Bangalow kit home floor plan review:
Imagine kit homes

The Bangalow two bedroom small house kit home design is offered by Imagine kit homes and features a cute tri-roof and clerestory windows around the living area.

The Bangalow plan presents a compact yet highly refined layout built around functional living, generous indoor–outdoor flow and clever use of space. The design revolves around a central living and kitchen zone, with bedrooms positioned at opposite ends for privacy. A wide deck spans the entire northern side of the house, creating a strong connection to outdoor living and extending the usable footprint of the home. The result is a layout that feels open, balanced and efficient while still offering distinct personal spaces.

At the core of the plan is the combined kitchen and living area. Both rooms are shown with identical dimensions of 4.95 by 3.3 metres, forming a centralised rectangle that anchors the home. The kitchen is positioned along the lower internal wall, complete with a refrigerator location, under-bench oven, cooktop, dishwasher provision and a clear workspace arrangement. This linear kitchen design keeps everything within reach while still opening broadly toward the living space.

The living area sits directly above the kitchen in the plan and benefits from a large central orientation, with access on both sides leading toward each of the bedrooms. The drawing also notes an optional storage loft above the living zone, measuring 9 by 3.8 metres. This additional space—accessed by a ladder position shown in the plan—adds valuable storage capacity without altering the home’s footprint.

The deck is one of the standout features of the Bangalow layout. Spanning 12.7 by 2.76 metres and shown with an optional pergola, it stretches across the full width of the home. This provides a significant extension of the living and dining areas, perfect for outdoor relaxation or entertaining. The deck can be accessed directly from the living space through a wide opening, creating a seamless indoor–outdoor interface. Its generous width makes it more than a decorative addition; it becomes an everyday functional zone.

Bedroom layout is thoughtfully arranged for privacy. Bedroom 1 sits on the left side of the plan and measures 4.4 by 3.7 metres. It includes a built-in robe spanning the length of the room and direct access to a private ensuite. The ensuite measures 3.7 by 0.9 metres and incorporates a toilet, shower and vanity in a linear configuration that uses its narrow profile efficiently.

Bedroom 2 is located on the opposite side of the layout and measures 3.7 by 3 metres. It includes a built-in robe and close proximity to the powder room. The powder room, labelled “PDR.” in the plan, includes a toilet and basin, providing a separate amenity for guests or household members. Its placement ensures that Bedroom 2 has nearby facilities without intruding upon the privacy of Bedroom 1’s ensuite.

Between Bedroom 2 and the kitchen lies a practical laundry zone. This space includes washer and dryer provision, linen storage and additional pantry (“lily/store”) capacity. The laundry’s proximity to the kitchen enhances day-to-day efficiency, while its internal placement prevents interference with the home’s façade or outdoor living areas.

The entry to the home is shown centrally along the bottom of the plan, offering direct access into the kitchen area. This entry point supports smooth circulation since the kitchen, living, bedrooms and utilities all branch naturally from this central location.

The overall balance of the Bangalow plan lies in its symmetry: living in the centre, bedrooms on either wing, service spaces tucked efficiently behind Bedroom 2, and the large deck unifying the entire northern side. It’s a plan designed for simplicity, with thoughtful details that increase usability without complicating the footprint.
