SMALL MODULAR PREFAB HOUSE PROJECT – 1500 SQ FT SINGLE STORY CHALET-STYLE, 2 BEDROOM

Every time we are asked to design a custom modular home, the starting conditions are different: sometimes it's a sloped plot, an elongated shape, building restrictions, or a client who wants sunlit rooms aligned on one axis.

Although we have a distinct architectural style, each of our modular prefab house projects is fully adapted to the owners’ specific needs and dreams. Many of these designs are small modular homes, single story house plans, and energy-efficient prefab houses that blend naturally into their surroundings. If you're looking for simple 1500 sq ft house plans or 1500 square foot house plans 2 bedroom, this concept is a perfect fit.

This time, we were asked to design a second home — a custom modular vacation home, prefab and built from wood, to be used occasionally as a guesthouse.

The result? A single story modular chalet-style home of under 150 sqm (approx. 1500 sq ft), with high ceilings throughout, natural stone and wood facades, wide openings toward the flower-filled garden, and a covered terrace designed for outdoor dining. It’s one of our most successful 2-bedroom prefab house plans, designed for both comfort and charm, and a great example of simple 1500 sq ft modular prefab house single story 2 bedroom.
