The Aldridge is a smartly designed two story house plan that delivers the functionality of a 4 bedroom home plan within a surprisingly compact footprint. Measuring just 38 feet wide and 40 feet deep, this small house plan is well suited for narrow city lots while maintaining the balanced proportions often associated with today’s modern farmhouse plans.
One of the plan’s most practical features is its window placement. With no side windows, the design enhances privacy when built close to neighboring homes. At the same time, generous windows at the front and rear fill the interior with natural light, creating a bright and welcoming environment throughout both levels.
Daily living spaces and the owners’ suite are located on the main level, supporting convenient one-level living when needed. Three additional bedrooms and a full bathroom are positioned upstairs, offering flexibility for families, guests, or home office needs. Upon entry, homeowners can move directly into the living room or head upstairs, with a conveniently tucked coat closet located beneath the staircase.
The efficient C-shaped kitchen is designed to simplify everyday cooking and cleanup. The sink, range, and refrigerator are arranged in a compact work triangle, keeping everything within easy reach. Ample cabinetry and counter space wrap around three sides of the kitchen, providing storage and prep space without sacrificing flow. The kitchen remains open to the dining room, where sliding glass doors lead directly to the patio for easy indoor-outdoor living.
From the kitchen sink, rear-facing windows provide views of the changing seasons or outdoor activity. The main-level owners’ suite includes a step-in closet and direct access to a bathroom with a combined tub and shower.
A functional pass-through connects the home to the two-car garage, with laundry appliances and a walk-in storage closet lining the space. This thoughtful layout adds everyday convenience, especially when arriving home at night or unloading groceries during inclement weather, rounding out a well-balanced set of floor plans designed for modern living.
