6 Fabulous Floor Plans under 2,000 Square Feet

Floor Plans under 2,000 Square Feet

At Taylor Morrison, we believe that your new home is the most important home we can build. It’s part of what makes our company different and a big reason why we’ve been named America’s Most Trusted Home Builder four years in a row.

We understand that every homeowner is different. With different needs, different budgets and different lifestyles. Including buyers who are looking for a smaller home.

Opting for a smaller home is a growing trend – and maybe it’s right for you?

5 Great Benefits to Owning a Smaller Home

  1. Simple math tells you that the fewer square feet you have in your home, the less time and energy you’ll expend tidying and cleaning. Whether you work long hours, prefer an active lifestyle or head out of town often on the weekends, a smaller floor plan translates to more freedom and extra free time.
  2. It’s no secret that a smaller home comes with a smaller price tag. This means you’ll have much more wiggle room in the budget to add on all those beautiful options and upgrades you’ve always wanted. Some buyers prefer a smaller home that’s more luxurious than a larger plan with standard finishes. The same theory holds true for furniture shopping, too. With fewer rooms to decorate you can choose to splurge on more expensive furnishings and accessories.
  3. Even a top-quality new construction home requires maintenance over the years. Simply put, the smaller your home, the fewer things that can go wrong. From a fresh coat of paint to redoing the roof, major maintenance projects cost less with a smaller home.
  4. The cost of heating or cooling your residence is directly related to the volume of air circulating through your home. Along with responsible energy-efficient construction, a smaller home can cut utility expenses dramatically. It’s not just about money, either – a smaller home is better for the environment.
  5. Less space to fill with stuff can be a positive game changer for many people. Instead of focusing on accumulating more possessions, you can enjoy quality time with your loved ones indoors and out.

Smaller Plans that Pack a Punch

Today’s sub-2,000 square foot home looks a lot different than smaller homes of the past. Utilizing open-concept planning and techniques for optimization of space, a smaller home built in 2019 will live much larger than similarly sized house designs from yesteryear.

Taylor Morrison’s award-winning plans provide the trendiest features in every new home we build. Even our most compact plans include:
