Plan HG-1446 (1,056 Sq Ft (24x44) 2 Bed 2 Bath Garage with Loft / Apartment Above Floor Plan with Apartment Above) is an IRC R304/R310-vetted garage with loft / apartment above blueprint engineered around a 44'-0" × 24'-0" structural grid (1,056 sq ft base footprint, 0.55:1 Square-Bay Proportion). Configured on the Side-Vestibule Garage + Balcony Apartment topology, this layout delivers 1,320 sq ft of conditioned residential living area paired with a 792 sq ft fire-separated workshop/garage bay and 114 sq ft of covered outdoor porch deck.
Inside the conditioned envelope, the floor plan is organized into 9 distinct architectural zones: 1-BAY GARAGE (33'-0" × 24'-0", 792 sq ft), UTILITY & GEAR (11'-0" × 11'-0", 121 sq ft), FOYER & STAIRS (11'-0" × 13'-0", 143 sq ft), PRIMARY SUITE (18'-0" × 11'-0", 198 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (15'-0" × 11'-0", 165 sq ft), FULL BATH (11'-0" × 11'-0", 121 sq ft). Plumbing rough-ins are consolidated across UTILITY & GEAR, FULL BATH, KITCHEN & ISLAND to minimize sub-slab trenching and manifold pipe runs. Sleeping quarters (PRIMARY SUITE at 198 sq ft; BEDROOM 2 at 165 sq ft) are acoustically buffered from the primary living core and positioned on exterior elevations for code-compliant egress glazing.
From a builder takeoff standpoint, the 44' clear-span width utilizes 2x6 lower walls + 14" engineered wood i-joist floor system bearing on 136 linear feet of 6" exterior wall framing (~188 framing studs/posts) and 189 linear feet of interior partitions. The 8:12 dormered gable or gambrel roof (8:12 / 4:12 shed dormers) requires approximately 1,421 sq ft of roofing material (14 roofing squares), while the 6" reinforced garage slab w/ perimeter footings & apron pours at an estimated 26 cubic yards of 4,000-PSI concrete.

How much does it cost to build the 44x24 1,056 Sq Ft (24x44) 2 Bed 2 Bath Garage with Loft / Apartment Above Floor Plan with Apartment Above (HG-1446)?
Based on current national residential construction data for garage with loft / apartment above structures, the dried-in structural shell for Plan HG-1446 (1,056 sq ft base footprint) ranges from $68,000 to $86,500 ($38/sq ft baseline). A complete turnkey build—including the 26-yard concrete foundation, 189 linear feet of interior framing, MEP rough-ins for 2 bath(s), and interior finishes across 1,320 sq ft of heated space plus the 792 sq ft shop bay—ranges from $218,000 to $265,000.

What are the exact room dimensions inside this 1,320 sq ft 2-bedroom layout?
Plan HG-1446 features 9 architecturally solved spaces inside its 44' × 24' footprint: 1-BAY GARAGE (33'-0" × 24'-0", 792 sq ft), UTILITY & GEAR (11'-0" × 11'-0", 121 sq ft), FOYER & STAIRS (11'-0" × 13'-0", 143 sq ft), PRIMARY SUITE (18'-0" × 11'-0", 198 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (15'-0" × 11'-0", 165 sq ft), FULL BATH (11'-0" × 11'-0", 121 sq ft), LIVING & DINING (19'-0" × 13'-0", 247 sq ft), KITCHEN & ISLAND (14'-0" × 13'-0", 182 sq ft), STAIR LANDING (11'-0" × 13'-0", 143 sq ft). Every habitable room meets or exceeds IRC R304 minimum area (70+ sq ft) and minimum horizontal dimension (7'-0"+) requirements.
Can this 44' × 24' floor plan be built with post-frame, red-iron steel, or 2x6 stick framing?
Yes. Because the outer envelope is engineered on an even 44'-0" × 24'-0" structural grid (136 LF perimeter) with clear-span 8:12 trusses, a local structural engineer or building kit supplier can adapt the blueprint for 2x6 Lower Walls + 14" Engineered Wood I-Joist Floor System, conventional 2x6 stick framing at 16" o.c., laminated post-frame columns at 8' o.c., or structural insulated panels (SIPs).
