Charming Cottage Design
This 2,136-square-foot cottage combines traditional character with a comfortable single-story layout. The plan offers two to three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and one half bathroom.
Measuring 63 feet 4 inches wide by 59 feet deep, the home creates a generous footprint while maintaining a welcoming cottage scale.
Spacious Main Floor
All 2,136 square feet of heated living space are arranged on the first floor. Ten-foot ceilings throughout the main level contribute to a bright and spacious interior feel.
The home reaches approximately 21 feet 10 inches in height, complementing its cottage-inspired exterior profile.
Open Living Arrangement
The main living areas use an open floor plan that connects the kitchen and gathering spaces. A kitchen island provides a central workspace, while the walk-in pantry adds practical storage.
A breakfast nook creates a dedicated space for casual meals, and the fireplace provides a focal point within the shared living area.
Private Bedroom Layout
The plan features a split-bedroom arrangement with the primary bedroom located on the main floor. The clustered bedroom configuration keeps the sleeping areas organized within the single-story layout.
The optional third bedroom provides additional flexibility for households that need another private sleeping space.
Flexible Basement Space
A full 2,136-square-foot basement is available beneath the main level. Foundation options include basement, walkout basement, and finished basement configurations.
A finished walkout basement option can provide additional usable space, while an unfinished basement can remain available for future development or storage.
Functional Service Areas
The laundry room is located on the main floor for convenient access. A mud room provides another practical transition space within the home.
An office is also included, creating a dedicated area for work, study, or other activities separate from the main living spaces.
Welcoming Porch Spaces
The plan includes a front porch and rear porch, along with a stacked porch arrangement. Together, these outdoor areas provide 735 square feet of porch and patio space.
The covered outdoor spaces extend the home’s living environment and add flexibility for relaxing or enjoying the surrounding property.
Strong Cottage Roofline
A 10:12 main roof pitch gives the home a pronounced roofline that complements its cottage character.
The exterior framing is specified as 2×4 wood, with a 2×6 conversion available as an option. The roof profile contributes to the home’s traditional appearance.
Flexible Foundation Choices
The plan offers several foundation configurations, including slab, monolithic slab, crawlspace, basement, walkout basement, finished basement, and finished walkout basement options.
This range allows the design to adapt to different site conditions and provides flexibility for how the lower level can be used.
Versatile Cottage Living
With two to three bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, an open living arrangement, kitchen island, breakfast nook, office, mud room, fireplace, and generous porch space, this cottage offers a well-rounded layout.
The combination of single-story living and flexible basement options creates additional possibilities for households seeking comfortable everyday spaces with room to expand.
