2BHK plan suggestion for 800 sq.ft

800 sq.ft is the standard compact 2BHK in Chennai: living-dining, two bedrooms, two toilets and a kitchen. Keep a straight corridor and stack wet walls. A third bedroom does not fit without shrinking rooms below comfort.

We draw the plan to your plot setbacks. WhatsApp a site photo if you want the 2BHK tested on your dimensions before you pick a package.
