Designed by Eric Moser of Moser Design Group in Beaufort, South Carolina, the cottage features 2,612 square feet, 4 bedrooms and 3 ½ baths. The first floor of the main cottage encompasses three distinct living spaces: dining, sitting and cooking areas. Inside the front door, a dining area replaces a traditional foyer. There s plenty of space for a long rectangular table to be extended during the holidays. After breaking bread, guests can chat next to the large hearth in the adjacent family room. The hardworking kitchen is equipped for a large family or lots of guests, and the home s open floor plan allows the hosts to participate in the party. Just off the kitchen, a screened porch with a fireplace links the main house to the guest cottage, complete with porch and a loft. The house brims with built-in character, like shelves that flank the stair landing. Upstairs, two bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath. For privacy, a vestibule separates the master quarters from the main house. Exposed beams add architectural interest to the master bedroom, which has its own sitting porch.

ABOUT FLOOR S OUR PLANS PLANS MAIN WHAT S FRONT FLOOR INCLUDED UPPER REAR FLOOR Southern Living working drawings offer a complete conceptual design of our homes. However, our working drawings do not include fully engineered construction documents. What s Included v Foundation and floor-framing plans. This shows the foundation layout, including drawings for a basement, slab, or crawlspace. Only one type is included with each plan. Support walls and all necessary dimensions are part of this sheet. Please note that there is no beam layout included with foundation plans. Foundation plans must be engineered locally. v Dimensioned floor plans. Each floor of the house is shown in detail. The position and dimensions of floors, windows, staircases, and columns are clearly indicated. v Suggested Electrical plans. Included are suggestions for the placement of switches, outlets, and fixtures. Local code will dictate exact placement. This will be determined by your builder. Select plans may not include electrical plans. v Typical wall section. This cross section shows a typical wall from footings to roofline. v Exterior elevations. These pages provide drawings of the front, rear, left, and right sides of the house. They also suggest the appropriate materials for the structure and detail work. v Interior elevations. These include detailed drawings of cabinets, fireplaces, columns, other built-in units, or suggested trim profiles. Each architect or designer offers various degrees of detail per plan. v Suggested exterior and interior finish schedules. v Door and window sizes. What s Not Included v Heating and plumbing plans. Due to regional variations in climate and building codes, heating and plumbing plans should be supplied by local contractors. v Material quantity lists. Once your personal selections are made (types of windows, doors, etc.), this list should be obtained from the contractor you choose or from a local building materials supplier. v Architectural and engineering seals. Some cities and states require a licensed architect or engineer to review and seal a blueprint, or officially approve it, prior to construction due to concerns over energy costs, safety, and other factors. Due to varying local requirements, Southern Living House Plans is unable to offer these seals. Contact a local building official to find out if such a review is required.
ABOUT FLOOR S OUR PLANS PLANS MAIN FRONT FLOOR UPPER REAR FLOOR Square Footage Estimates The heated square footage estimate provided on the smallscale plan does not include garage, porches, decks, bonus spaces, storage areas, or the basement level. We recommend that your builder verify all of the plan s dimensions and square footage calculations, taking into consideration any modifications or additions. Also keep in mind that there are several different formulas for calculating square footage, and your builder s estimate may vary slightly from ours. Estimating Construction Costs Accurate construction-cost estimates should be made from the working drawings. We suggest consulting with a local builder to provide an estimate of those specific costs. Sometimes your builder can give you a ballpark estimate based on information provided in the descriptions in this magazine. However, you will need full construction drawings for more accuracy. After you order the plans, you may want to get at least two separate estimates from contractors for comparison because many variables can affect cost. The contractor should provide the material quantity lists; costs may vary depending on choice of materials, availability of materials within an area, labor costs, choice of finishes, and degree of detail. Reverse Plans Sometimes, to better site a house, it is necessary for builders to use a reverse set of plans (often called a mirror image or flopped set). The lettering and dimensions will appear backward on the reverse set. If your builder needs a reverse set, order one reverse and the rest standard set plans. How Many? One planning set is all you need to study the plan in greater detail. However, if you want to get cost estimates, you will need at least eight construction sets. If you decide to build, you will definitely need multiple sets. As the owner, you will want at least one set; the builder needs a minimum of three sets; and various authorities and lenders will also need separate sets. You may wish to consult with a local builder before placing your final order. If you plan on making any changes, you must order a reproducible or CADD file. The additional copies can be made once changes have been made to the original plan. Building Codes Our plans are designed to meet the national building standards, but because of varying interpretations and the fact that codes are subject to change, we cannot warrant compliance with any of the specific building codes and ordinances. Your local builder or engineer can review the plan you choose and ensure that it complies with all applicable building codes. He/she should also verify that it is suitable for your particular site, including any subdivision restrictions. Some changes and material substitutions may be necessary if your plans are to meet the local requirements. However, we cannot be responsible for the assistance you receive from the individuals you select to build your home. Material Lists Material lists can be created and purchased for any plans. Please call 1-800-755-1122 for more information.
