Very small house plans can make luxury playhouses

How small are very small house plans? Would you believe 24 sq feet? Yes, you can buy house plans for a one room, no bathroom house. Why would someone want a house this small? It is barely more than a shed, yet it has all the style of a larger house on the outside. Very small house plans make very beautiful playhouses.

The best part of using a very small house plan for a playhouse plan is that the style can match the style of your home. Add house paint that matches your house and trim and you have a miniature home right in your backyard. These playhouses are large enough to sleep out in and even add child sized furniture. The plans include a roof and doors and windows that will adequately protect your child’s belongings.

The downside of using very small house plans as playhouse plans is that it requires a foundation and building permit. Instead of throwing up a pre-made plastic house that can move around the yard, these playhouse plans are permanent. You will have to look up your town’s building codes to be sure to follow all ordinances. Some towns do not allow permanent structures to be erected within so many feet or meters of the property
line.

Using very small house plans as playhouse plans is something you should only really consider if you have enough land to support another permanent structure. Since it would cost quite a bit to remove the home, make it part of your landscaping plan. When the kids outgrow it, it still adds some charm to your property, while stashing your gardening supplies out of sight.
