How I designed this plan.

I designed the Acadia Mountain Cottage as a 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath mountain cottage that stacks 1,411 square feet across three stories on narrow and sloping lots. This plan is for the buyer who wants a wraparound porch, a screened porch, and multiple levels of living in a compact footprint that fits sites where bigger plans simply cannot go.

The main floor holds 913 square feet with an open floorplan and nine-foot ceilings that keep the space feeling comfortable and connected. The flow from kitchen to dining to living is seamless. Upstairs, 498 square feet adds a bedroom and a loft for flexible space. The lower level at 902 square feet holds a bunk room, flex room, and game room with full walkout access on a sloping site.

Every floor has purpose, and the vertical layout means you get three stories of living in a footprint most plans use for one. A wraparound porch, screened porch, and patio give you covered outdoor living that wraps around and below the home. At 46 feet 8 inches wide by 42 feet deep with no garage, this cottage fits narrow and sloping lots that most plans cannot handle.

The three-story design takes full advantage of grade changes, turning a challenging site into a fully functional home on every level. It is mountain cottage living at its most efficient. The Acadia Mountain Cottage plan is available for $1,495. For similar compact mountain designs, see Foothill’s Cottage, Watersound Cottage, Mountain Moss Cabin, and Stone Ridge Cottage.

Common Questions

Before you buy.

What is included in the Acadia Mountain Cottage house plan set?+

Each plan set includes dimensioned floor plans for all levels, front, side, and rear elevations at 1/4" scale with notes and dimensions, foundation plan (basement standard; slab and crawlspace available for an additional fee), and roof plan. Available as a PDF plan set ($1,495) or editable CAD files ($1,950). Electrical plans are not included because they are customer-specific and finalized on site with your builder and electrician after framing.

Can the Acadia Mountain Cottage plan be modified?+

Yes. Modifications are one of the most common services we provide. Our in-house design team handles all modifications directly. Common changes include adjusting bedroom count, resizing rooms, changing exterior materials, or adapting for a specific lot. Typical turnaround is 2 to 4 weeks. Contact Max Fulbright Designs at (770) 301-4214 or [email protected] for a free consultation and quote.

Does the Acadia Mountain Cottage plan require a structural engineer's stamp?+

Stock plans do not include a professional engineer's stamp. Many US jurisdictions require a licensed engineer in your state to review and stamp the plans before permit submission. Check with your local building department before purchasing. This is a standard industry practice and is not unique to Max Fulbright Designs.

Who designed the Acadia Mountain Cottage house plan?+

The Acadia Mountain Cottage house plan was drawn personally by Max Fulbright Sr., the founder of Max Fulbright Designs. Max is a Georgia Institute of Technology-trained engineer who has designed and personally built more than 500 custom homes since founding the firm in 1990. Every plan in the Max Fulbright Designs catalog is drawn by Max himself.

Can I build the Acadia Mountain Cottage house plan in any US state?+

Yes. Max Fulbright Designs has delivered more than 12,000 plans to homeowners and builders in all 50 US states and Canada. The Acadia Mountain Cottage plan is drawn to general residential construction standards that work in most US jurisdictions, though local building codes vary and should be reviewed with your builder before construction.
