Alva In-Law Cottage

One of the many benefits to living on a large tract of land, is the ability to add accessory structures as you need them. These homeowners needed a solution for their parents moving down from the Northeast US and this little cottage was the perfect fit.

At just over 1000 SQFT, it is the perfect size for folks looking to downsize. This cottage features a bedroom and bathroom, a bonus room, a living room, a full kitchen and front and back porches. It also has a metal roof to match the existing house.

Just because something is small doesn’t mean it can’t also be nice. The kitchen and bathroom both have Starmark Cabinets and granite countertops. Luxury vinyl flooring was installed throughout the interior for easy cleaning and care and long wear durability.
