In this country cottage for the newlywed or retired couple, sunlight bathes the window tower at the staircase.
The efficient configuration includes no wasted hall space on the main floor and minimal hall space upstairs. Angled transition areas join large spaces to create an open look.
Windows in the master suite can easily be replaced with French doors to the front porch.
Built with economical trusses, the upper floor allows for two bedrooms and a bath for minimal cost.
The detached garage can be built to accommodate either one or two vehicles; the two-car version with bonus space above.
