 30' width that makes it perfect for a narrow lot—land you can often purchase at a great deal! The first level includes dining space up front, a galley kitchen, then the living room in back. The master suite is positioned behind the garage while three more bedrooms are upstairs. Stacking spaces to condense the foundation and roof reduces building costs compared to one-story layouts of the same size, so a two-story home like this is better for budgets!
