The purest version of a backyard cottage: one level, no stairs, no garage — just a complete, light-filled one-bedroom home that’s the easiest to live in and the most accessible of the five plans.
Who it’s for
- Aging parents or anyone who needs step-free, single-level living
- Homeowners who don’t need a garage and want the most home for the budget
- A simple, private long-term rental or in-law suite
The layout
Everything on one floor: an open living and kitchen area, a comfortable bedroom, and a full bath, with no stairs anywhere. Skipping the garage keeps the footprint compact and the price among the lowest of the five — ideal when accessibility and simplicity matter more than covered parking.
