Description

Dreaming of an easy-to-build getaway or downsizer? This small cottage blueprint delivers about 840 sq ft of single-story comfort. Step from the covered porch into an open great-room that blends living, dining, and an island kitchen—perfect for relaxed weekends or everyday life.

Two well-sized bedrooms sit to one side for privacy, served by a full bath, while a handy powder room keeps guests comfortable. A stacked-laundry nook, ample closets, and wide windows make the modest footprint live large, whether you build it on a lakeside lot or a suburban infill site.
