Garage Apartment Plans

Garage apartment plans put a small home over or next to a garage. They are a common way to add a rental unit or an ADU without giving up parking; check whether your city counts the apartment as an ADU.

This collection has 5 plans from 571 to 1,386 sq ft of living space, 5 with an attached garage and 3 on two stories. Every plan is a real measured drawing: walls, doors and windows are placed, room sizes add up to the total, and you can download the PDF plan set, a DXF for AutoCAD and an IFC model at no cost. To change one, open it in Plan Chat and describe the change; the rest of the house stays as it is.

Frequently asked questions

How big are these garage apartment plans?

The plans in this collection range from 571 to 1,386 sq ft of living space (garage, porches and patios not included). The median is 900 sq ft. Each plan page lists every room with its inside dimensions.

Are the dimensions real?

Yes. Each plan is a measured model, not a picture: the room table is computed from the walls, and the same model produces the PDF, DXF, IFC and 3D files. They are concept plans, so a local designer or engineer still has to adapt them to your site and code before you build.

Can I change one of these garage apartment plans?

Open the plan in Plan Chat and describe what you want, for example "add a home office", "move the garage to the left" or "fit a 45 ft wide lot". Plan Chat changes only what you ask for and keeps every version. Changes use credits from a paid plan.
