SAVED!
Discover the best single-story modern house plans in the collection below. You'll notice one-story designs with cool, contemporary curb appeal, open-concept ranch-style layouts, Mid-Century-modern-inspired blueprints with sweet outdoor living, and more.
Minimal stairs! One-Story homes may feature a basement or optional upstairs bonus room, but the primary living spaces (kitchen, family room, primary bed and bath, etc.) all live on the main level. This can make aging in place (and daily life) easier and safer.
One-story homes can sometimes be more expensive to build than two-story layouts, as they typically require more land to build on (and land is expensive), larger foundations, and more expansive roofs. Having said that, the cost to build a house depends on many different factors.

If you prefer traditional architecture, and/or you're planning to build in a neighborhood that embraces traditional-style homes, a modern-style house might not be for you. What's more, if you prefer having an upstairs primary suite (e.g. with a balcony and a great view of your surroundings), a one-story home is not going to suffice.
