This small modern two story plan has 1,460 sq ft of living space, not counting the garage, on a compact 36'-5" × 25'-3" footprint. The ground floor holds the shared rooms: a 13'-7" × 13'-7" living room, a 13'-1" × 9'-4" kitchen, and a 10'-0" × 9'-4" dining area. A 3'-10" × 7'-6" powder room keeps guests off the stairs.
You enter through a 9'-5" × 5'-9" foyer, and a 5'-2" × 7'-6" mudroom serves the 10'-8" × 17'-6" attached garage. Upstairs, the stair lands at a 7'-2" × 11'-7" hall that serves all three bedrooms, the 8'-4" × 5'-6" hall bathroom, and a 7'-2" × 4'-9" laundry. The primary bedroom is 18'-2" × 8'-0" with a 5'-1" × 8'-4" private bath. Bedrooms 2 and 3 measure 12'-9" × 8'-4" and 8'-4" × 11'-7".

Who this plan suits
This plan suits small households or families who want three bedrooms and a separate laundry on one upper floor, with open living below. It needs a lot that fits the 36'-5" × 25'-3" footprint plus setbacks and a driveway to the single garage.
How this plan was made
It was generated in AI Architectures Plan Studio from this one-line brief: “Two-story modern house, 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, ground floor open kitchen, dining and living, powder room; upstairs 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, laundry, attached 1-car garage, about 1,450 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 small modern two story house plans?
They stack bedrooms above shared living space to keep the footprint small, using simple rooflines and clean exteriors. This plan has 1,460 sq ft of living space on a 36'-5" × 25'-3" footprint, which suits narrower lots.
What affects the cost and lot needs of this plan?
The main drivers are foundation and roof area, finishes, local labor, and site work such as grading and the driveway. The compact footprint and stacked bathrooms and laundry help keep structure and plumbing runs short. Check setbacks and local codes before choosing a site.
Can I change this plan by chat?
Yes. You can ask for changes such as a different room layout, the garage on the other side, or a layout adjusted for a narrower or wider lot. The plan is regenerated so the rooms, stairs, and sizes stay consistent.
How do I use the PDF, DXF, and IFC files?
The PDF is for reviewing the plan and sharing it with builders or contractors. The DXF opens in CAD software for 2D editing, and the IFC imports into BIM tools for 3D work. Have a local engineer or designer review the plans before permitting.
