This retirement house plan puts 1,540 square feet of living space on one level, with the garage not included. The footprint measures 54'-2" × 37'-5" and the plan has no steps inside. A front porch leads to a 6'-8" × 9'-8" foyer, which opens to the living room at 20'-3" × 12'-11". The dining area (8'-2" × 11'-7") and the kitchen (9'-0" × 16'-8") sit alongside it, so cooking, meals and sitting share one open space.
A 4'-6" wide hall, 22'-9" long, connects the main rooms to the bedrooms. The primary bedroom is 12'-5" × 12'-3", with a 7'-6" × 5'-6" walk-in closet and a 9'-4" × 7'-8" primary bath. The laundry (9'-4" × 6'-2") is close by. Bedroom 2 is 9'-4" × 11'-5" and is served by the 7'-6" × 6'-10" hall bath. The office is 9'-4" × 9'-0". The 2-car garage (20'-3" × 16'-10") enters through a 9'-0" × 6'-4" mudroom.

Who this plan suits
This plan suits retirees and downsizers who want a single-level home with two bedrooms, an office and a short route from the garage to the kitchen. It needs a lot that fits the 54'-2" × 37'-5" footprint plus setbacks and a driveway to the garage.
How this plan was made
It was generated in AI Architectures Plan Studio from this one-line brief: “Single-story accessible house, 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, no steps, wide halls, open kitchen and living, office, laundry near the primary suite, attached 2-car garage, front porch, about 1,400 sq ft of living space (garage not included).” 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 retirement house plans?
Retirement house plans are designed for comfortable living at one level, usually with no steps, wider halls, and bedrooms and laundry close together. This plan follows that approach with a 4'-6" wide hall, a primary suite with a walk-in closet, and a laundry near the primary bedroom.
What affects the lot and building cost of this plan?
The 54'-2" × 37'-5" footprint sets the minimum lot width and depth once setbacks are added. Cost depends on your region, foundation type, finishes and the attached 2-car garage and front porch. A local builder can price these against your site.
Can I change this plan by chat?
Yes. You can ask for changes in chat, such as resizing or swapping rooms, moving the garage to the other side, or fitting a narrower or wider lot. The layout is then regenerated so the rooms still connect.
How do I use the PDF, DXF and IFC files?
The PDF is for reviewing and sharing the drawings with family, lenders or a builder. The DXF opens in most CAD programs for editing, and the IFC can be imported into BIM software. Have a local professional check the plan against your site and building codes before construction.
