Plan HG-2179 (1,536 Sq Ft (32x48) 3 Bed 2 Bath Shop House (Shouse) Floor Plan with Shop) is an IRC R304/R310-vetted shop house (shouse) blueprint engineered around a 48'-0" × 32'-0" structural grid (1,536 sq ft base footprint, 0.67:1 Square-Bay Proportion). Configured on the Side-Bay Shop + Wet-Core Mudroom Buffer topology, this layout delivers 896 sq ft of conditioned residential living area paired with a 640 sq ft fire-separated workshop/garage bay and 224 sq ft of covered outdoor porch deck.

Inside the conditioned envelope, the floor plan is organized into 7 distinct architectural zones: 1-BAY SHOP / GARAGE (20'-0" × 32'-0", 640 sq ft), PRIMARY SUITE (10'-6" × 14'-0", 147 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (8'-6" × 14'-0", 119 sq ft), BEDROOM 3 (9'-0" × 14'-0", 126 sq ft), GREAT ROOM & DINING (17'-6" × 18'-0", 315 sq ft), BATH & MUDROOM (10'-6" × 8'-0", 84 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 147 sq ft; BEDROOM 2 at 119 sq ft; BEDROOM 3 at 126 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 48' clear-span width utilizes red-iron i-beam or heavy post-frame clear-span (14'–16' eave) bearing on 160 linear feet of 6" exterior wall framing (~192 framing studs/posts) and 141 linear feet of interior partitions. The 4:12 26-gauge galvalume / painted steel gable roof requires approximately 1,813 sq ft of roofing material (21 roofing squares), while the 6" 4000-psi fiber-mesh shop slab + 4" living slab pours at an estimated 32 cubic yards of 4,000-PSI concrete.

How much does it cost to build the 48x32 1,536 Sq Ft (32x48) 3 Bed 2 Bath Shop House (Shouse) Floor Plan with Shop (HG-2179)?

Based on current national residential construction data for shop house (shouse) structures, the dried-in structural shell for Plan HG-2179 (1,536 sq ft base footprint) ranges from $43,000 to $55,000 ($30/sq ft baseline). A complete turnkey build—including the 32-yard concrete foundation, 141 linear feet of interior framing, MEP rough-ins for 2 bath(s), and interior finishes across 896 sq ft of heated space plus the 640 sq ft shop bay—ranges from $140,000 to $170,000. 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 896 sq ft 3-bedroom layout?

Plan HG-2179 features 7 architecturally solved spaces inside its 48' × 32' footprint: 1-BAY SHOP / GARAGE (20'-0" × 32'-0", 640 sq ft), PRIMARY SUITE (10'-6" × 14'-0", 147 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (8'-6" × 14'-0", 119 sq ft), BEDROOM 3 (9'-0" × 14'-0", 126 sq ft), GREAT ROOM & DINING (17'-6" × 18'-0", 315 sq ft), BATH & MUDROOM (10'-6" × 8'-0", 84 sq ft), KITCHEN & ISLAND (10'-6" × 10'-0", 105 sq ft). Every habitable room meets or exceeds IRC R304 minimum area (70+ sq ft) and minimum horizontal dimension (7'-0"+) requirements.

Can this 48' × 32' floor plan be built with post-frame, red-iron steel, or 2x6 stick framing?

Yes. Because the outer envelope is engineered on an even 48'-0" × 32'-0" structural grid (160 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).
