Plan HG-1881 (1,320 Sq Ft (30x44) 2 Bed 2 Bath Shop House (Shouse) Floor Plan with Shop) is an IRC R304/R310-vetted shop house (shouse) blueprint engineered around a 44'-0" × 30'-0" structural grid (1,320 sq ft base footprint, 0.68:1 Square-Bay Proportion). Configured on the Side-Bay Shop + Wet-Core Mudroom Buffer topology, this layout delivers 765 sq ft of conditioned residential living area paired with a 555 sq ft fire-separated workshop/garage bay and 204 sq ft of covered outdoor porch deck.

Inside the conditioned envelope, the floor plan is organized into 6 distinct architectural zones: 1-BAY SHOP / GARAGE (18'-6" × 30'-0", 555 sq ft), PRIMARY SUITE (13'-6" × 13'-0", 176 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (12'-0" × 13'-0", 156 sq ft), GREAT ROOM & DINING (16'-0" × 17'-0", 272 sq ft), BATH & MUDROOM (9'-6" × 7'-6", 71 sq ft), KITCHEN & ISLAND (9'-6" × 9'-6", 90 sq ft). Plumbing rough-ins are consolidated across BATH & MUDROOM, KITCHEN & ISLAND to minimize sub-slab trenching and manifold pipe runs. Sleeping quarters (PRIMARY SUITE at 176 sq ft; BEDROOM 2 at 156 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 red-iron i-beam or heavy post-frame clear-span (14'–16' eave) bearing on 148 linear feet of 6" exterior wall framing (~174 framing studs/posts) and 122 linear feet of interior partitions. The 4:12 26-gauge galvalume / painted steel gable roof requires approximately 1,558 sq ft of roofing material (18 roofing squares), while the 6" 4000-psi fiber-mesh shop slab + 4" living slab pours at an estimated 28 cubic yards of 4,000-PSI concrete.

Building costs, foundation specs, egress & CAD customization questions

How much does it cost to build the 44x30 1,320 Sq Ft (30x44) 2 Bed 2 Bath Shop House (Shouse) Floor Plan with Shop (HG-1881)?

Based on current national residential construction data for shop house (shouse) structures, the dried-in structural shell for Plan HG-1881 (1,320 sq ft base footprint) ranges from $37,000 to $47,500 ($30/sq ft baseline). A complete turnkey build—including the 28-yard concrete foundation, 122 linear feet of interior framing, MEP rough-ins for 2 bath(s), and interior finishes across 765 sq ft of heated space plus the 555 sq ft shop bay—ranges from $120,000 to $146,000. Use the interactive Regional Cost Multiplier on this page to adjust for your local labor market and owner-builder sweat equity.

What are the exact room dimensions inside this 765 sq ft 2-bedroom layout?

Plan HG-1881 features 6 architecturally solved spaces inside its 44' × 30' footprint: 1-BAY SHOP / GARAGE (18'-6" × 30'-0", 555 sq ft), PRIMARY SUITE (13'-6" × 13'-0", 176 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (12'-0" × 13'-0", 156 sq ft), GREAT ROOM & DINING (16'-0" × 17'-0", 272 sq ft), BATH & MUDROOM (9'-6" × 7'-6", 71 sq ft), KITCHEN & ISLAND (9'-6" × 9'-6", 90 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' × 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 44'-0" × 30'-0" structural grid (148 LF perimeter) with clear-span 4:12 trusses, a local structural engineer or building kit supplier can adapt the blueprint for Red-Iron I-Beam or Heavy Post-Frame Clear-Span (14'–16' Eave), conventional 2x6 stick framing at 16" o.c., laminated post-frame columns at 8' o.c., or structural insulated panels (SIPs).
