A modern and functional small cabin plan


If you're looking for a small cabin plan that combines contemporary design, comfort, and simplicity, this 780 sq ft model is an ideal solution for fully enjoying a natural setting. Designed to maximize space in a compact 20' x 20' footprint, this contemporary cabin offers bright architecture, a versatile mezzanine, and an interior layout designed for both relaxation and extended stays.


Compact architecture with contemporary lines


With its contemporary style, this small cabin stands out for its clean lines and warm aesthetic. The gable roof creates a timeless silhouette that blends harmoniously into wooded, mountainous, or riverside environments. The contrasting exterior colors and well-placed windows allow you to enjoy abundant natural light throughout the day.


Built on a pile foundation, this model easily adapts to various types of terrain, including sloping areas, wetlands, or environments requiring a lightweight and durable structure. Its lack of a garage and basement contributes to a simple and economical structure, without compromising on functionality.


A warm and perfectly optimized interior


The main floor brings together all the essential functions in a smart and user-friendly space. The centerpiece is the open-concept kitchen, dining room, and living room, creating a pleasant and inviting living area. The L-shaped kitchen offers an optimal layout with a practical countertop and dedicated space for appliances. The adjoining dining room provides a bright ambiance, ideal for meals with friends or family.


The living room, located near the fireplace, is a warm and perfectly proportioned relaxation space for a small cottage. Its generous windows open the room to the outdoors, allowing you to admire the surrounding nature and maximize the feeling of spaciousness.


Also on the main floor is a full bathroom, including a sink, toilet, and bathtub, as well as a neatly integrated washer and dryer. This level also includes the master bedroom, positioned to offer privacy and tranquility.


A versatile mezzanine for endless possibilities


The mezzanine is one of the major advantages of this small cabin plan. Accessible via a central staircase, this large open space, measuring over 15' x 18', can be configured to suit your needs: an extra bedroom, a home office, a playroom, a relaxation area, or even a small secondary living room. The layout possibilities are numerous, allowing you to adapt this cabin to your lifestyle, your guests, or your family.
Thanks to the high ceilings and well-positioned windows, the mezzanine creates a unique ambiance, offering an airy and inviting space, perfect for relaxation.


An ideal small cabin for natural settings


This small cabin plan is an exceptional choice for outdoor enthusiasts and owners of wooded lots, in the mountains, or near a lake. Its simple design, compact size, and pile-supported structure make it a versatile option that easily adapts to remote or hard-to-reach sites. Its contemporary style and spacious mezzanine add a modern and refined dimension to this accessible yet inspiring project.
