Single Story, 2 Beds, 1 Baths, 900 sq. ft., 30x30 Modern Bungalow Floor Plans: Birch Gable Minimal

Last updated on May 20, 2026 · ⓘ How we make our floor plans

This is a compact 900 sq ft single-level house plan with two bedrooms, one bathroom, and a clean open living core. The layout is square, efficient, and not interested in wasting corners. Sensible little thing.

The facade uses a modern cottage form with a steep front gable and strong symmetry. Vertical natural wood siding highlights the center entry, while smooth light wall surfaces keep the exterior calm. Dark-framed windows add crisp contrast. The roof is a simple dark metal gable with broad overhangs and neat trim lines.

Total area: 900 sq ft
Bedrooms: 2
Bathrooms: 1
Floors: 1

Main Floor

The main floor measures 30 ft by 30 ft and contains 900 sq ft. The plan is arranged around a central hall, with the open living spaces to one side and the private rooms to the other. Clear. Compact. No maze games before coffee.

The entryway leads directly into the hall, giving fast access to the kitchen, dining area, living room, utility room, bathroom, and bedrooms. Storage is handled with a coat closet near the entry, a pantry by the kitchen, and individual bedroom closets. These small spaces do the quiet heavy lifting.

The left side of the plan is open and social. The kitchen connects to the dining area, which flows into the large living room. The living room then opens toward the patio, giving the home a relaxed indoor-outdoor rhythm.

The right side is more private. Bedroom 1 sits at the lower right with its own closet. Bedroom 2 is placed above it, close to the bathroom. The utility room is tucked at the upper right, keeping laundry and household work out of the main living zone. Very polite of it.

We have more facade options of this design:

Urbane Bronze Siding

The biggest shift is the house siding now wears Urbane Bronze, and it gives the facade a moodier, sharper edge.

That deep brown-gray turns the simple gable front into something more sculpted, making the light vertical wood cladding at the center pop like the facade suddenly learned contrast. Even the black window frames feel crisper now—very put together, very “I drink espresso on this deck.”

With the darker siding, the front elevation reads cleaner and more dramatic without losing its minimal charm. The pale wood entry door, slim vertical side glass, and centered slatted panel stand out more boldly, while the broad gable roof feels heavier and more grounded in a good way.

It is still compact and calm, just with a little more swagger.

Dusty Blue Siding

The big change is the siding color: it’s now a dusty blue, and the whole facade instantly feels calmer, sharper, and a bit more dressed up.

That muted tone gives the vertical cladding on both sides of the front gable a soft, coastal crispness, while the natural wood center section around the entry pops forward with much more warmth. Even the black-framed glazing looks bolder against it—little drama queens, but in a good way.

With the dusty blue in place, the simple gabled front reads even cleaner and more deliberate. The charcoal roofline feels tighter, the blond timber soffits glow a little richer, and the facade’s symmetry becomes easier to read at a glance.

It’s still minimal, still tidy, just with a cooler mood and better contrast—like the house put on a very tasteful jacket.

Deep Navy Siding

The big change is the deep navy siding, and it gives the facade a sharper, moodier edge right away. Against the simple gable form, that rich color makes the house look more tailored and a little more dramatic—in a good way, not cape-and-thunder dramatic.

With the siding turned navy, the pale vertical wood cladding at the center pops harder, drawing extra attention to the front door and entry bay. The black window frames and dark roofline now feel more intentional too, while the wide glass openings and clean lines keep the facade crisp, calm, and just smug enough about it.

Deep Red Siding

The biggest change is the deep red siding, and it completely rewires the facade. It gives the simple gable front a warmer, bolder pulse, turning the side wall planes into rich color blocks that make the pale vertical timber center panel pop like the house suddenly discovered confidence.

That deeper red also sharpens the rest of the front elevation. The black-framed windows and sliding glass door look crisper, the dark roof edge feels more graphic, and the light wood entry becomes the calm hero in the middle—very composed, a little dramatic, and not mad about it.

Charcoal Siding

The switch to charcoal siding sharpens the whole facade at once. It gives the simple gabled form a moodier, more tailored look, making the vertical center cladding and horizontal side boards feel extra crisp, like the house put on its best dark jacket.

That deeper tone also boosts the contrast with the pale wood entry door, so the entrance pops right at the center. Black-framed windows blend more seamlessly into the facade, the roofline reads cleaner, and the minimalist exterior suddenly feels a touch more dramatic—in a very calm, Scandinavian sort of way.

Olive Green Siding

The big change is the olive green siding, and it totally resets the facade’s mood. It gives the compact gabled front a softer, earthier presence, making the vertical cladding at the center and the smooth wall planes feel more unified and calm.

The color turns the house from crisp minimal to quietly woodland-chic—like modernism decided to touch grass.

That olive tone also plays beautifully against the dark window frames, slim roof edge, and simple front door, sharpening the clean geometry without making it feel stern.

The broad gable reads even stronger now, while the restrained facade keeps its neat symmetry and uncluttered lines. Small house, very composed face, and now with a little more swagger.

Sage Green Siding

The big change is the sage green siding, and it gives the facade a calmer, softer mood right away. Against the crisp black window frames and dark gable roof, the new color feels fresh and quietly tailored, like the house finally discovered good taste and stuck with it.

That shift also makes the pale vertical wood cladding at the center pop more, sharpening the entry and drawing the eye to the front door. The simple gabled form still reads clean and minimal, but the sage tone adds a gentler, garden-savvy character—less stark box, more stylish woodland cousin.

Black Siding

The big change is the siding turning black, and it gives the facade a sharper, moodier edge in the best way. The dark cladding makes the simple gable form look crisper, while the pale vertical wood at the center now pops like it knows it’s the favorite child.

That black finish also strengthens the window frames and roofline, pulling the whole front elevation into one sleek composition. Against the light timber door and warm soffit, the facade feels more modern, more graphic, and just a little bit dramatic—without wearing a cape.

Crisp White Siding

The biggest shift is the siding color: a crisp white skin now wraps the facade, making the little gable front look sharper, brighter, and a touch more dressed up. It turns the simple horizontal cladding into a clean backdrop for the warm vertical wood at the center, so the entry volume pops instead of politely whispering.

That white also gives the black-framed windows and dark roofline more bite, adding a neat graphic contrast to the front elevation. The pale siding bounces light around the facade, making the house feel fresher and more minimal, while the natural timber door and cladding keep it from looking too serious—thankfully, because modern houses can sometimes act like they invented geometry.
