Plan HG-2432 (1,728 Sq Ft (36x48) 3 Bed 2 Bath Shop House (Shouse) Floor Plan with Shop (Pull-Through Shop + Split Living Core)) is an IRC R304/R310-vetted shop house (shouse) blueprint engineered around a 48'-0" × 36'-0" structural grid (1,728 sq ft base footprint, 0.75:1 Square-Bay Proportion). Configured on the Pull-Through Shop + Split Living Core topology, this layout delivers 1,009 sq ft of conditioned residential living area paired with a 720 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: 2-BAY SHOP / GARAGE (20'-0" × 36'-0", 720 sq ft), PRIMARY SUITE (10'-6" × 16'-0", 168 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (8'-6" × 16'-0", 136 sq ft), BEDROOM 3 (9'-0" × 16'-0", 144 sq ft), GREAT ROOM & DINING (17'-6" × 20'-0", 350 sq ft), BATH & MUDROOM (10'-6" × 9'-0", 95 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 168 sq ft; BEDROOM 2 at 136 sq ft; BEDROOM 3 at 144 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 168 linear feet of 6" exterior wall framing (~203 framing studs/posts) and 152 linear feet of interior partitions. The 4:12 26-gauge galvalume / painted steel gable roof requires approximately 2,040 sq ft of roofing material (24 roofing squares), while the 6" 4000-psi fiber-mesh shop slab + 4" living slab pours at an estimated 36 cubic yards of 4,000-PSI concrete.

How much does it cost to build the 48x36 1,728 Sq Ft (36x48) 3 Bed 2 Bath Shop House (Shouse) Floor Plan with Shop (Pull-Through Shop + Split Living Core) (HG-2432)?
Based on current national residential construction data for shop house (shouse) structures, the dried-in structural shell for Plan HG-2432 (1,728 sq ft base footprint) ranges from $47,500 to $61,000 ($30/sq ft baseline). A complete turnkey build—including the 36-yard concrete foundation, 152 linear feet of interior framing, MEP rough-ins for 2 bath(s), and interior finishes across 1,009 sq ft of heated space plus the 720 sq ft shop bay—ranges from $156,000 to $190,000.

What are the exact room dimensions inside this 1,009 sq ft 3-bedroom layout?
Plan HG-2432 features 7 architecturally solved spaces inside its 48' × 36' footprint: 2-BAY SHOP / GARAGE (20'-0" × 36'-0", 720 sq ft), PRIMARY SUITE (10'-6" × 16'-0", 168 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (8'-6" × 16'-0", 136 sq ft), BEDROOM 3 (9'-0" × 16'-0", 144 sq ft), GREAT ROOM & DINING (17'-6" × 20'-0", 350 sq ft), BATH & MUDROOM (10'-6" × 9'-0", 95 sq ft), KITCHEN & ISLAND (10'-6" × 11'-0", 116 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' × 36' 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" × 36'-0" structural grid (168 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).
