Urban Cottage Plans & Small Cottage House Plans From

Distinctive Urban Cottage, at just 24' to 26' in total width, is perfect for narrow lots. The architect's efficient use of space resulted in a compact home with plenty of living space. The exterior has the clean lines and traditional materials of a classic cottage.

The covered entry porch has an arched opening that is supported by two pairs of square columns. You enter an intimate foyer space with a stairwell to the right, and an arched opening to the left that looks into a formal dining room. Straight ahead, a smaller arched opening leads to an open living area, with a fireplace centered on one wall that's flanked by windows on either side of it. An arched opening looks into the kitchen, which has a casual dining nook located next to it. Sliding French doors that lead to a rear patio also bring in natural light into the living room. From the casual dining nook, an arched opening leads to a mudroom, which has a closet and bench space, and accesses a powder room and a mud porch at the rear.

Upstairs there are two bedrooms that share a full bath, a closet for a washer and dryer, and the master suite. The master bedroom has plenty of windows for sunshine and views, and the ceiling has a small slope at the window walls. There is a walk–in closet, a smaller storage closet, and a full private bath.
