Garden houses with terrace. One-story houses with a terrace

Buying a summer cottage is just the beginning. It needs to be planned, the optimal house must be selected, and a general concept for its design must be developed. In this article we will consider a variety of country house projects. From the smallest for one room, to very spacious ones - for 100 square meters of usable area.

With veranda and terrace

When choosing the layout of a country house, they often try to find a project with a veranda or terrace. Such a covered area is good not only for relaxing or eating outdoors. On a rainy or hot day, under a canopy you can do a lot of things that, due to the large amount of garbage in the premises, cannot be done.

On a common foundation

Projects of country houses with a veranda have a small area: the smallest have dimensions of 6 * 4 meters, and the veranda occupies 2 meters on the long side, and the house itself is 4 * 4 meters or 16 square meters (taking into account the thickness of the walls, even less).

Another option is one room, in which there is space for several kitchen cabinets and a stove, there is a small dining table and a sleeping area. This layout is ideal for one person. Two people will feel good in it. This option does not have a bathroom, so you will have to separate it.

The layout of a small country house (up to 40 meters) is quite simple: usually there are two rooms, the first of which is used as a kitchen and dining room at the same time. Most often it is a walk-through. The second room is living. You can more or less comfortably place two sleeping places here. So, projects of country houses with a 6*4 meter attic are designed to accommodate 1-2 people.

If the construction budget is very limited, consider projects of country houses with a pitched roof. They are unusual for our country, but the cost of roofing for a small area is much less. You just need to choose the right one (taking into account the amount of snow cover).

A medium-sized country house is shown in the photo above. The project is interesting because the veranda here was originally “winter”, glazed. Most owners of open verandas come to the need to glaze it, and for a pleasant time outdoors. In this project, the veranda is a continuation of the living room, but a partition can be installed here. In general, a convenient and comfortable house with a traditional layout, all rooms are separate, there is a bathroom, and a fenced off corridor. All conditions for year-round living.

On a separate foundation

Please note that the above projects of country houses with a veranda have a common foundation. This is reliable, since even with spring heaving of the soil there will be no movement. But the foundation costs are significant. Therefore, this approach is justified on complex soils prone to heaving. On normal soils, you can build a veranda on a separate, disconnected and lightweight (usually columnar or pile) foundation. One such project is presented below.

In general, a veranda can be attached to any building. It can be laid at the design stage, or it can be added afterwards (as happens very often).

Small country house 6*4.5 with a veranda on a separate foundation

The veranda can completely occupy one side of the house, or it can cover two or even three of its sides. But there are options with a small open area (as in the photo above). In this case, the foundation may be separate, but there will not be much savings. For example, in the project above, only 1.1 meters of the main foundation were “gained.”

We are so accustomed to comfort that even at the dacha we don’t want to have “convenience in the yard.” For many, the main selection criterion is the availability of a bathroom. Even necessity does not scare them. Not all projects of small country houses can boast of such “excess”, but some have a bathroom (toilet and shower).

With attic

The idea of increasing your living space comes often. It is believed that construction costs do not increase much, since most of the superstructure is a modified roof. In reality, if the attic is used all year round, the difference in the price tag for a two-story house and a one-story house with an attic will be small. After all, we must take into account that the area of the attic floor premises is much smaller, and the costs will be high, since good heat, sound, and vapor insulation is required.

Attics under a gable roof

A country house with a summer attic will be really cheap. But it must be taken into account that on sunny days it will be too hot there without insulation, so thermal insulation is still necessary, but not as “serious” as for winter use.

The country house projects presented above are intended for seasonal visits. They provide only living rooms. In the room on the first floor you can organize a kitchen corner.

Below is the layout of a small garden or country house measuring 5 by 5 meters with a dedicated kitchen. Please note that the porch is attached and is not on the plan.

All these houses are designed as frame houses. With minor modifications, these designs can be used for houses made of any other material. You just need to take into account the thickness of the walls and choose the right foundation.

If desired, the covered veranda can be made open. Although, usually the opposite happens. Having built an open one, it is glazed or pushed out to half the wall, and single frames are installed. If you want fresh air, you can always open the windows, and the area can be allocated for a summer dining room or kitchen.

How to increase the area of the attic floor

All projects of country houses with an attic floor are made under a gable roof. This is good in the sense that the snow will not linger on such steep slopes. The second advantage is the simple rafter system. The downside is the small area of the “full” room upstairs. Too much wasted space around the edges. You can make cabinets there, but this area is unsuitable for living.

If it is important for you to increase your living space, you can make the roof sloping. It is more complex and more expensive, but the area of the premises on the attic floor is much larger.

Another way to increase the area is to raise the walls above the level of the first floor. They say to build “one and a half floors.” This option is good for dachas that are visited during the cold season. The roof can be made as you like, but a large area of the rooms still turns out to be broken.

Example of “one and a half floor”

When choosing a project for a country house with an attic for periodic visits, it is better to make the attic cold and make the ceiling insulated. On the stairs that lead to the second floor, it is necessary to provide a door/cover that will fence off the upper tier. Otherwise, heating will take a lot of fuel and time. In winter, there are usually fewer people, and visits are short. Warming up both floors is too time-consuming and expensive, so this isn't a bad solution.

Projects of two-story country houses

Building a two-story house is not such an expensive undertaking. You still need one foundation, albeit a more powerful one, but its cost does not increase twice, but by 60%. The dimensions and insulation of the roof do not depend on the number of storeys at all, so there is no need to increase investments. The costs of the walls are added - their area is twice as large, but in general the cost per square meter of area is cheaper than when building a similar one-story dwelling. That’s why many people are looking for designs for two-story dachas.

Project of a small two-story house for a summer residence with an attached garage: living area 100 sq. m. m, total 127 sq. m, garage for one car

The above project is designed for aerated concrete or ceramic building blocks. Suitable for long areas. The attached garage is very convenient to use - from the garage you can get into the house. Another plus: this option saves space on the plot, and there is always little of it at the dacha, no matter how big the plot you have.

In this layout option, there is a spacious terrace on the back side of the house. It is not included in the total area of the house. An interesting design makes the house different from others: a large window on one and a half floors, a cubic-shaped garage and a canopy in front of the house do not affect the price tag too much, but make the house unique.

Another project for a two-story dacha with a garage attached to the side is presented above. This option is more suitable for square or wide areas. The building area in plan is 10*10 meters, living area is 108 square meters. The tall windows on the second floor give this house an unusual appearance. The selection of finishing materials and the combination of light beige and brown colors also contribute. Overall an interesting project.

A non-standard-looking two-story house with a balcony that encircles the entire building. At the rear there is a large open terrace. The roof is hipped, which complicates the design, but gives the building a special flavor.

With sauna

For many people, a dacha is associated with a bathhouse. A bathhouse, of course, can be built separately, but it is time-consuming and expensive. In a medium-sized country house, it is quite possible to set aside a room for a steam room. It is usually done with the entrance from the bathroom/WC, since water procedures are necessary. For true steamers, there should still be access to the street nearby: so that you can quickly cool off in a river or outdoor pool.

The minimum size of a steam room is 2*2 meters, the optimal size is 3*3. Such rooms can be fitted even into small houses, but at the same time the amount of living space will be reduced. If you still need to have enough rooms, you can consider the option of an attic floor. One such example is in the photo below.

Pay attention to the layout. The first thing you should focus on is that the stove is installed in such a way that it is heated from the next room. In this case, it is the recreation room. The option is not very good, since the entrance is far away. You will have to carry firewood across the room, which is inconvenient and usually results in a lot of garbage.

Another drawback: this option does not have a kitchen. For country life this is a serious drawback. The kitchen corner can be organized in a large room, and the bedrooms can be placed exclusively upstairs. Another layout option is to make a kitchen in the current “furnace/recreation room.” It is more comfortable to relax in a large room. It’s convenient to go in there after taking a shower.

Small and inexpensive

Small dachas are usually designed using the most inexpensive construction technologies. In our country, this is frame technology and wooden houses. Houses made from porous building blocks (,) are in approximately the same category. But they are still not so popular.

Projects of country houses using frame technology

Small country houses are usually built using frame technology. , you can buy ready-made ones - prefabricated ones. These are two technologies that, with minimal investment of money and time, allow you to have good holiday housing.

To optimize the budget for building a country house, look for projects whose foundation on the plan is a rectangle or square. The presence of any protrusions leads to an increase in the price per square meter. Not only do the costs of the foundation increase, the area of the walls increases, and, therefore, the costs for them. The roof is also more expensive - the rafter system is more complex, there are more complex components.

Layout of a 6*4 country house with kitchen, toilet, summer veranda

One more point for those who plan to visit the dacha in winter. To prevent warm air from escaping from the house when walking back and forth, it is advisable to make the entrance with a vestibule. If the area does not allow it to be built-in, make an extension. This will greatly reduce fuel consumption and the time it takes to warm up the house.

Beam and log

One of the most common building materials in our country: timber and logs. The advantage is that a small country house can be built very quickly. The downside is that it takes a long time to shrink (from six months to a year, depending on the initial moisture content of the log and climatic conditions). It is not worth carrying out finishing work until the end of the period of active shrinkage, which delays the possibility of operating the building. This does not apply to standing log houses (ready-made kits) or laminated veneer lumber. But the price is significantly (twice) higher for such options.

A small country house made of 4*4 timber - a very simple project

If we talk about the smallest country houses, they measure 4 by 4 meters. Doing less simply doesn't make sense. The layout in this case is quite simple: it’s just one room. They can differ only in their orientation to the cardinal directions, the number and location of windows. Doors can also be located in the middle or on the side. All. The options have run out.

The house will be a little larger in area, 6*4 meters. Here in its “pure” form we have about 22 squares of area, place 14-15 in the previous version. The layout is still not very diverse, but you can already fence off the kitchen area.

If we talk about optimal costs, then the above country house projects are not the best option. The fact is that it is better to make timber or log cottages 6*6 in plan. The fact is that the standard length of both beams and logs is 6 meters. If the walls of your house are smaller, you need to either look for a non-standard length of suitable length, or saw off the excess from the standard ones. Yes, non-standard costs much less, but you will have to look for it in different sawmills. Even at the largest sawmill, it is more than difficult to find timber or logs 4-5 meters long in sufficient quantities for construction. So you will have to “iron” everything nearby. It is difficult to say what the quality of the material will be. Although, if it doesn’t work for you, you can buy the same non-standard logs for several years, put them in piles, bringing them to operating humidity. Overall, this is a good plan. It just takes a lot of time to implement.

Today, not every suburban area is used as a place for growing crops. Many owners of dachas and household plots strive to equip a place to relax near their home. Near the dacha you can build a gazebo or terrace, or attach a terrace or canopy. Often a small pond is built near the house. Various designs of houses with a veranda and terrace will help you build a practical structure with an attractive design on your territory. Photos of finished structures can be found in the article.

How to distinguish a terrace from a veranda

Before building a recreation building near the house, it is worth deciding what a terrace and veranda are. Many do not imagine much difference between them. That is why before starting work you should familiarize yourself with the features of each type of structure.

The terrace is a summer area with wooden flooring. The base is usually raised above the ground. Sometimes terraces are located at the second floor level. Such buildings are usually adjacent to a country house - they are located next to one of the walls. Also, terraces often completely encircle the building.

Open structures are made of wood. They may have railings and a roof. The fencing ensures the safety of using the terrace, and the roof provides protection from precipitation. Terraces are usually built on the side of the house from which you can see the garden, forest or pond. Instead of a roof, you can install an umbrella or canopy made of awning fabric.

The veranda, unlike the terrace, is a closed building that is not heated and also serves as a recreation room. The roof and walls of the veranda are made of various materials, such as wood, polycarbonate, glass. The structures themselves are usually made of wood or brick. The veranda is used as a place for relaxation with family, gatherings with friends, as a summer kitchen or dining room.

When using the premises in winter, the walls should be thermally and waterproofed. Heating is also provided in such a room.

Important! In the absence of heating, the inner surface of the walls must be made of moisture-resistant materials. This will prevent mold from appearing.

Verandas are usually built in places with a cold climate. Terraces, on the contrary, are more common in warm regions where positive temperatures remain for most of the year.

Summer recreation areas can be attached or built-in. In the latter case, they are included in the house design and are equipped at the stage of its construction. If a terrace or veranda is added, a separate foundation will be equipped for it.

Veranda design

Modern verandas and terraces are arranged taking into account the features of the landscape and exterior of the house. Such buildings look very attractive. The veranda is no longer built as a vestibule in which garden tools or other household supplies are stored. The building should offer a view that will please the eye. You should not design the veranda in such a way that the people who will be in it will have to look at the neighbor’s fence or barn. It is better to arrange a view of the garden or flower beds.

Veranda design features:

Verandas made of wooden elements look original. However, such a structure can be created from a variety of other materials. Wooden structures are usually equipped with canopies and carved panels.
The brick veranda is installed on a fairly strong foundation. To decorate such a building, bricks of different shades are used. With the help of this material it is worth highlighting the corners, gables and base part.
The stone building looks especially exotic. If it has semi-arches, they can be covered with stained glass or simply glazed. Translucent products are more widespread. The frame of the building is made of wooden blocks or bricks. It is necessary that the supports under the glass are as strong as possible. Double or triple glazing should be installed in openings.

Advice! Polycarbonate is often used instead of glass. Sheets of this material are durable, cheap and light weight.

The external design of the veranda should be done in accordance with the exterior of the main building. According to many experienced builders, extensions can be made from the same materials that were used to build the house.

Terrace project

The simplest options include the construction of a standard rectangular flooring, which will have a minimum of decorative details. However, curly designs look much more attractive. Often, in order to increase the practicality of the terrace, it is made multi-level. This solution will come in handy if the veranda will be used by many people of different ages.

Terraces are often made in combination. They are combined with pergolas or gazebos. Also, an artificial pond is usually installed near the terrace. A simple pool is inflatable. It is possible to create a more complex design - a large pit trimmed with tiles. You can often see a barbecue table on the terrace. In this case, it is reliably isolated from the wooden flooring and placed away from the recreation area. Such a terrace can be seen in the photo below.

If it is impossible to equip a terrace in the immediate vicinity of the house, you can build it at some distance. Among the advantages of this solution is the opportunity to relax alone. In addition, on such a terrace you can set up a playground without fear that the noise will disturb the people in the house.

Buildings equipped with sliding window walls have become very popular among owners of suburban areas. This allows you to arrange the veranda as a terrace. Such walls are usually made of several sections. If you move them completely, a full view of the site will open from the veranda.

conclusions

Verandas and terraces usually have not only a decorative purpose, but also have a practical purpose. Such premises are distinguished by rich functionality. By using a veranda, the usable area of the home is significantly increased. They provide playrooms, offices, recreation areas or dining rooms. Terraces are basically a place where you can spend quality time with friends and family.

Starting the construction of a house is a project, the creation of which is based not only on the dreams of the future owner, but also on the specific conditions of the area, financial capabilities, taking into account the type of construction. The construction of a one-story private, country house, or country building is not complete without creating additional comfort for the residents by adding a veranda, attic, terrace, or garage.

Project options

Wooden terrace

The wooden terrace attached to the house has an exotic and very attractive appearance. Stable supports are made of timber. To make it more attractive, carved panels for fencing, original patterned canopies, and stylishly designed support posts can be used.

The open space will be subject to the vagaries of the weather, but it is a fairly reliable protective structure against rain, snow, hail, and sun.

When building a brick extension, it is important to properly arrange the foundation, which should be the same in depth as under the entire house. If this point is observed, distortions, breaks or cracks will not occur in the future.

During the design process, you can use the designer’s imagination, using bricks of different colors to create an original highlight, for example, of corners or frontal decor.

The roof should have a steeper slope than that of the house itself. For interior and exterior decoration, any suitable materials are used, including plasterboard, lining (see), plaster.

The stone terrace looks quite nice and majestic. High walls close the openings almost to the roof. If desired, the semi-arches can be glazed, stained glass can be created or covered with bars.

When creating a cozy place to relax, you should worry about lighting. Spotlights built into the ceiling are a stylish and modern option.

The veranda, the walls of which are lined with plastic, looks elegant and unusual. The basis of the structure will be brick, as strong support is required.

For glazing, you will need to install profiles that will be securely fixed in brick openings. When choosing a glazing method, you should take into account the expected temperature conditions. When using a veranda in the cold season, you must choose double frames.

Houses with a veranda or terrace are an original solution, but comfortable and familiar. Experienced builders are well versed in the algorithm for constructing one- or two-story buildings with similar additions. Extensions play both a decorative role and carry a functional load, freeing up space for arranging an office, a kitchen, a playroom, and a place for family recreation.

Differences between veranda and terrace

Experienced builders advise that before drawing up a project, consider the presence of a veranda or terrace, so that later you can deal with decoration rather than completing the original structures.

The veranda occupies an area adjacent to the house, so it can have one or two common walls with it. Usually the building is glazed either over the entire area or in the upper part, doors are installed, and a roof is mounted (see).

A terrace is an open area, often on a monolithic or raised foundation on stilts. Can be covered with a light roof, canopy, or awning. Features include a doorway or arch, sewn or wicker panels along the bottom, and the absence of windows.

Design Features

When developing a project for a house with a terrace and veranda, the location of the building on the site is taken into account. The initially supposed wide view is designed to contemplate the surrounding picturesque landscapes and the equipped courtyard. If the owners of the building are not afraid of even frost on an insulated veranda, then the terrace is unlikely to be suitable for a long stay in the cold season.

Advantages

The advantages of constructing a veranda include:

Preservation of heat when in cold weather the door is opened not to the street, but to a closed room.
No sudden temperature changes.
Insulation of walls while simultaneously increasing the living space.

Material

When choosing a project for a veranda, take into account the material from which it will be made:

Beam.
Brick.
Foam block.
Plastic.

To decide on the material for a veranda or terrace, decide what role the extension will play: decorative or practical.

Features of the location of the terrace

Typically, most houses that have a terrace have access to it from the living room and even from the kitchen, which is quite justified: living in such a house brings maximum comfort. Traditionally, in houses with one floor, the terrace is located on the opposite side of the main entrance; this location is relevant for 90% of modern structures. According to statistics, design solutions of this type are more often popular in the warm regions of the south, but in more severe conditions the terrace is intended to become a worthy option.

Projects of houses with a terrace and a garage

The terrace is the most important aesthetic component of the house, being a favorite place for relaxation of the owners and their guests. This open-plan extension can be made from a variety of materials, including stone and metal. The structure is usually installed under the roof of the entire house, but sometimes it is separate and equipped with its own roof. Many home owners choose the option of a terrace without a roof, then umbrellas are used to protect it from external factors. The design of the terrace must be carried out together with the design of the main living space, otherwise it will entail enormous additional costs.

A garage is an integral element of a modern home, especially for car owners who want to save space on the site. Recently, an increasing number of people prefer to build an underground structure that is convenient and functional.

On the pages of the site you can view and evaluate projects of houses up to 100 square meters. m, which are distinguished by a high level of reliability, aesthetic indicators and, of course, the possibility of subsequent comfortable living in them.

Ready-made and custom design work

All design solutions are traditionally divided into three groups - these are ready-made projects of a standard plan, individual design, and combined solutions.

Typical designs

These are the standard terrace and garage houses that most people build. Their projects are already presented in finished form, so all that remains for the construction team is to arrive at the site and build the structure according to the finished plan.

Advantages of the method:

Low cost of the structure, ensured by the absence of costs for planning operations;
Easy installation - all that is required is to wait for a team of craftsmen and the construction of the house;
High speed of work - no need to wait for lengthy developments, all elements for construction are already ready.

Most families prefer to choose standard projects and build houses based on ready-made photos.

Individual design: features

This method allows you to design a structure according to your own desires and preferences, of course, based on compliance with safety regulations. This is a real opportunity that will make your dream come true and create conditions for a comfortable stay.

Advantages of the method:

Translation of all design and other ideas into reality;

100% individuality of your home;

High aesthetic indicators of the finished home.

However, the construction of such a house will require additional costs for the development of the project and time losses for its implementation. Whether the game is worth the candle is up to you to decide!

Creation of increased living space. This glazed extension can often be used as an additional living space or office. In the summer, what could be better than family gatherings over a board game or a pleasant conversation and a cup of tea. And if you insulate this structure, you will be able to enjoy tea drinking and comfortable rest even during severe frosts.

Increasing the thermal insulation properties of the house. The design can serve as an excellent way to protect your home from the wind, which will allow you to significantly save on thermal insulation. An insulated veranda is a 100% guarantee of warmth in the house even in winter.
The possibility of creating a close connection that will be formed between the house and the space that surrounds it. Going out onto the terrace and looking out the window, you will see a beautiful landscape and view that you choose. It could be an apple orchard, a beautiful forest or a picturesque lake - whatever you want.

Attractive appearance is one of the main reasons why you should choose a house with a terrace. It will look cozy, complete, and staying inside such a room will make your life truly comfortable and fabulous. Remember, many people probably dreamed of a fairytale castle in childhood. A one-story frame house with a terrace can become just that!

Pricing policy in the field of design

The cost of a finished project usually depends on how ready it is. If you decide to make do with standard projects based on a special sketch, the price will be significantly lower than if you prefer a strictly individual option. Using the photos presented on the pages of the site, you can decide which option suits you, and then choose it and create a masterpiece! Regardless of the chosen project, each decision will be accompanied by the provision of appropriate documentation, which is 100% reliable and has legal significance.

Projects of one-story houses with a terrace: materials used

Currently, the construction of houses is carried out from different materials and their combinations. For example, you can build a powerful castle from natural stone or build a durable structure from brick. The project of a brick house with a terrace will delight your imagination and allow you to make childhood and adult dreams come true. You also have the opportunity to create huge and practical walls from concrete or give preference to classic wood and materials made from it. The first three options are good, but in terms of the combination of environmental properties and accessibility, natural wood undoubtedly wins. What could be better than living with your family and raising your children in a home made of natural elements that has decent environmental qualities.

The construction market offers wood as a building material in wide abundance, which will allow you to create many original solutions. Affordable pine or spruce with their pleasant pine aroma, durable larch and reliable oak - all this is your choice. Recently, it has become important to build houses from timber with a terrace. This material is presented in a wide variety and provides the implementation of numerous plans and ideas.

Possibilities of a house with an attic

As we have already said, a house with a large terrace is an endless field for creative possibilities. You can turn your attic into an open studio and turn it into a spacious and comfortable space. Thanks to the use of modern technological insulation solutions, even the most complex issues can be solved, and by choosing original windows from a large variety, you will create an individual home.

Advice!When choosing original design solutions, it is necessary to give preference to a company that has extensive experience working not only with houses, but also with other types of buildings. Here you can find projects of all levels of complexity and any size.

Some historical information

The design project appeared on the domestic market in the 17th and 18th centuries, when in France it was proposed to be used as a useful place in the house. Therefore, since then, the room located under the pitched roof has been called an attic.

The classic layout of this solution assumes that on the ground floor there are common rooms where you can receive guests and do housework. But if the house is one-story, then it is quite possible to combine residential and non-residential premises on one floor. The attic element is often reserved for an office or, conversely, a place for meditation and relaxation. Due to the design features, a low angle of inclination is created, and it becomes possible to rationally use the free space.

Thus, whatever project you choose and whatever material you prefer for building a house, the main thing is to devote time to this process and create what you really dream of. Ready-made design solutions will allow you to visualize the picture and create favorable conditions for the construction process.
