From classic stone exteriors to charming wraparound porches, these small cottages are designed with lifestyle and livability in mind. All our cottage house plans include CAD and PDF files, free foundation changes, structural engineering, and an unlimited-build license. You won’t find this value anywhere else.

What Defines a Cottage House Plan?

Cottage house plans typically feature cozy layouts under 2,000 square feet, steep gabled roofs, and abundant charm. These designs are often one or one-and-a-half stories and highlight natural materials like wood and stone. Key elements include:

  • Compact footprints perfect for small lots
  • Open floor plans with functional flow
  • Gabled or dormered roofs for a fairytale look
  • Charming details like shutters, flower boxes, and decorative trim
  • Outdoor living with wraparound porches or decks

These homes aren’t just beautiful—they’re practical. Cottage style house plans are easy to maintain and often more affordable to build than larger homes, making them ideal for retirees, first-time buyers, or vacation dwellers.
