Plan 53 A welll planned 385 sq.ft full-time home shown here with the roof off. Here you can see the heated space as well as the front porch and the optional high wall sunbathing patio. This patio is just one of countless posibilities. The fact that both the bedroom and the bathroom have direct access to this side area opens this plan to some fun posibilities. I like the outdoor shower, Of course, there is also an indoor shower. This small home even has a stack laundry closet. |

Plan 53, Here is a roof off view where you can see how the niche in the corner of the small bedroom serves to house a chest and can also be use to mount a tv out of the way when walking around the bed. |

| Plan 53 front porch. An easy addition to this small home that will serve as an unheated extension of the living space. Can be easily screened. |
 |
Plan 53. An easy to build 1 bedroom, 385 sq.ft. home. I have published a book dedicated to this plan detailing how to construct the frame structure for this plan. The book is entitled: Small Home Bulding Made Easy, Plan 53 and is available at amazon.com |
 |
Plan 53. This view offers a good perspective of the plan. There are lots of windows and a 9' ceiling. A very economical plan that will be cheap to heat and cool. |
 |
Plan 53. The bedroom is quiet zoned from the rest of the home and the queen size bed has full walk-around. This small, 385 sq.ft.home has been planned for full-time comfort. Who says comfort has to be sacrificed when designing small? |

 |
Plan 53 is a plan that will be well suited on a large property or built in a quaint neighborhood on an amazing view lot too small for most homes. |
 |
| Plan 53. Good closet space. |
 |
Plan 53. The galley kitchen is very economical to complete and is designed to fit standard size refrigerator and cook stove. The limited upper cabinet space is compensated with a floor-to-ceiling pantry closet across from galley sink. Due to limited space, the galley countertip has been modified to accomodate duce dining. The triple window arrangement is raised a foot higher to enable the homeowner to lift your sights to the sky. |
 |
Plan 53. In this cutaway view you can see how this small home is zoned. Thake a look at the middle zone. You can see the pantry closet door. The bathroom door (opened) looking straight through the glass door to the high wall patio. And high on my list of what makes a house a comfortable home; the laundry. Here you see a space saving stack laundry. |
 |
Plan 53. It's unusual for a house plan this small to have a separate bedroom with a 6' wide patio door. It's unusual for any home of any size to have a bathroom with a full length glass door to the outside. I live in a home that has a glass door in the bathroom and it is really convienent with a backyard pool and hot tub. The glass door allows the main house bathroom to serve double duty as the seasonal pool house and saves the rest of the house from people tracking through to use the bathroom. This is just part of what makes this small plan unique and pleasure to own. |

| Plan 53 is only 385 sq.ft. but is planned for comfortable living. |

| This is the companion book that is written to provide the beginner homebuilder with the same information I needed as a do-it-yourself homebuilder/land buyer. One of the things I discovered early in my lifetime was how to buy land without credit or banks. It is called "Owner Financing" and in this companion book I discuss how simple and useful it is to buy all the land you will ever need without a down payment or credit report and the information is right here as well as basic do-it-yourself homebuilding tips to show you how to build with cash from income and stay out of debt. This book contains the kind of information that more priviliged individuals can learn from professional contacts. The book also teaches you how to rise above the negative input you may hear from someone who is likely just too jealous to see you succeed. There is a lot more to building a home than a hammer and a nail and this book will not only help you get going with your dream but also help you keep what you have gained.
