The Micro Cottage
- Plans by Sheldon Designs
Homes don’t have
to be big to be big on style. With this little cottage,
architect Andy Sheldon has captured the spirit of America’s 19th
century Shingle Style. By combining classic details with
vernacular forms and materials, he has created a little home
that that is unconventional, traditional, carefree and elegant,
all at the same time.
The tiny, 354
square foot living space is expanded by a 63 square foot entry
porch. The First Floor is a one-room living/dining and kitchen
area, focused on a big fireplace. Winding stairs lead up to a
cozy, Second Floor bedroom.
This cottage
would look great nestled into seaside sand dunes. No waterfront
property? No worry. It will also make a great getaway or weekend
home in the woods, on a country meadow, or in your backyard. You
might consider building it as a guest cottage, teenager or
in-law apartment, or as your home office or studio.
