Plan HG-2897 (864 Sq Ft (24×36) 2 Bed, 1 Bath Ranch Floor Plan with Shop) is an IRC R304/R310-vetted single-story ranch blueprint engineered around a 36'-0" × 24'-0" structural grid (864 sq ft base footprint, 0.67:1 Square-Bay Proportion). Configured on the Attached Shop + Mudroom Entry topology, this layout delivers 564 sq ft of conditioned residential living area paired with a 300 sq ft fire-separated workshop/garage bay and 188 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 (12'-6" × 24'-0", 300 sq ft), PRIMARY SUITE (12'-0" × 10'-6", 126 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (11'-6" × 10'-6", 121 sq ft), GREAT ROOM & DINING (14'-0" × 13'-6", 189 sq ft), BATH & MUDROOM (9'-6" × 6'-0", 57 sq ft), KITCHEN & ISLAND (9'-6" × 7'-6", 71 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 126 sq ft; BEDROOM 2 at 121 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 conventional stick frame w/ prefabricated roof trusses bearing on 120 linear feet of 6" exterior wall framing (~150 framing studs/posts) and 102 linear feet of interior partitions. The 6:12 gable roof w/ covered front porch requires approximately 1,082 sq ft of roofing material (13 roofing squares), while the slab-on-grade, crawlspace, or full basement option pours at an estimated 20 cubic yards of 4,000-PSI concrete.

Frequently Asked Questions • Plan HG-2897

Building costs, foundation specs, egress & CAD customization questions

How much does it cost to build the 36x24 864 Sq Ft (24×36) 2 Bed, 1 Bath Ranch Floor Plan with Shop (HG-2897)?

Based on current national residential construction data for single-story ranch structures, the dried-in structural shell for Plan HG-2897 (864 sq ft base footprint) ranges from $33,000 to $42,000 ($42/sq ft baseline). A complete turnkey build—including the 20-yard concrete foundation, 102 linear feet of interior framing, MEP rough-ins for 1 bath(s), and interior finishes across 564 sq ft of heated space plus the 300 sq ft shop bay—ranges from $105,000 to $128,000. 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 564 sq ft 2-bedroom layout?

Plan HG-2897 features 6 architecturally solved spaces inside its 36' × 24' footprint: 1-BAY SHOP / GARAGE (12'-6" × 24'-0", 300 sq ft), PRIMARY SUITE (12'-0" × 10'-6", 126 sq ft), BEDROOM 2 (11'-6" × 10'-6", 121 sq ft), GREAT ROOM & DINING (14'-0" × 13'-6", 189 sq ft), BATH & MUDROOM (9'-6" × 6'-0", 57 sq ft), KITCHEN & ISLAND (9'-6" × 7'-6", 71 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' × 24' 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" × 24'-0" structural grid (120 LF perimeter) with clear-span 6:12 trusses, a local structural engineer or building kit supplier can adapt the blueprint for 2x6 Conventional Stick Frame w/ Prefabricated Roof Trusses, conventional 2x6 stick framing at 16" o.c., laminated post-frame columns at 8' o.c., or structural insulated panels (SIPs).
