Description
A simple way to combine privacy with sociability, this house plan features two homes in one. The single-bedroom main house is one level with a semiopen plan including a spacious master suite with separate sleeping and sitting areas. A ceramic-tile floor, French doors, and a skylit ceiling brighten the garden room entry. Remaining spaces in the main house offer areas for cooking and entertaining.
The design provides a number of possibilities. The main house could be built first, with the second house added later. Where zoning permits, the guesthouse might also be used for rental purposes. A bedroom could be added by enclosing part of the deck on the guesthouse. The units may also be arranged front and rear to fit on a narrow lot.
Overall dimensions of the two units (with connector) are 129 x 84 feet in the side-by-side layout. The bridge connecting the two may be shortened, if necessary. Both units are designed with shade and natural ventilation for warm, humid climates. Florida Cracker styling includes cedar board-and-batten exterior walls, crawlspace foundation, and a metal roof with deep overhangs. There are roughly 2,000 square feet of living space in the main unit and almost 1,000 square feet in the second unit.
