Charming 3-Bedroom Cottage Home with Garage and Cozy Porches

The Charming 3-Bedroom Cottage Home is a single-story residence providing 1,395 square feet of heated living area on a footprint measuring 39 feet 8 inches wide by 58 feet 6 inches deep. This design prioritizes a compact, efficient layout that maximizes interior volume through a 6:12 roof pitch and 9-foot ceiling heights, creating a sense of scale within a 1,395 square foot envelope. The exterior is defined by a 58 square foot covered front porch and a 49 square foot rear porch, establishing a clear connection between the interior living zones and the lot.

The interior architecture centers on an open-concept core where the kitchen, dining area, and family room share an uninterrupted floor plan. The kitchen utilizes a central island and a dedicated walk-in pantry to provide utility, while the vaulted ceiling adds vertical dimension to the common area. This arrangement ensures that the transition between the main social zones remains direct and clear, supporting a logic of simplified circulation throughout the primary living space.

A split-bedroom configuration places the primary suite in a private wing to separate it from the two secondary bedrooms. The primary suite includes a double vanity bathroom and a walk-in closet. The remaining square footage accommodates a dedicated home office or study, a laundry utility room, and two full bathrooms, ensuring the floor plan remains adaptable for remote work or guest needs without requiring additional square footage.

Structural construction relies on stick roof framing, reaching a maximum building height of 19 feet 6 inches. The foundation supports a 280 square foot front-load, one-car garage that maintains a standard profile for the building’s exterior. By integrating the garage into the primary structure, the plan maintains a cohesive elevation while providing necessary vehicle storage and utility access.

Key Features: 1,395 sq ft living area, 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, front-load 1-car garage, 9-foot ceilings, vaulted ceiling volume, walk-in pantry, home office study, split-bedroom layout, covered front and rear porches.
