This one-story modern cottage plan brings together high-style charm and flexible living across approximately 3,248 sq ft. Featuring four bedrooms, four full baths, generous living zones including a separate living room, and an outdoor kitchen on the back porch, it captures elevated cottage living at its best.
Curb Appeal & Exterior Features
The exterior makes a striking statement with dark-toned finishes, a mix of thinset stone and board-and-batten siding, and soaring roof pitches. A welcoming covered front porch sets the tone with architectural character and warmth. 1
Open Great Room & Vaulted Kitchen
Step inside to an expansive great room—ideal for gatherings or quiet evenings. It flows effortlessly into the dining area and a U‑shaped kitchen beneath soaring cathedral ceilings that elevate the space with light and openness. 2
Additional Living Zone
Just off the main great space, a separate living room offers informal retreat or entertaining flexibility—perfect for watching movies, reading, or community space. 3
Guest Suite & Closet Space
The home includes a luxurious guest suite with its own bath and a spacious walk-in closet, providing a private haven for visitors or multigenerational comfort. 4
Outdoor Living & Expansion Potential
The rear covered porch features a built-in outdoor kitchen, transforming outdoor time into elegant living and dining events. Above, an unfinished bonus area (~651 sq ft) offers endless future uses—media room, playroom, or guest suite. 5
