A modern 932 sq. ft. cottage designed to embrace the landscape
This modern 3-bedroom cottage plan with a large deck offers a compact, functional 932 sq. ft. living space, designed to serve as either a four-season cottage or a single-family home. Measuring 48 feet wide and 24 feet deep, the building features a horizontal profile that integrates seamlessly into a natural setting.
Its modern architecture is defined by clean lines, wood exterior cladding, and a low-slope shed roof. The entrance façade is intentionally understated, while the side facing the landscape features expansive windows. This layout concentrates the main openings toward the living areas and the deck.
The poured concrete foundation allows for a finished walk-out basement, significantly increasing the building's usable floor area.
An open-concept living area opening onto a 48-foot deck
The ground floor serves as the cottage's main living level. The kitchen, dining room, and living room are combined into an open-concept area that promotes easy flow and efficient use of space.
The kitchen (approximately 13'6" x 17'0") offers a spacious layout with ample workspace. It connects directly to the dining and living areas, creating a welcoming, shared living space.
A standout feature of this modern 3-bedroom cottage plan is its large outdoor deck, measuring approximately 48 by 13 feet. Accessible from the living area, the deck spans a significant portion of the façade, effectively extending the home’s living space outdoors. Its glass railing preserves unobstructed views of the property and the surrounding landscape. A first bedroom, measuring approximately 12'3" x 14'0", is also located on the main floor. A bathroom combined with a laundry area, along with a vestibule, completes the layout of this level.
A garden-level floor with two additional bedrooms
The lower level utilizes the poured concrete foundation to create a fully finished garden-level floor. Two additional bedrooms, measuring approximately 12'8" x 9'7", are situated in a more private section of the building.
This layout allows for the separation of sleeping areas across the two levels. The master bedroom can be located on the main floor, while the two garden-level bedrooms can accommodate children or guests, or be adapted for other uses.
The remainder of the lower level offers a spacious, versatile area that can be arranged according to the occupants' needs. A staircase provides a direct link to the main floor, while openings facing the outdoors take natural advantage of the site's topography.
Architecture designed for sloping sites
The inclusion of a garden-level floor makes this model particularly appealing for a sloped lot. Rather than completely concealing the lower level, the design uses the slope to expose a façade and enhance the relationship between the building and the landscape.
On the exterior, a combination of wood, dark window frames, and a shed roof reinforces the cottage's modern character. On the terrace side, large glass surfaces and clerestory windows maximize natural light in the common areas. With 932 sq. ft. on the main level, three bedrooms, a finished basement, a walk-out lower level, and an impressive deck, this plan offers a versatile solution for a primary or secondary residence.

When you purchase construction plans, they include the following elements:
. Elevations
. Floor plans
. Roof plans

With these plans, you will be able to apply for a building permit from your municipality, obtain quotes from local contractors, and proceed with construction—either by hiring a contractor or by building the home yourself.

It is your responsibility to ensure that the dimensions and design elements meet permit requirements and comply with local setback and coverage regulations. The plans can always be modified to meet your area's specific requirements.

However, if you would like a complete materials list, you can select that option when purchasing your plans, and one of our professionals will be happy to work with you on it.
CONSTRUCTION DETAILS:
All new home plans are sold with a standard construction details sheet—including specifications for poured concrete foundations and technical details for typical wall sections (compliant with current energy-efficiency standards).

It is the buyer's responsibility to verify applicable siting and construction standards with the municipality. Fees may apply for any additional required modifications.
