This cottage plan is a single-level home with 1,300 square feet of living space, three bedrooms and two baths, on a footprint of 49'-10" × 27'-11". The front porch leads into a 6'-0" × 6'-8" foyer, which opens to the 16'-8" × 14'-7" living room. The kitchen (9'-4" × 10'-2") sits beside the 8'-10" × 10'-11" dining nook, so cooking and meals share one zone. The 6'-0" × 7'-6" laundry is close by.
A 4'-10" × 11'-1" hall connects Bedroom 2 (10'-1" × 10'-11"), Bedroom 3 (12'-5" × 8'-4") and the hall bath (8'-6" × 5'-9"). The primary bedroom (13'-3" × 11'-1") has its own 9'-8" × 5'-9" bath. The plan also includes a 5'-9" × 8'-4" walk-in closet. There is no garage, and a steep gable roof gives the house its cottage profile.

Who this plan suits
This plan suits a small household, a first-time builder or a downsizer who wants three bedrooms without stairs. It needs a lot at least a little wider than the 49'-10" footprint once setbacks are added, with no garage to plan for.
How this plan was made
It was generated in AI Architectures Plan Studio from this one-line brief: “Cottage-style one-story house, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, steep gable roof, front porch, cozy living room, kitchen with dining nook, laundry, about 1,300 sq ft.” An AI architect drafted the room program, a layout solver placed every wall and door, and the plan was checked automatically for room sizes, circulation and daylight. The same project produced the PDF sheets, layered DXF, IFC model and 3D model you can download above.
Frequently asked questions
What are cottage house plans?
Cottage house plans describe compact homes with a modest footprint, a steep gable roof and a front porch. This one is a single-story, 1,300 sq ft layout with three bedrooms and two baths, and the porch opens straight into the living space.
What affects the cost and lot requirements of this plan?
The main drivers are local labor and material prices, foundation type, roof complexity and the finishes you choose. The 49'-10" × 27'-11" footprint is a single level with no garage, so the lot needs room for that width plus your local setbacks.
Can I change this plan by chat?
Yes. You can ask in chat to resize rooms, add or remove a bedroom, add a garage on either side, or fit the house to a narrower or wider lot. The layout is regenerated with the new dimensions.
How do I use the PDF, DXF and IFC files?
The PDF is for review, sharing and permit discussions. The DXF opens in CAD tools for drafting and detailing. The IFC opens in BIM software so you can check the model. Have a local architect or engineer review the files before you apply for a permit.
