A Walk Through The Rosemont
There is something enduringly comforting about a true cottage home — a place where scale feels personal, spaces feel intentional, and every detail invites you to slow down and stay awhile. Rosemont Cottage embodies that spirit beautifully. Thoughtfully designed as a compact yet richly layered retreat, this two-story home blends European cottage charm, country warmth, and vacation-style livability into a design that feels both nostalgic and refreshingly livable.
From its inviting proportions to its carefully planned indoor-outdoor spaces, Rosemont Cottage is a home created for those who value atmosphere as much as function — a place where mornings feel softer, evenings feel warmer, and everyday life feels just a little more special.
A Cottage That Welcomes You In
At just under 1,400 square feet of total heated living space, Rosemont Cottage proves that great design isn’t about size — it’s about intention. The exterior presents a classic, grounded presence with stone detailing that immediately sets a sense of permanence and craftsmanship. With a steep 10:12 roof pitch and a peak height just over 25 feet, the home’s vertical lines and cozy massing evoke timeless European countryside inspiration without feeling ornate or overstated.
The footprint — approximately 35 feet wide by 33 feet deep — makes this plan ideal for a wide range of settings, from wooded lots and rural acreage to scenic vacation parcels. Covered outdoor spaces wrap the home in livability, offering shelter, shade, and year-round enjoyment.
Indoor–Outdoor Living, Cottage-Style
One of Rosemont Cottage’s defining qualities is its connection to the outdoors. A covered rear porch and covered patio extend the living space beyond the walls, creating natural gathering places for quiet mornings, open-air dinners, or evenings spent listening to the sounds of nature. The outdoor living room concept reinforces the idea that this home is meant to be lived in slowly and intentionally, with space to breathe and unwind.
Whether overlooking a garden, a wooded view, or rolling countryside, these outdoor areas are designed to feel like a natural extension of the interior — perfect for anyone dreaming of a cozy retreat lifestyle.
Warm, Functional Main-Level Living
Step inside, and the home immediately feels grounded and welcoming. With 9-foot ceilings on the main floor, the interior strikes a balance between openness and intimacy — never cavernous, never cramped. The main level is thoughtfully arranged to support everyday living while offering flexible spaces that adapt to your needs.
A den and office provide options for quiet work, creative pursuits, or reading rooms — ideal for remote professionals, writers, or anyone craving a dedicated space away from the main living area. A mud room adds a practical buffer between the outdoors and the interior, making the home as functional as it is charming.
The main living spaces flow naturally, encouraging connection without sacrificing comfort. Every room feels purposeful, with no wasted square footage — a hallmark of classic cottage design.
Private Bedroom Retreats
Rosemont Cottage features two well-appointed bedrooms, each designed as a private haven. The primary bedroom is located on the main floor, offering convenience and long-term livability. This layout makes the home especially appealing for those seeking single-level living with the added benefit of a second floor for guests or flexible use.
With two full bathrooms and one half bath, the home is comfortably equipped for both everyday routines and hosting visitors. The arrangement supports privacy and ease, whether the home is used as a primary residence, a second home, or a vacation retreat.
A Light-Filled Upper Level
The second floor adds depth and flexibility to the design, with 555 square feet of finished space beneath charming sloped ceilings. With 8-foot upper-level ceiling heights, this level feels cozy and inviting — perfectly suited for a guest bedroom, creative studio, or quiet escape from the main living areas below.
This upper floor enhances the home’s sense of storybook charm, creating that beloved feeling of tucked-away rooms and intimate spaces that define classic cottage living.
Designed for How People Actually Live
Rosemont Cottage is more than an aesthetic statement — it’s a home designed around real life. With no garage, the focus remains on living space, outdoor enjoyment, and architectural character. The absence of excess allows the home to feel personal and intentional, ideal for those who value quality over quantity.
With no basement or bonus areas, the design remains straightforward and efficient, keeping construction practical while maintaining a rich, layered experience once inside. This simplicity makes the plan approachable for a variety of build locations and budgets, while still delivering a sense of romance and retreat.
A Blend of Beloved Styles
Architecturally, Rosemont Cottage draws from a thoughtful blend of Cottage, Country, European, Farmhouse, Traditional, and Vacation influences. The result is a home that feels familiar yet distinctive — rooted in classic forms, but flexible enough to suit a range of interpretations through materials, finishes, and surroundings.
Whether styled with soft, neutral interiors and vintage accents, or paired with clean, modern furnishings for a fresh take on cottage living, Rosemont Cottage adapts beautifully to personal taste.
A Home That Feels Like a Getaway — Every Day
Rosemont Cottage is the kind of home that invites imagination. It’s easy to picture rain tapping softly on the roof while a fire glows inside, or sunlight spilling across stone and wood as doors open to the covered porch. It’s a home designed for handwritten notes on the counter, long conversations at the table, and weekends that stretch just a little longer than planned.
Perfect as a full-time residence, a countryside escape, or a vacation home, this design offers something increasingly rare: a sense of calm, character, and emotional warmth built directly into the architecture.
For those seeking a cozy retreat with enduring charm — a home that feels lovingly crafted rather than mass-produced — Rosemont Cottage offers a place to settle in, slow down, and truly feel at home.

Cottage
This home is typical of the cottage style. In modern usage, a cottage is usually a modest, often cozy dwelling, typically in a rural or semi-rural location. However there are cottage-style dwellings in cities, and in places such as Canada the term exists with no connotations of size at all (cf. vicarage or hermitage). In the United Kingdom the term cottage also tends to denote rural dwellings of traditional build, although it can also be applied to dwellings of modern construction which are designed to resemble traditional ones ("mock cottages").
Country
Country house plans are similar to farmhouse style plans. They are usually two story with a covered front or wrap around porch. Quite colonial, the footprint is often boxy or rectangular shaped. Many country house designs feature a centred entryway with stacked single hung windows.
European
Some of the features of this home are 'European'. European homes come in many guises, since the term reflects homes styled after those in many countries; English Tudor, French Country, and Dutch Gable, to name a few. Beyond the country of origin, there's also the period of history from which the style emerged; Georgian, Victorian, Greek Revival; the list is almost endless. The homes shown in the collection below feature elements inspired by those found in countries across the Atlantic.
Farmhouse
This home features in our Farmhouse plans collection. Farmhouse is a general term for the main house of a farm. It is a type of building or house which serves a residential purpose in a rural or agricultural setting. Most often, the surrounding environment will be a farm. Many farm houses are shaped like a T. The perpendicular section is referred to as the ell. Architectural styles vary, but very often they are of Cape Cod design. In general styles vary from region to region, but more often the style is simplistic so to serve the needs (and the budget) of the owners.
Traditional
Traditional homes freely borrow from a number of historic styles and combine them to relay a new expression. Many historic styles are also 'traditional' in nature, and are incorporated into the Mascord Collection. Colonial, Tudor, Craftsman, Cape Cod - in this collection of home plans you'll discover floor plans that reflect modern lifestyles with spacious rooms, flexible spaces and modern conveniences, but mixed with distinct architectural flair, curb appeal and modern aesthetic. Expect elements such as free-flowing kitchens, breakfast nooks, and family room combinations.
Vacation
This plan has been chosen as part of our vacation home collection. Vacation homes generally have central, open living spaces and offer a great connection to the outdoors, perhaps including an outdoor kitchen or BBQ area. Some homes will have just a few bedrooms, creating a cozy private get-away for your family. Other homes will feature many bedrooms, designed fords family get-togethers at the coast or in the mountains - a place you can invite friends and family to join you in outdoor fun.

Will This Design Work For Your Location?
The base code requires that the design of your structure meet certain requirements. The code allows for a couple of ways to meet these requirements. The first method is known as "prescriptive" wall bracing, and is built into the code as prescribed building elements that must be included at specified positions of the building. Prescriptive methods are acceptable as long as the structure's design fits within certain limitations (wall height, window size/location, etc.). The second method is to demonstrate, by engineering analysis, the forces imposed upon the structure, and the design of structural elements to withstand those forces. Whereas the prescriptive method imposes certain limitations on the design of the structure, the engineering analysis of the building allows for greater flexibility in the design, while ensuring it can withstand the actual natural forces the structure will experience.
In almost all cases, Mascord designs will require site specific engineering analysis. This analysis is required to be conducted by a professional, such as a structural engineer, who is licensed by the state in which the structure will be built. The analysis is specific to the exact building site - for this reason, we do not have "pre-engineered" plans that can be built anywhere. An engineer will need to review the plans and provide an engineering analysis report and additional drawings and specifications to go along with your plans for permit submittal. You should allow for additional time and expense to complete this process.
Some regions have additional engineering requirements, such as earthquake-prone areas of California and the Pacific Northwest, or the Gulf, Florida, & Carolina coasts that are frequented by hurricanes. Additional Wind and Seismic engineering drawings are required to accompany your home plans to obtain a building permit in most areas. These additional drawings need to be provided and stamped by a professional licensed in your state. In most cases we have working relationships established with engineers who can help you obtain the necessary drawings cost effectively, or you are welcome to source your own local engineer.
When the design includes retaining walls, these will also require engineering. Although the code provides for some prescriptive basement and concrete/masonry wall designs, these only work in limited situations. The use of site-engineered retaining walls allows for much greater design flexibility and ensures that the walls are designed specifically for the design loads, unique soils, fluid pressures, and drainage characteristics at the building site. It makes little sense to place the most expensive investment a family typically makes onto a foundation that is not designed for the unique characteristics of the land on which it is set.
All Mascord house plans are designed and detailed to conform to The International Residential Code (for orders out of state), or Oregon and Washington local state codes (for orders in those states).
Your area may have also have specific energy codes that have to be followed. Compliance could include filling out forms providing evidence that your construction drawings meet requirements. In many cases the forms are simple and can be filled out by yourself, or with the aid of your General Contractor.
To find out exactly what drawing details you should expect with your Mascord house plans, see "What's included in a Plan Set?"
If you aren’t sure what may be required, contact your building department and ask for a list of all of the items they require to submit for and obtain a building permit.
We typically calculate and provide sizing of beams for a snowload of 25 psf. You may need beams sized to accommodate larger roof loads specific to your region. We are able to help with this; please speak with our sales staff to discuss your options.
Building jurisdictions in several states - including California, New York, New Jersey, Nevada and Illinois - require that your home design is reviewed and your entire set of construction drawings is stamped by a local professional. If you are building in such an area, it is most likely you will need to hire a state licensed structural engineer to analyze the design and provide additional drawings and calculations required by your local building department.
In addition to the construction drawings, you may also need a site plan that shows where the house is going to be located on your chosen property, along with any grading and water management / septic system requirements.
Although we make every effort to ensure the accuracy of our design information, we reserve the right to make corrections on our floor plans or elevations as needed.
