This guest house plan is a single-story layout with 700 sq ft of living space, not counting the garage, inside a footprint of 38'-5" × 26'-7". It has one bedroom, one bathroom, an open kitchen and living area, a laundry room and a covered porch. A 1-car garage is attached to the house.
The living room measures 17'-2" × 12'-7" and sits next to the kitchen at 12'-7" × 8'-8", so cooking and sitting share one open space. A 12'-9" × 4'-6" hall leads to the private rooms: the bedroom at 10'-4" × 10'-10", the bathroom at 6'-10" × 6'-8" and the laundry at 5'-6" × 6'-8". Keeping these rooms off the hall separates sleeping from the main living space. The garage is 12'-7" × 15'-7".

Who this plan suits
This plan suits a rental unit, in-law suite, or a small primary home for one or two people who want a garage and a covered porch. It needs a lot that can fit a 38'-5" × 26'-7" footprint plus driveway access to the garage and local setbacks.
How this plan was made
It was generated in AI Architectures Plan Studio from this one-line brief: “Single-story guest house with attached 1-car garage: 1 bedroom, 1 bath, open kitchen and living, laundry, covered porch, about 700 sq ft of living space.” An AI architect drafted the room program, a layout solver placed every wall and door, and the plan was checked automatically for room sizes, circulation and daylight. The same project produced the PDF sheets, layered DXF, IFC model and 3D model you can download above.
Frequently asked questions
What are guest house plans with a garage?
They are small, self-contained house plans that include a bedroom, bath, kitchen and living space, plus a covered space for a vehicle. This version has 700 sq ft of living space, 1 bedroom, 1 bath and an attached 1-car garage. The garage is not counted in the living area.
What affects the lot and building cost of this plan?
The 38'-5" × 26'-7" single-story footprint sets the minimum lot size, and local setbacks and driveway access to the garage decide where it can sit. Cost depends on your foundation type, finishes, site work, utility connections and local labor. A guest house may also face zoning rules on size and use, so check these with your local building department.
Can I change this plan by chat?
Yes. You can ask to resize or rearrange rooms, move the garage to the other side, or adjust the plan for a narrower or wider lot. Describe the change in the chat and the layout is updated, so you can review the new room sizes before you download.
How do I use the PDF, DXF and IFC files?
The PDF is for reviewing the plan and sharing it with contractors or your permit office. The DXF opens in CAD programs for drafting and editing, and the IFC opens in BIM software for 3D models. Have a licensed professional check the plan against your local codes before construction.
