Single Story, 2 Beds, 1 Baths, 900 sq. ft., 30x30 Modern Bungalow Floor Plans: Riverbend Nordic Porch

Last updated on May 19, 2026 · ⓘ How we make our floor plans

This is a compact 900 sq ft single-level home with a clean 30 ft by 30 ft footprint. The plan is efficient, bright, and neatly organized. No wasted corners lounging around rent-free.

The facade has a modern cottage character with simple rectangular massing and large black-framed glass openings. Vertical siding gives the exterior a crisp, tailored rhythm. A standing-seam metal roof adds durability and a sharp contemporary edge. Warm trim details soften the look, while the tall chimney gives the small home a confident architectural wink.

Main Floor

The main floor is a 30 ft by 30 ft layout totaling 900 sq ft. It places the public living spaces on the left side and the private rooms on the right. Simple. Tidy. Sensible.

The entry opens near the top center, supported by a 31 sq ft entryway and a 15 sq ft coat closet. This keeps jackets, shoes, and daily clutter from staging a rebellion in the living room.

The kitchen sits near the entry and connects smoothly to the dining area and central hall. A 16 sq ft pantry adds practical food storage beside the 100 sq ft kitchen. The 92 sq ft dining area flows into the large 208 sq ft living room, creating an open everyday zone with strong access toward the patio.

The right side is dedicated to function and privacy. A 96 sq ft hall links the bedrooms, bathroom, and utility room. Bedroom 1 and Bedroom 2 are close in size, each supported by its own closet. The 55 sq ft utility room is placed at the upper right, keeping service functions neatly tucked away.

The 270 sq ft patio extends the living space outdoors and gives the compact plan a much larger feel. Small house, big personality.

We have more facade options of this design:

Deep Navy Siding

The big change is the siding: it’s now a deep navy, and the whole facade feels sharper, moodier, and far more tailored. That rich color gives the simple gabled front a crisp Nordic character, making the vertical cladding read cleaner and taller—like the house put on a very expensive peacoat.

With the siding darkened, the pale wood trim pops harder, the black-framed glazing looks sleeker, and the metal roof feels cooler and more sculptural. The facade keeps its minimalist rhythm, but the navy adds depth and drama without getting fussy; calm, compact, and just a little bit smug about how good it looks.

Deep Red Siding

The big change is the siding color: it’s now a deep red, and the whole facade suddenly has more swagger. That rich tone makes the simple vertical cladding feel warmer and sharper at once, giving the compact Nordic form a bolder face without turning it into a drama queen.

With the siding pushed into deep red, the other facade elements pop harder—the warm wood window frames glow, the dark standing-seam roof looks crisper, and the black chimney feels extra sleek. Even the broad glass openings read differently now, less quiet cabin and more stylish lakeside charmer with a tiny bit of attitude.

Charcoal Siding

The big shift is the new charcoal siding, and it gives the facade a sharper, moodier Nordic punch. The vertical boards now read crisp and tailored, making the simple gabled form feel more sculpted and a little more dressed in black—without going full drama queen.

That darker skin also boosts the rest of the front elevation. The black-framed glazing blends in more smoothly, the warm wood trim pops brighter, and the standing-seam metal roof feels perfectly synced with the chimney and minimalist lines.

Olive Green Siding

The big change is the olive green siding, and it completely shifts the facade’s mood. It gives the compact Nordic-style front a softer, earthier face, turning the vertical cladding into something calm, woodsy, and a little bit smug in the best way.

That new green plays especially well with the dark-framed glass doors and windows, making the openings look crisper and more graphic. It also deepens the contrast with the muted standing-seam metal roof and the light timber deck, so the whole facade feels more rooted in the landscape—like the house finally dressed for the site instead of just visiting.

Sage Green Siding

The big change is the sage green siding, and it fits this Nordic facade ridiculously well. That muted tone softens the vertical cladding and gives the compact front elevation a more grounded, nature-linked look beneath the crisp standing-seam metal roof and slender chimney.

With the siding now sage green, the black-framed sliding doors and tall glazing stand out more cleanly, adding sharper contrast to the simple facade. The pale roof and timber deck feel even more balanced against it, so the whole exterior reads calmer, warmer, and just a little smug in the best way.

Warm White Siding

The big change is the siding color: it’s now a warm white, and that shift softens the whole facade in one neat swoop. Instead of feeling crisp-cool, the vertical cladding reads sunnier and more inviting, giving the compact Nordic form a gentler face without losing its clean discipline.

That warmer tone also sharpens the contrast with the black-framed glass doors and windows, so the openings pop a little harder—very smug, very stylish. Against the dark standing-seam roof and chimney, the facade feels brighter, calmer, and a touch more tailored, like the house put on its fancy cottage shirt.

Black Color Siding

The big change is the black siding, and it gives the facade a sharper, moodier Nordic punch. The vertical boards now read extra crisp beneath the simple gable roof, making the house look sleeker and a little more dressed for evening—even in daylight.

That darker skin also boosts the contrast with the warm wood trim, pale deck, and broad black-framed glass doors and windows. The metal roof and chimney feel more graphic against it, so the whole front elevation lands with clean lines, calm balance, and just a tiny bit of “dark cabin, but make it chic.”

Crisp White Siding

The crisp white siding changes the whole facade at once, making the compact Nordic form look brighter, cleaner, and a touch more tailored. Against the dark standing-seam metal roof and black-framed glass doors, it creates a snappy contrast that feels fresh without trying too hard.

That new white finish also sharpens the vertical cladding lines, so the front elevation reads more precise and airy, almost like the house stood up straighter for the photo. Even the simple chimney, small wall light, and timber deck pop more clearly now—quiet details, but with a bit more swagger.
