Anyone who decides to build their own home often does not know where to start. But planning the rooms is not the very first step in the process of building a home. Before developing a project or drawing up a detailed work plan, it is necessary to answer the following questions: what is the total living area of the future home; will it be heated? if so, how? The subsequent stages of construction depend on the answers to them.
Layout of a one-story house with a 6x8 stove
The 6x6 building is most likely a country house, in which it is possible to live not all year round, but only in the warm season. Therefore, its layout is simple due to its small footprint. Its drawing is also simple due to the lack of a heating system. And for year-round use, buildings are built that are more spacious, for example, and larger. But then stove heating is simply necessary.
However, a construction company can offer a heating system. It will include a general and detailed construction plan. The customer who wishes to have a house with a stove can make his own amendments, which will be immediately taken into account by the contractor. This option is called custom construction.
The client can order from the company not only a finished project, but also the construction of a standard house with already resolved planning issues.
Option for internal layout and location of the stove in the house
If the customer fully accepts the proposed plan, then construction will cost him much less.
Advantages
When the layout is well thought out taking into account a specific heating system, the installation of the stove practically does not depend on the building material from which the home is built. It is suitable for both wooden and brick houses. Its advantage is that there is always a wide choice of fuel for heating premises: coal, peat, firewood, even cardboard and dry tree branches. The user himself decides what to heat with, what is more accessible and costs less.
Heating with electricity is more expensive, and not all residential areas are equipped with a gas pipeline.
The next advantage is that heating the house does not depend on the heating season of the heating plant, on emergency repairs and long-term interruptions in fuel supplies. The stove is autonomous, its operating mode is determined by the user himself, who does not need a plan for seasonal system shutdowns.

The ability of a stove to create a cozy and comfortable atmosphere is well known. Thanks to this quality, no other heating system can compare with it. It’s nice to sit with a book by the stove, inhale the smell of resinous wood and listen to its quiet crackling. This is reminiscent of distant times, shrouded in romance. In addition to these advantages, the stove can be equipped so that it becomes an original addition to the interior.
The Russian stove gives the room a special charm. In terms of heat capacity, nothing can compare with it. It is able to accumulate heat and then gradually release it, maintaining constant coziness and comfort in the hut. In the past, it performed a cooking and heating function. Today it is quite rare.
Only those who like it will decide to decorate their apartments with it. True, there are no more stove makers who don’t need a drawing to build one.
But recently, designing a house with a fireplace is a common proposal from construction companies. This fashionable heating device provides heat, but does not store any heat. Used more as a decorative element.
The century of technological progress has made its own adjustments. Today, it is common to have a house with a stove that runs not only on solid fuel, but also on electricity, gas, and fuel oil. But the most affordable heating material is still firewood.
Wood-burning brick oven
Both warm and beautiful.
This is truly the most worthwhile permanent structure (besides the house itself, of course). And the advantages of a wood heating stove are such that their owners may be the envy of residents of other houses, including private ones.
Judge for yourself:
- Stone as a material is capable of accumulating and releasing heat, while using hobs from this structure you can build a household unit that will not only heat your home, but also cook food and dry clothes;
- The stove is unpretentious in the choice of fuel, of course, there is no need to stuff it with all sorts of rubbish, but it will happily accept branches, firewood, paper, cardboard, peat, and coal. As well as modern types of fuel for solid fuel stoves;
- The most pleasant moment in the operation of such a design is that this heating device does not depend on accidents on the lines, or on interruptions in the supply of one or another type of energy. The stove has always worked and is working completely autonomously;
- Even if your house is stuffed with inventions that make human life easier, then having a stove as an alternative and emergency source of heat is becoming not just fashionable, but also relevant. And honestly admit to yourself that all these inventions make your life easier only up to the point where electricity is available;
- There is something mystical in the living warmth of a stove; it is not for nothing that all holidays with elements of fairy tales and mysticism are associated with fireplaces, stoves and fire.
Therefore, heating wood stoves for home and garden will remain for a long time, if not the main, then the most popular alternative source of heat, and until the price of expenses for the main media supplied centrally is compared with the price of firewood and other things you will need light your stove.
The beginning of a big business is born on paper
The quantity, area, and location are taken into account.
And it's called a project. The most popular projects for own houses are wooden house projects with stove heating. And it doesn’t matter what kind of house you will ultimately build. Projects of houses made of timber with stove heating, projects of houses made of brick, it doesn’t matter - for each of them there are standards that are already prescribed.
This document is building codes and regulations, a kind of general instruction for all cases of construction life. And they declare the following principles that must be taken into account:
- Stove heating can only be planned in one and two-story buildings. In houses with more floors, it is necessary to plan and install mini boiler rooms;
- The surface of a stone stove should not heat above a temperature of 120 degrees Celsius; this, of course, does not apply to the metal parts of the stove (dampers, hob, etc.);
For your information! If you are reconstructing the heating system in an old house and want to install stove heating as the main or alternative, then do not connect the two systems to each other, the stationary centralized one and yours, they are not compatible.
- When determining the area of the stove to be installed, keep in mind that each square meter of the house produces a certain amount of energy depending on the outside temperature, the number of windows, doors, materials from which the walls are made, the presence of insulation and other energy-saving and energy-consuming aspects.
And why not combine a stove and electricity, for example as in the photo.
Note! In a standard brick house, 1 square meter of area will produce about 60 kcal/hour, this is in frost of minus 25 degrees Celsius. It is possible to make up for these costs with a well-built stove with an area of 1 square meter for a total housing area of up to 35 square meters. Here is a specific calculation example.
And the stove has a place
The oven must be in the center.
We are already so accustomed to the fact that heating and cooking structures are located somewhere in the corner of the kitchen wall or hallway. So that they don’t get noticed, so that they don’t twist under our feet, we involuntarily want to transfer the same rules to stove heating.
But, unfortunately, stove heating has its own rules for the placement of the main structure and the hob and ash pan. So:
- The stove structure should be built in the center of the room. It doesn’t matter whether you will provide a heating panel for it, and then use it to zone the rooms, or whether the stove will be located in the center as an independent structure, the main thing is that it is there and not in any other place;
- There is one more rule for the placement of the stove. The firebox and hob should go into the kitchen area or onto the veranda. That's where the dirtiest things happen. But the heating surface and fireplace should go into the living room and bedrooms;
- According to all the calculations of specialists, one stove design is enough to heat three rooms located nearby. To heat several floors, or heat more rooms, it is necessary to install more stoves;
For your information! Currently, there is such a thing as a heated circuit. Its purpose can be monofunctional, it can be multifunctional, depending on this, experts recommend installing the following types of heaters: a Russian stove, a fireplace with a stove, or just a fireplace. A properly selected system allows you to use two floors for living all year round, or use the second floor only for the warm season.
Installation and operation rules
The shape and appearance of the stove is fixed by its drawing. Many people try to install it somewhere in a corner so that it doesn’t bother anyone or take up much space. But this is not the main installation criterion. As a rule, its most rational location is reflected in every heated house project developed by the company.
In, as well as in or in, it is preferable to place the furnace structure in the very center.
Detailed house plan with 8x8 fireplace stove
Then the effect from it will be greatest, because it will successfully warm up all the rooms. As practice has shown, it is impossible to install it near an external wall, so as not to heat the street.
If the plan for a home with a stove system is developed professionally, then after its implementation it will be warm and cozy even all year round. It is recommended to plan the stove in suburban or no higher than two-story buildings. If it is still cool on the second floor, then some residents close it for the winter, living only on the well-heated first floor.
A very important rule: a house with a stove must have effective thermal protection. Otherwise, all efforts to heat it will be in vain. And the money to buy fuel will literally go down the drain. You should not skimp on insulating your home. True, not a single company will offer a house design without thermal insulation. But if its layout has a centralized heating system, then such a construction plan is not suitable for installing a stove.
Layout of a Finnish house with a 6x6 stove
It is a mistake to think that if you install a powerful stove in a small building, for example, 6x6, then a small amount of firewood will be sufficient for heating. This is not true at all. All of them will go only to slightly warm it up. And the rooms will remain cold. Each house with a stove is equipped with a heating structure corresponding to the space it is intended to heat. So, if the home hearth is 6x9, then the heating structure should be more heat-intensive.
Another important rule that should not be neglected is installing the stove on a separate foundation. It cannot be the same for her and for the whole house. This should be clearly demonstrated both by the general design of the dwelling and by a separate drawing of the firebox structure.
Detailed drawing of a log house with a stove size 5x6
The fact is that the soil sags differently under different weights. As a result, the stove may become warped and cracks will appear. As a result, not only heat will enter the rooms, but also smoke and carbon monoxide.
Knowing the installation rules, you should not forget about the rules of use. A house with a stove requires strict compliance with fire safety regulations. And it doesn’t matter what size it is, 6x6 or much larger. It should be remembered that the chimney damper is closed on time. If the coals are not burned enough, carbon monoxide will fill the room. And the consequences of this are very sad. If you close it too late, precious heat will escape into the chimney. Furnace repairs are usually carried out by the person who installed it.
Where to place the stove in a wooden house
The plan of a house with stove heating is primarily built taking into account the size and location of the stove.
It depends on the area of the building: it is assumed that 1 sq. a meter of stove heats 35 square meters. m. area of the house. Even if you do without a water circuit, the stove is capable of completely heating several rooms, although the heat from it will still be distributed unevenly.
There are several important conditions when choosing a location for the stove:
- It is usually located in the middle of the building. It is advisable to plan it in such a way that the furnace part is located in the kitchen or other non-residential premises to ensure convenient maintenance.
- If the building has several floors, several furnaces will need to be installed. In this case, you need to plan them so that the heat is distributed approximately evenly throughout the building. If you plan to heat a house with an attic by stove, then you can use it only in the warm season, since it will be extremely difficult to install a separate heater on it.
- There are several heating options, and they depend on the layout of a 7x7 house with stove heating. You can use a classic Russian stove, or you can combine it with a fireplace: in this case, the house will be heated both by an open flame and by smoke wells.
The main brick part must go into the living spaces in order to effectively transfer heat to them. At the same time, it is not advisable to cover it with any objects or furniture, so as not to reduce the efficiency of the heater.
In addition, you can provide both simple and combined options with a water circuit: with its help you can ensure uniform heating of the entire house, and it does not matter in which part of it the stove will be located. With this scheme, the main amount of heat will be spent on heating water in the heat exchanger, and the walls of the furnace themselves will heat up weakly.
Thus, the plan of a house with 8x8 stove heating can vary significantly: you can build a classic Russian hut, in which the stove will occupy a central place, or you can use modern equipment options with a water circuit to heat all rooms of the house.
Fire safety measures and stove finishing options
In order for a wooden house with stove heating to last for a long time, you need to take care of its maximum effective protection from fire. A fireplace and Russian stove pose a threat due to an open flame; in addition, unfinished walls will heat up quite strongly. This creates a risk of burns if accidentally touched; in addition, wooden walls and ceilings will be in danger.
During construction, the furnace is positioned so that the walls are not adjacent to the ceilings, this will avoid overheating and possible fire. There are several rules for the location and finishing of a stove in a wooden house:
- All structures must be treated with fire retardants. These substances increase the wood’s resistance to fire, they allow it to withstand open flames for a long time and will not themselves support combustion. Not only walls, but also ceilings and floor boards are treated with fire retardants.
- The space in front of the furnace firebox must be lined with metal sheets. This will prevent fire from accidentally falling coal and protect the house from fire.
- The stove chimney must be whitewashed with lime mortar. It not only makes it more aesthetically pleasing, but also allows you to see black cracks in places where smoke may pass through. This will allow you to notice and eliminate the malfunction in time.
- The stove is installed on a foundation, and there should be a small space between it and the floor, which is called a setback.
- The distance from the stove firebox to the furniture or curtains should be at least a meter. An accidental spark or a fallen ember can set household items on fire, making it extremely difficult to extinguish the fire.
All these measures must be taken into account when drawing up a design project: you have to select finishing materials that are as resistant to fire as possible and find solutions that will be both beautiful and safe.
The stove itself can be plastered using the same mortar that was used for masonry, or it can be finished with fire-resistant tiles - tiles. Once upon a time, it was precisely this kind of ceramic tile that decorated the houses of wealthy villagers; it was supplied with a bright pattern applied by hand.
The stove can be turned into a full-fledged decorative element of the room, which will diversify the decor and add a special ancient Russian flavor to it. A stove with a fireplace, on the contrary, will create a harmonious European atmosphere.
What could the interior of a house with stove heating look like?
The interior of a rural house with stove heating can be made interesting and beautiful, but it is necessary to take into account the features of such heating and choose materials of high strength and practicality. Firing a furnace is inevitably accompanied by the formation of soot and soot, which you have to constantly fight with. The ceiling in a house with stove heating can be decorated using several material options:
There are other options, but materials must be selected taking into account maximum fire safety. Floor and wall coverings can also be selected at your own discretion, but it is best to choose non-flammable options or treat all wooden elements with fire retardants. If the furnace firebox goes into the kitchen, the optimal solution for the floor would be ceramic or porcelain tiles: they are beautiful, durable and not at all afraid of heat.
Combination of modern interior styles with stove heating
The Russian stove has long been the center of the house, it gave warmth and life to the inhabitants. Today the situation has changed, and it is still possible to create interesting interior solutions in a house where a stove is chosen for heating. By itself, it easily turns into a decorative element; in addition, you can take care of properly selected furniture and decorative details.
There are several options for placing and finishing the stove, which will allow you to harmoniously integrate it into the interior:
- If the stove is equipped with a hob, and its firebox opens into the kitchen, you can use the simplest finishing option - a mud hut. This is a finish using whitewashed plaster, on which small cracks will soon begin to appear.
- A tiled stove will become an original decoration of any living room. Bright tiles with a repeating pattern attract attention and look no less interesting than the most luxurious fireplace portal. The design of this stove goes well with log walls and other wood construction options.
- Finishing with simple tiles is a cheap solution, although it will not be particularly durable. However, the stove can be made a beautiful element of the room, and over time the color and appearance of the cladding can be changed.
This design looks interesting and original in a kitchen decorated in Russian or Ukrainian style. This “aged” surface will go well with embroidered towels, onion braids and other attributes reminiscent of ancient village life.
The Russian stove goes harmoniously with antique furniture: for the living room you can order a round table and cover it with a beautiful tablecloth; interesting decorative elements will be a cuckoo clock, carved furniture, chests, benches, etc. With a little imagination, you can decorate the house in an interesting and interesting way. at the same time it is very cozy, the traditional atmosphere can be quite calm and comfortable.
The Russian stove is the breadwinner of the family and the protector of the house from severe cold. And today, stove heating has not lost its popularity, and in quite modern houses you can find this type of heaters. Various finishing options will allow you to turn your house into a real hut from a Russian fairy tale.

As modern megacities grow, their average resident increasingly feels deprived of fresh air, free space, and personal space. That is why more and more of our compatriots intend to leave the city limits in order to retire for the weekend in their own village house.
The simplest options are small summer houses that do not require a heating system or wall insulation. But you can only relax in such houses during the holiday season.
An all-season house is suitable for year-round living, but its construction involves solving very difficult problems. The most pressing problem that will need to be solved is to ensure high-quality heating of residential real estate. The ideal solution in this case would be one that can solve the problem of heating a residential area, even in the most severe winter, cold weather. You can also use a fireplace to heat your countryside property.
The choice of one or another heating option for a living area depends on the individual needs of the owner. If between the quality of heating your home and sophistication and comfort, you chose the second option, then we strongly recommend choosing a fireplace. Its peculiarity is that it is capable of heating the room in which it is installed for only a short period of time.
The fireplace, despite the obvious shortcomings in the context of the heating system of a country house, is capable of creating a bright and beautiful fiery flame - an excellent solution for those who like to retire while reading a book, drinking tea, or philosophical reflection.
More practical house owners can be recommended to study in detail what the layout of a village house with a Russian stove
and what is included in this concept. And the first thing you should pay immediate attention to is the ability of a brick stove for a home to store heat for a long time. And this is not to mention the possibility of preparing many aromatic and satisfying dishes, which is simply impossible in a regular fireplace. Therefore, it is not surprising that the vast majority of country house projects being developed include the presence of a Russian stove.
This version of a village house is simple in terms of execution and effective in terms of year-round use. We will dwell in more detail on the issue of planning a village house with a Russian stove in our next articles.
Stove heating makes its own adjustments to the architecture of the house - professionals begin designing a building by choosing the type of hearth and place for its construction. The design of a house with a Russian stove is always different from a project in which the main role is played by a “Swedish” or a modern cast-iron convection oven. The main task of the designer is to correctly determine the installation location of the heating device and plan the placement of rooms so that each room is warm and dry.
Layout
There are a lot of options for planning a 6x6 one-story dwelling with a heating system. The most common plan for such a house is as follows:
- Bedroom 8 m2;
- The stove has a firebox on the kitchen side, but its walls open onto the living room and bedroom;
- Toilet;
- Hallway.
The design of such a house may vary depending on the user's requirements. But the main thing is that the stove structure should be located in the very middle of the home and be built into the internal partitions. If it is located across the wall from the common room, then its layout is such that it can be heated by the corner of the stove. Professional calculations have shown that one stove can successfully heat three rooms located around it.
To heat living spaces larger than 6x8 or 6x9, it may turn out that one stove does not fully cope with its function.
Project with a 9×11 house layout with a Kuznetsov stove
Then, for example, a village house was equipped with a small, tall stove for heating, which was completely unsuitable for cooking. For a medium-sized country house, and especially with an area of 8 x 8 in a frosty winter, it will also not be superfluous.
The layout of a 7x7 home is not much different from the arrangement of rooms in a 6x6 house, except for the possibility of slightly increasing the area of some rooms.
Both buildings are square in shape and differ only in three square meters. Therefore, the development drawing will have only minor deviations. But the 6x8 house has a completely different design, because, unlike, it is a rectangular building. Here you can increase the kitchen area to install a larger oven. After all, it must heat a home with walls that are not equidistant from it. The drawing of a 6x9 building also differs little from the drawing of a 6x8 building. But for a living space, every meter of space increases the comfort of living. At the same time, it increases the overall cost of construction. However, in any case, stove heating is the most affordable and economical way to keep a private home warm.
The layout of a 6x6 house with an attic must be carried out not only taking into account building codes, but also in compliance with other requirements. Proper organization of design work will allow you to build a comfortable building. In addition, it will enable owners not to spend extra money when purchasing building materials.
Layout of all floors of a 6x6 house with an attic
Often, when starting a project, many masters make the same mistake. They are building a full-fledged one with many rooms. But when winter comes, followed by energy bills, a sobering moment comes. You can avoid unnecessary expenses during the construction and further operation of the house by choosing in advance the type of house 6x6 with an attic for construction.
What is the difference between an attic and a traditional second floor? During its construction, no money is spent on construction and. Which in most cases is practically not used by the owners of the house. Therefore, in addition to the costs of heating and maintaining the premises, the costs of maintaining the attic are added.
Layout option for a 6x6 cottage with an attic
An attic is a properly organized space under the roof that is used for the benefit of all family members. With proper insulation, heat will not escape through the roof slab. By the way, many craftsmen make windows in slopes, which allow you to save on artificial lighting.
But the main advantage of this type of construction is that much less construction and finishing materials will be spent during the construction of the facility. And therefore money from the family budget.
Layout of houses with a stove
A new home project with stove heating always involves making difficult decisions. Before considering a specific construction plan, it is necessary not only to determine the size of the total area, but also to consider the number and convenient location of living rooms. In addition, it doesn’t hurt to decide on the material from which the future home will be made.
Compact one-room house
The building consists of one living room measuring 15 square meters. In the middle there is a stove, next to which there is a kitchen with an area of 8 m2. The last heated room is the bathroom. There is a veranda at the front of the house.

Flaws
- Not suitable for a family of three or more.
- The veranda is not heated, which means it is not used in the winter.
Two-room wooden house
This plan includes two living rooms, bathrooms and a terrace. The house is shaped like a square with a side of 9 m. The stove is installed in such a way that all rooms are heated. This project uses wood as a base for the walls, ceiling and floor. The wooden structure does not allow cold to pass through and retains heat well.

Flaws
- Space is still limited.
- There is no separate living room or kitchen.
Three-room building layout
A more serious project, which is designed for a large family. And although the house is large, the proper location of the heat source can equally warm each room. Two bedrooms and a living room have access to hot walls. The only unheated places are the storage room and the bathroom. Just as in the previous case, the kitchen is combined with the living room.
Layout of a three-room house with a stove
Advantages
- There is a lot of free space, there are separate bedrooms. One can be equipped as a children's room.
- Proper distribution of work space, there are no empty useless rooms or extensions.
- The corridor is combined with the kitchen, which means light will penetrate well there. In addition, this approach visually increases the volume of the room.
- The pantry has no windows or active heating, which means it is perfect for storing food. It can serve as a cellar.
Design project of a modern kitchen-living room with stove
Flaws
- The bathroom is not heated. A cold bath or toilet can be uncomfortable.
- The corridor does not close, which means some of the heat from the kitchen will escape through the front door.
These are the main projects, variations of which are usually included in the catalog of winter houses with a Russian stove. These buildings have their pros and cons. You need to choose the right option for yourself. If the building meets the necessary requirements, life in it will become quite comfortable and economical.

What to consider when planning
When starting work on drawing up estimate documentation before starting construction work, the foreman needs to understand the following:
- what purposes is the future 6x6 house with an attic intended for?
- how many people will permanently reside in it;
- will there be guests staying there?
An example of correct and incorrect attic layout
The first point implies the following: will such a building be intended for permanent residence of the whole family, or will people come to it only for a while (for the summer season, for example). If we are talking about, then the project needs to provide for the features inherent in this type of building. If this will be a permanent home for the whole family, then this must be taken into account in the design documentation.
It is important to know for how many residents it is being built. If this is a family of three, then the number of private and common rooms will be the same. In the case where the family consists of four or more people, the location of the rooms and their number will be completely different. In addition, the layout of a 6 by 6 house should also take into account the possibility of accommodating potential guests.
Layout of the first floor and attic of a 6 by 6 house
They will need a separate room and, quite likely, with its own separate room. This also needs to be taken into account when drawing up documentation.
Brick wood stove
Have you already decided to install a stove in your home? Then you need to draw up a detailed project on paper. In general, in fact, it is necessary to plan a house with stove heating. Here you should indicate the building rules and regulations that provide for many heating features. Thus, the project is nothing more than instructions that will be useful to you later.
If you live in a two-story house, then it is more advisable to organize a boiler room in it. A stone oven should not heat up more than one hundred and twenty degrees Celsius. This requirement does not apply to metal stoves, since they heat up much higher than brick ones.
When connecting the stove to the water jacket, you should take into account such characteristics as the total area of the home, the number of window and door openings, as well as the type of material from which the house is built and the insulation of the building. As you know, one square meter of fireplace can heat up to thirty-five square meters of home. Indicators are taken into account at street temperatures not lower than minus twenty-five degrees Celsius.
Let us note such indicators as the heat transfer of household stoves, depending on the type of fireplace. So, thick plastered stoves or hearths in a metal case have a heat transfer coefficient of four hundred to five hundred kcal * m2 / h. Thick-walled tiled stoves - from five hundred to six hundred kcal*m2/h, thin-walled ones weighing more than a thousand kilograms - from five hundred to six hundred kcal*m2/h and thin-walled ones weighing less than a thousand kilograms - from four hundred fifty to five hundred fifty kcal*m2/h.
Project and materials
In drawing up the estimate, an important role is played by taking into account the materials that the owner intends to use for the construction of his 6 by 6 house with an attic. For this type of building they use:
- brick or cinder block;
- foam concrete blocks;
- concrete;
- wood (logs or beams);
- SIP panels.
Considering that the attic combines a full-fledged residential floor and, its weight is much less than the mass of building materials that will be spent on the construction of a standard second floor. Therefore, for the construction of a country house, in which seasonal residence is expected, the owners most often choose wood as the main building material. It should be noted that purchasing solid beams and beams of such length is very problematic.
Project of a 6x6 cottage made of wooden beams
The stone structure will be a reliable home for the inhabitants of a 6x6 house with an attic, who intend to stay there constantly, both in winter and in summer. However, the cost of building materials for the construction of the facility will be an order of magnitude higher than for a wooden building.
House project 6 by 6 made of stone with an attic
The choice of material is made after the owner of the future decides on its purpose.
Arrangement of rooms in a two-story house measuring 6x6 m
Since the possibilities for building rooms with such a modest size are limited, the first thing to give up in such a house is the corridor. Without using it, you can free up quite a lot of space for building more popular rooms.
In addition, you will be able to save on laying communications, since everyone will be closer to each other. To increase the space in a country house, it is worth thinking at the design stage about having several levels in the building.
Layout of the first floor and attic of a 6x6 house
Thanks to this project, you will be able to effectively plan the entire living space into functional zones - rooms for relaxation or active activities. The most convenient location for rooms such as the first floor is considered.
In addition, at this level it is worthwhile to locate common areas, such as a recreation room or a staircase to the upper floor. For the second level, the best choice would be a recreation area, which includes a sleeping area, as well as a second bathroom.
But the design of the floors directly depends on how many people will live in the small building. If there are only two of you there, then the second level is best left for furnishing one spacious bedroom. For a building project for a large family, it is best to use the classic housing arrangement, which includes several bedrooms with more modest sizes.
Layout option for all floors of a 6x6 house
The classic distribution of space into living areas includes a plan in which the first floor is entirely dedicated to active rooms, such as a kitchen, dining room or hallway. In addition, rooms with different functionality can be combined into one room, which will help save space without losing all the buildings necessary for life.
Such combined construction will help create a feeling of more space. In order for a spacious room, which has been divided into several functional areas, to be properly decorated, it should be furnished in a special way.
Using these tips will help decorate your country home and make it more practical and convenient. It is worth thinking about the correct location of the rooms in relation to each other. For example, the kitchen in your house should be as close as possible to the space, as well as the toilet and hallway. This is especially true if you need to bring heavy bags of groceries into the house.

And a nearby bathroom will allow you to save on water supply communications, and will also reduce the number of wet areas in the building.
Features of stove-heated house projects
When designing larger homes, you need to plan more carefully. Let’s make a reservation right away: we provide the most simplified layouts with the expectation of maximum savings on heating costs. And with stove heating, the simpler the better. This is also why we recommend installing a canopy (vestibule) in a house with stove heating.
As you can see, the pictures show four basic options for a house with a dirty area of 64 square meters. Of course, for a family with children, such a house will not be too big, because the children are growing. But it is cheap to heat and quick to build - after all, it is a one-story house 8*8. I know examples of the construction of such houses with a budget of 500-700 thousand rubles. This, you see, is very accessible.
Let's look at each example separately. Figures 1 and 2 show the same layout with different oven placements. In the first case, the stove is tucked into a corner. This is convenient when the stove performs not only a heating function, but also, for example, with a stove bench - it is more convenient to place it to the side. This is all thought out privately.

The second option illustrates the location of the stove closer to the doors of the bathroom and bedroom. Here we free up all the walls for arranging a kitchen-studio, recreation area, windows and more.
In the third and fourth options, we are creating two small bedrooms and making the studio smaller. Thus, the recreation areas partially “go” into the bedrooms. However, the studio can accommodate a kitchen and a small sofa. What is the difference between the third and fourth options? If you want warmth in the living room and sleep cool (20-21 degrees), then this option is for you.
The same layouts can be extrapolated to houses with an area of up to 100 sq.m. Simply increase the room proportionally and the furnace power accordingly.
Each of the previous examples of planning a one-story house can be made two-story - just think about the place where to build the staircase. The specific layout depends on the wishes of the owners, family composition, lifestyle and work of adults, age of children and many other nuances. Therefore, there can be a lot of options.
Let's take one of the options as an example. For example, a house for a family with two or three rapidly growing children.
