{"product_id":"modern-cottage-house-plan-2-bedroom-1040sqft","title":"Plan C-26107","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis 32-foot by 32-foot 6-inch modern cottage floor plan delivers 1,040 square feet of vaulted living space anchored by an open living and dining room with a cathedral ceiling. The layout keeps the kitchen, living, and dining areas connected while tucking both bedrooms down a quiet hallway for privacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe vaulted living and dining room measures 12'0\" x 22'0\" and sets the tone for the whole home, with a cathedral ceiling that makes the compact footprint feel much larger than its square footage suggests. The kitchen runs 12'0\" x 9'2\" and opens directly into that living space. Bedroom 1 is 11'4\" x 11'6\" and Bedroom 2 is 11'4\" x 9'11\", both with their own closets, sharing a 4'11\" x 8'0\" full bathroom. A dedicated laundry nook and walk-in pantry round out the interior. Outside, a 19'7\" x 7'5\" covered front porch and a 15'10\" x 9'8\" covered back porch give you shaded outdoor space on both ends of the home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eConstruction is straightforward: wood stud framing with 2x6 exterior walls sits on a pier and beam foundation with drilled concrete piers and footings, a strong choice for sloped, raised, or crawl-space sites where a slab isn't practical. Roof framing details show multiple rafter options so your builder can match local insulation and code requirements, and the wall assembly includes a documented rain screen and air sealing detail for long-term durability. Ceiling height at the vaulted peak and standard 8' walls throughout keep the interior feeling open without adding unnecessary framing cost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis plan works well for owner-builders and first-time builders looking for a manageable footprint, for anyone building a rental or guest cottage on an existing property, and for downsizers who want real square footage without a large maintenance burden. The open living space and covered porches also make it a strong fit for accessory dwelling unit projects where outdoor living matters as much as interior space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003eAs with all Home Plan DIY plans, this design is provided for planning purposes and is not sealed or engineered by a licensed architect. Many jurisdictions require professional review before permitting, so confirm requirements with your local building department and a licensed engineer before construction begins.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Home Plan DIY","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52417567424693,"sku":"26107","price":449.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0688\/9694\/8405\/files\/32x33_modern_cottage_house.webp?v=1784084353","url":"https:\/\/homeplandiy.com\/products\/modern-cottage-house-plan-2-bedroom-1040sqft","provider":"Home Plan DIY","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
