Carriage Cottage ADU Single Car Garage Apartment House Plan (Reversed) | Small Home | Blueprint PDF (Multi-Foundation)

This is the reversed (flipped) version of The Carriage Cottage model. This reversed layout offers the same functional design as the original but mirrored to better suit your lot orientation.

The Carriage Cottage is a one-bedroom, one-bath single-story ADU (accessory dwelling unit) home plan with an integrated single car garage, designed with versatility and simplicity in mind. Featuring 526 square feet of heated living space paired with a functional 333 sq. ft. single-car garage, this design maximizes its compact footprint. It is ideal for use as a poolside guest house, starter home, in-law suite, or rental unit on your existing property.

Inside, you’ll find a smart, space-efficient layout that includes a functional kitchenette with single sink and under-counter refrigeration, a cozy living room setup with a dedicated TV wall, and an adjacent stack laundry space. The master bedroom suite features an attached walk-in closet (W.I.C.) and direct, convenient access to the full bathroom. Designed with a multi-foundation approach—featuring detailed options for either a turn down slab (monolithic pour) or a slab-on-grade with poured stem wall foundation—and sturdy 2×6 framing, The Carriage Cottage blends style, function, and durability.

Elevate your build with a complete, ready‑to‑use architectural plan set designed to streamline every step of construction. Each package includes precision‑crafted construction drawings and a fully itemized materials list, giving you everything you need to move from concept to completion with confidence.

Architectural plans are delivered as PDFs optimized for 11×17 (tabloid) printing at true scale, ensuring crisp, professional results. Estimate lists arrive in easy‑to‑print 8.5×11 (letter) format, perfect for budgeting, planning, and contractor coordination.
