25 × 50 house plan — 1250 sq ft, 3 BHK
A 25 × 50 gives you a 20 ft buildable width and 42 ft of depth: enough for three bedrooms in a line along one side, with the hall, dining and kitchen along the other. It is the most efficient 3 BHK plot among the common Indian sizes.

Designing a 25 × 50
Twenty feet of width splits as 12 + 8 or 11 + 9. Run the bedrooms down the 11–12 ft side and the service spine down the other.
Three bedrooms and only two toilets is the honest trade on 1250 sq ft. A third toilet costs about 35 sq ft, which comes straight out of a bedroom.
Vastu for a 25 × 50 plot
The zones above follow the standard arrangement: kitchen in the south-east, master bedroom in the south-west, pooja and water in the north-east, toilets in the north-west, and the centre of the plan kept open. Which facing you have changes where the main door sits, not where the rooms go — see the guides for north, east, west and south facing plots.
Frequently asked questions
How many sq ft is a 25x50 site?
1250 sq ft, about 139 sq yards, with roughly 840 sq ft buildable per floor.
Is 25x50 better than 30x40 for a 3 BHK?
For a single-floor 3 BHK, yes. Both are similar in area, but the extra depth of a 25 × 50 lets you line three bedrooms up along one wall, which a 24 ft wide 30 × 40 envelope cannot do without a corridor.
