Cottage Creek B is a compact, loft-style cottage spanning 817 square feet of heated living area, engineered specifically for narrow lots with its 18-foot width and 40-foot depth. This one-story footprint, supplemented by a 277-square-foot loft, provides a total area of 977 square feet, making it an efficient choice for accessory dwelling units or smaller residential sites.

The main level occupies 540 square feet, characterized by a direct transition from the 160-square-foot covered front porch into a keeping room. This primary living area maintains an open-concept connection with the kitchen, which is anchored by a center island. The 8-foot ceiling height on the first floor ensures a consistent vertical scale across the social core, while the single full bathroom is situated to serve the living and sleeping areas effectively.

The upper-level loft provides 277 square feet of additional, flexible floor space with 7-foot ceiling heights. This area is suitable for a private sleeping quarter, home office, or studio, separated from the main floor by the staircase. The structural design utilizes 2x6 exterior wall framing to support the building envelope, achieving a maximum building height of 18 feet 9 inches.

Construction details for this design include a combination of 8:12 and 3:12 roof pitches, which define the exterior profile and provide the necessary slope for the loft volume. The 40-foot depth allows for a linear, efficient layout that minimizes circulation space while maximizing the utility of the available square footage.

Key Features: 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom, loft space, open-concept keeping room, kitchen island, covered front porch, 2x6 wall framing, 8:12 roof pitch, narrow lot design, 817 sq ft living area.
