I'm planning on building the 14x24 "Little House" and was wondering how tall it is from bottom of floor joists to peak.

w* to the forum.

I'd say about 15 to 16 feet from finish floor to peak with a 12/12 pitch roof.  Plus whatever is below finish floor - foundation - piers etc.

If you want more specific I can measure my garage built off of the little house plan design I modified to timber frame - same size though.

I can just stand up and clear for a couple feet wide in the middle of the loft area.

I was guessing 15 ft so I was close thanks.

That's based on 8' walls.  I went with 10' walls..... If you do, adjust accordingly.
