710-Sq-Ft Craftsman Cottage with Open-Plan Living

710 sq ft · 1 bed · 1 bath · 1 story · 31' 0" wide × 28' 0" deep · Plans from $995

This 710-square-foot cottage suits a household looking for a compact, accessible one-bedroom home with the main living spaces gathered together. Its open kitchen, dining area, and living room sit beneath a vaulted ceiling, giving the modest footprint an airy feel.

• Tapered columns and textured stone bring Craftsman character to the front elevation. The one-story plan measures 31 feet wide by 28 feet deep and includes a 95-square-foot covered front porch.
• The kitchen, dining area, and living room share an open layout for everyday use. A vaulted ceiling over these spaces adds height and helps the connected rooms feel more generous.
• The 11-by-11-foot primary bedroom has a tray ceiling and walk-in closet, with the full bathroom nearby. The layout keeps the home’s sleeping and bathing spaces close together.
• A laundry closet sits directly across from the primary bedroom, keeping laundry within easy reach. The plan has no garage, so it keeps the footprint focused on the home’s living spaces.
• At the rear, a 58-square-foot covered porch provides space for grilling and enjoying the outdoors. It extends the living area outside without adding another enclosed room.
• Choose from a slab, crawlspace, basement, daylight basement, or walkout foundation. These options give the plan several ways to meet different foundation preferences.
