Kremenchuk one-story house plan up to 60 m² with two bedrooms and wood stove heating (57 м²)

Ready-Made House Project up to 60 m² «Kremenchuk»

The ready-made house project up to 60 m² «Kremenchuk» is a compact single-storey house with an area of 57 m², featuring two bedrooms, a kitchen-living room, a bathroom and stove heating. This option suits those looking for a small house in the category of house projects up to 60 m².

The house features two bedrooms, a kitchen-living room and a bathroom, allowing a family of 2–3 people to live comfortably. The main idea of the project is low construction cost and the ability to heat the house with stoves in case of gas or electricity outages or price increases. This is a rational single-storey house with brick walls, a gable roof and timber ceiling.

Floor Plan

The entrance to the house is through a convenient porch measuring 1.3 × 2.15 m. Beyond it is a small vestibule of 1.8 m², which helps reduce heat loss in winter. Next to the vestibule is a hallway of 5 m². On the right side there is space for an outerwear wardrobe. On the left side, one of the stoves opens into the hallway, heating the bathroom of 5 m² and the bedroom of 9.1 m².

To the right of the hallway is the second bedroom of 13.5 m². It has convenient proportions and can be used as the main parents' bedroom.

The kitchen is combined with the living room into a single space with a total area of 22.6 m². This is the main living zone of the house, with space for kitchen furniture, a dining table and a relaxation area. The larger stove is located in this room, heating the kitchen-living room and the adjacent bedroom.

If needed, the kitchen-living room can be divided by a plasterboard partition to create a separate kitchen and an additional bedroom. Under the roof is a spacious attic that can be used for storage or drying laundry. The attic height at the ridge is 2.4 m.

Architecture and Exterior

The facades of the house have a calm and neat appearance. Light plastered walls are combined with wooden elements around the windows, doors and under the roof. Dark graphite tiles, a grey plinth and neat gutters complete the look of the house. The stove chimneys emphasise the main feature of the project — the ability to heat with stoves.

Structural Solutions and Materials

• Foundation: strip foundation made of monolithic concrete.
• Floor: on a monolithic reinforced concrete slab with polystyrene insulation 150 mm thick.
• Walls: ceramic brick 250 mm thick with external insulation 200 mm thick. Polystyrene foam or rigid basalt wool can be used for insulation. A monolithic reinforced concrete ring beam is installed at the top of the walls.
• Partitions: brick 120 mm thick.
• External finish: decorative plaster.
• Ceiling: timber beams. Insulation — roll basalt or glass wool 300 mm thick.
• Room height: 2.76 m from floor to ceiling beams.
• Roof: gable, pitch 30 degrees. The project specifies FIBRODAH Modern C fibre cement tiles. Metal tiles or bitumen shingles are also possible.

Engineering Features

The house is designed to be heated by two wood- or coal-burning stoves.

• The larger stove is located between the bedroom and the kitchen-living room. Dimensions — 1020 × 770 mm, heat output — 2.3–3.9 kW.
• The smaller stove is located between the bathroom, bedroom and hallway. Dimensions — 505 × 505 mm, heat output — 1.2–2 kW.

If connection to a gas supply is available, space for a gas boiler is provided in the kitchen. A stainless steel flue pipe and ventilation ducts from the kitchen and bathroom are also included.

The bathroom of 5 m² has space for a bath, toilet, washbasin and washing machine. Wastewater treatment is provided by a local treatment system based on a concrete or plastic septic tank. The location of utility entry and exit points must be determined according to local conditions and the position of the house on the plot.

The 30-degree roof pitch is suitable for the installation of solar panels.

Project Advantages

1. Stove heating: two stoves reduce the house's dependence on electricity and gas during the heating season.
2. Economical house shape: dimensions close to a square — 8.26 × 8.42 m. This reduces the external wall area and has a positive effect on the cost of construction and operation.
3. Reliable insulation: insulation of the floor, walls and ceiling creates a warm building envelope and helps reduce heating costs.
4. Flexible layout: the kitchen-living room can be divided into two separate rooms — a kitchen and an additional bedroom.
5. Ready-made project: reduces the time needed to prepare documents for a building permit and allows construction to begin sooner.
