Plan HG-2830 (880 Sq Ft (22×40) 2 Bed, 2 Bath Shop House Floor Plan) is an IRC R304/R310-vetted shop house (shouse) blueprint engineered around a 40'-0" × 22'-0" structural grid (880 sq ft base footprint, 0.55:1 Square-Bay Proportion). Configured on the Attached Shop + Mudroom Entry topology, this layout delivers 507 sq ft of conditioned residential living area paired with a 374 sq ft fire-separated workshop/garage bay and 184 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 (17'-0" × 22'-0", 374 sq ft), PRIMARY SUITE (12'-0" × 9'-6", 114 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (11'-0" × 9'-6", 105 sq ft), GREAT ROOM & DINING (13'-6" × 12'-6", 169 sq ft), BATH & MUDROOM (9'-6" × 5'-6", 52 sq ft), KITCHEN & ISLAND (9'-6" × 7'-0", 67 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 114 sq ft; BEDROOM 2 at 105 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 40' clear-span width utilizes red-iron i-beam or heavy post-frame clear-span (14'–16' eave) bearing on 124 linear feet of 6" exterior wall framing (~153 framing studs/posts) and 100 linear feet of interior partitions. The 4:12 26-gauge galvalume / painted steel gable roof requires approximately 1,039 sq ft of roofing material (13 roofing squares), while the 6" 4000-psi fiber-mesh shop slab + 4" living slab pours at an estimated 21 cubic yards of 4,000-PSI concrete.

How much does it cost to build the 40x22 880 Sq Ft (22×40) 2 Bed, 2 Bath Shop House Floor Plan (HG-2830)?
Based on current national residential construction data for shop house (shouse) structures, the dried-in structural shell for Plan HG-2830 (880 sq ft base footprint) ranges from $25,500 to $33,000 ($30/sq ft baseline). A complete turnkey build—including the 21-yard concrete foundation, 100 linear feet of interior framing, MEP rough-ins for 2 bath(s), and interior finishes across 507 sq ft of heated space plus the 374 sq ft shop bay—ranges from $82,000 to $99,000.

What are the exact room dimensions inside this 507 sq ft 2-bedroom layout?
Plan HG-2830 features 6 architecturally solved spaces inside its 40' × 22' footprint: 1-BAY SHOP / GARAGE (17'-0" × 22'-0", 374 sq ft), PRIMARY SUITE (12'-0" × 9'-6", 114 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (11'-0" × 9'-6", 105 sq ft), GREAT ROOM & DINING (13'-6" × 12'-6", 169 sq ft), BATH & MUDROOM (9'-6" × 5'-6", 52 sq ft), KITCHEN & ISLAND (9'-6" × 7'-0", 67 sq ft). Every habitable room meets or exceeds IRC R304 minimum area (70+ sq ft) and minimum horizontal dimension (7'-0"+) requirements.
Can this 40' × 22' floor plan be built with post-frame, red-iron steel, or 2x6 stick framing?
Yes. Because the outer envelope is engineered on an even 40'-0" × 22'-0" structural grid (124 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).
