Plan HG-1811 (1,080 Sq Ft (30x36) 3 Bed 2 Bath Backyard ADU / Granny Flat Floor Plan) is an IRC R304/R310-vetted backyard adu / granny flat blueprint engineered around a 36'-0" × 30'-0" structural grid (1,080 sq ft base footprint, 0.83:1 Square-Bay Proportion). Configured on the Consolidated Wet-Wall + Open Great Room topology, this layout delivers 1,080 sq ft of conditioned residential living area and 135 sq ft of covered outdoor porch deck.

Inside the conditioned envelope, the floor plan is organized into 6 distinct architectural zones: PRIMARY SUITE (13'-6" × 13'-6", 182 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (11'-0" × 13'-6", 149 sq ft), BEDROOM 3 (11'-6" × 13'-6", 155 sq ft), GREAT ROOM & DINING (22'-6" × 16'-6", 371 sq ft), BATH & LAUNDRY (13'-6" × 7'-6", 101 sq ft), KITCHEN & ISLAND (13'-6" × 9'-0", 122 sq ft). Plumbing rough-ins are consolidated across BATH & LAUNDRY, KITCHEN & ISLAND to minimize sub-slab trenching and manifold pipe runs. Sleeping quarters (PRIMARY SUITE at 182 sq ft; BEDROOM 2 at 149 sq ft; BEDROOM 3 at 155 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 36' clear-span width utilizes 2x6 dimensional lumber framing / panelized sip option bearing on 132 linear feet of 6" exterior wall framing (~156 framing studs/posts) and 114 linear feet of interior partitions. The 3:12 architectural standing-seam shed / low-slope gable requires approximately 1,247 sq ft of roofing material (15 roofing squares), while the stem wall or monolithic concrete slab-on-grade pours at an estimated 21 cubic yards of 4,000-PSI concrete.

Building costs, foundation specs, egress & CAD customization questions

How much does it cost to build the 36x30 1,080 Sq Ft (30x36) 3 Bed 2 Bath Backyard ADU / Granny Flat Floor Plan (HG-1811)?

Based on current national residential construction data for backyard adu / granny flat structures, the dried-in structural shell for Plan HG-1811 (1,080 sq ft base footprint) ranges from $49,500 to $63,000 ($48/sq ft baseline). A complete turnkey build—including the 21-yard concrete foundation, 114 linear feet of interior framing, MEP rough-ins for 2 bath(s), and interior finishes across 1,080 sq ft of heated space—ranges from $198,000 to $242,000.

What are the exact room dimensions inside this 1,080 sq ft 3-bedroom layout?

Plan HG-1811 features 6 architecturally solved spaces inside its 36' × 30' footprint: PRIMARY SUITE (13'-6" × 13'-6", 182 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (11'-0" × 13'-6", 149 sq ft), BEDROOM 3 (11'-6" × 13'-6", 155 sq ft), GREAT ROOM & DINING (22'-6" × 16'-6", 371 sq ft), BATH & LAUNDRY (13'-6" × 7'-6", 101 sq ft), KITCHEN & ISLAND (13'-6" × 9'-0", 122 sq ft). Every habitable room meets or exceeds IRC R304 minimum area (70+ sq ft) and minimum horizontal dimension (7'-0"+) requirements.

Can this 36' × 30' floor plan be built with post-frame, red-iron steel, or 2x6 stick framing?

Yes. Because the outer envelope is engineered on an even 36'-0" × 30'-0" structural grid (132 LF perimeter) with clear-span 3:12 trusses, a local structural engineer or building kit supplier can adapt the blueprint for 2x6 Dimensional Lumber Framing / Panelized SIP Option, conventional 2x6 stick framing at 16" o.c., laminated post-frame columns at 8' o.c., or structural insulated panels (SIPs).
