01

Our most affordable two-bedroom

At $192,553 base price, the Budget Cottage is the lowest-cost way to get two real bedrooms in a Compact Cottages home.

02

Two full bedrooms, not a loft

Both upstairs bedrooms are real rooms with closets — the same privacy and layout logic as our larger cottages, just sized down.

03

Same offsite build quality

Wall panels, floor panels, roof panels, and bath pods are built in-house offsite — the lower price comes from footprint, not from cutting build quality.

04

Right-sized for tight lots

A 16×24 footprint fits comfortably on smaller infill lots where a larger cottage wouldn't work.
