Plz Help
There are many pre-made home plans available & you can buy some books at Lowe's & Home Depot showing many designs, styles, & sizes for ordering a pre-made plan, you can even get a CD with some of them. But the very first thing you need to do is check with your local zoning office to see what the "setback" requirements are. There will be zoning codes/laws that you will need to consider before you can choose a house plan. The setback codes will apply to each side, the front, and the rear for the home, any garage, and any storage buildings that may be built on a lot also.
Example: Here in my town the setbacks are:
1. Front of home has to be set back at least 25 feet from the street, roadway, or alley fronting the home.
2. Each side of the home must be setback at least 15 feet from each property line along the side.
Using that example and with one of my lots I own (50x150) I can only build a home that is no more that 20 feet wide and it must be built in the center of the lot.
Your local zoning office will be more than helpful for you and probably has all that info printed and ready to hand out for their citizens. They may also have that info on their website too. Most ready made home plans are designed for a typical lot size of 75x150 (or bigger) that is available on the market now & have been for many years. You may need a architect to custom design the home for your particular needs & small lot size. Depending on where you live & want to build there may be county zoning codes only but there may also be the town/city zoning codes too so you'll need to check with both. Some cities allow for a home in a closed alley and/or between other existing buildings so you'll need to ask about that also if your lot is located in one of those areas.
My best guess is that you'll need an architect to design a custom home for you.
