DESIGNER NOTES

Welcoming Guest Cottage This charming cottage is a perfect addition to your existing home for guest or live-in parents. It is also ideally suited for commercial use as rental accommodations. The wrap-a-round porch creates a warm and inviting entry and it is a great place for spending a relaxing evening. The open living and dining room provides a functional and spacious interior. Louver bi-folding doors open to the bedroom to further expand the openness of the plan. There is abundant storage space supplied by two king size walk-in closets. Typical ceilings are 10? high. The master bedroom has a tray ceiling for added interest. Operable wood shutters, columns, window and door transoms and arched door trim provide interesting detail to the exterior.

Plan Content

All plans are drawn at ¼” scale or larger and include :


  • EXTERIOR ELEVATIONS: show the front, rear and sides of the house, including exterior materials, details and measurements.
  • FOUNDATION PLANS: include drawings for a standard, daylight or partial basement, crawlspace, pole, pier, or slab foundation. All necessary notations and dimensions are included.
  • INTERIOR ELEVATIONS: show the specific details of cabinets (kitchen, bathroom, and utility room), fireplaces, built-in units, and other special interior features, depending on the nature and complexity of the item.
  • ROOF DETAILS: show slope, pitch and location of dormers, gables and other roof elements, including clerestory windows and skylights. These details may be shown on the elevation sheet or on a separate diagram.
  • SCHEMATIC ELECTRICAL LAYOUTS: show the suggested locations for switches, fixtures and outlets. These details may be shown on the floor plan or on a separate diagram.
  • DETAILED FLOOR PLANS: show the placement of interior walls and the dimensions for rooms, doors, windows, stairways, etc., of each level of the house.
  • CROSS SECTIONS: show details of the house as though it were cut in slices from the roof to the foundation. The cross sections specify the home's construction, insulation, flooring and roofing details.
  • GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS: provide general instructions and information regarding structure, excavating and grading, masonry and concrete work, carpentry and wood, thermal and moisture protection, and specifications about drywall, tile, flooring, glazing, caulking and sealants.

Note: Due to regional variations, local availability of materials, local codes, methods of installation, and individual preferences, it is impossible to include much detail on heating, plumbing, and electrical work on these plans. The duct work, venting, and other details will vary depending on the type of heating and cooling system (forced air, hot water, electric, solar) and the type of energy (gas, oil, electricity, solar) that you use. These details and specifications are easily obtained from your builder, contractor, and/or local suppliers.

Important Information

All sales on house plans and customization/modifications are final. No refunds or exchanges can be given once your order has started the fulfillment process.

All house plans from Houseplans.com are designed to conform to the local codes when and where the original house was constructed.

In addition to the house plans you order, you may also need a site plan that shows where the house is going to be located on the property. You might also need beams sized to accommodate roof loads specific to your region. Your home builder can usually help you with this. You may also need a septic design unless your lot is served by a sanitary sewer system. Many areas now have area-specific energy codes that also have to be followed. This normally involves filling out a simple form providing documentation that your house plans are in compliance.

To find out what documents you should expect with your house plans, see What's Included?

In some regions, there is a second step you will need to take to insure your house plans are in compliance with local codes. Some areas of North America have very strict engineering requirements. Examples of this would be, but not limited to, earthquake-prone areas of California and the Pacific Coast, hurricane risk areas of the Florida, Gulf & Carolina Coasts. New York, New Jersey, Nevada, and parts of Illinois require review by a local professional as well. If you are building in these areas, it is most likely you will need to hire a state licensed structural engineer to analyze the design and provide additional drawings and calculations required by your building department. If you aren’t sure, building departments typically have a handout they will give you listing all of the items they require to submit for and obtain a building permit.

Additionally, stock plans do not have a professional stamp attached. If your building department requires one, they will only accept a stamp from a professional licensed in the state where you plan to build. In this case, you will need to take your house plans to a local engineer or architect for review and stamping. In addition, plans which are used to construct homes in Nevada are required to be drawn by a licensed Nevada architect.
