Katrina Cottage Plans
Kudos to Lowes for selling and promoting “Katrina Cottage” house plans. Small house plans aren’t easy to find, and having a quality plan would certainly make the building process easier. Hopefully more people will build compact homes after they see these plans prominently featured in Lowes ads.
The blueprints are priced at $700, and if you buy your materials from Lowes they’ll rebate the cost of the plans. 3 small 2-bedroom plans are available that are 544, 612, and 697 square feet. Other plans range in sizes up to more than 1,800 square feet for a 5-bedroom model.
I like the attractive traditional style of all the plans, and the 544 square foot one looks particularly easy to build. If that plan was available when I built my house, I probably would’ve used it. The 697 square foot plan is a real beauty.
