The Yellow House is a compact two-story design providing 840 square feet of total heated living space, optimized for narrow lots measuring 22 feet in width and 42 feet in depth. The exterior profile is defined by a 12:12 roof pitch that reaches a maximum building height of 24 feet, creating a distinct vertical presence despite the small footprint. A 160 square foot covered front porch provides direct access to the main level while a 165 square foot rear deck extends the usable footprint for outdoor utility.

The first floor encompasses 530 square feet of interior space, organized around an open-concept great room that maintains clear sightlines to the kitchen. This level includes a dedicated kitchen island and an integrated walk-in pantry to maximize storage efficiency within the compact layout. A half bathroom is positioned on this floor to support the living and dining zones, ensuring that the primary social core remains uncluttered.

With 310 square feet on the second floor, the upper level houses the primary suite, which includes a private walk-in closet. The transition between floors is supported by a 9-foot ceiling height on the first level and an 8-foot ceiling height on the second level. This volumetric difference allows for a sense of scale that distinguishes the shared living areas from the more private upper-level quarters.

Construction specifications include 2x4 wall framing throughout the structure, designed for durability and efficiency. The floor plan prioritizes vertical organization to minimize lot coverage, making it a viable option for tight residential sites or as a secondary dwelling unit. The combination of the covered porch and rear deck ensures that the exterior transitions are as practical as the interior room arrangement.
