Builder's Insight · Max Fulbright Sr.

How I designed this plan.

The Mountain Moss Cabin is a 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath cabin that squeezes 1,254 square feet of living into three stories on a footprint built for small, sloping, and narrow lots. I designed this plan for the buyer who wants a real cabin on a challenging site without giving up bedrooms or outdoor living space.

The main floor gives you 927 square feet centered on an open living area with a vaulted great room and stone fireplace that make this compact cabin feel twice its size. The first-floor master bedroom keeps your primary suite where it is most convenient, and nine-foot ceilings throughout maintain a sense of openness. Upstairs, a bunk room and 327 square feet of additional living give kids or guests their own floor.

The unfinished lower level is ready for a recreation room whenever you need it. Outside is where this cabin truly comes alive. A covered porch, vaulted screened porch, screened dining area, grill deck, and covered patio give you more outdoor living options than most homes twice this size.

At 50 feet 8 inches wide by 41 feet 4 inches deep with no garage, the Mountain Moss Cabin tucks onto small and narrow lots that bigger plans cannot touch. This is lake and mountain living distilled to its essentials. The Mountain Moss Cabin plan is available for $1,495. For similar small cabin designs, see Waterview Cabin, Coosa River Cottage, The Runaway, and Acadia Mountain Cottage.

Common Questions

Before you buy.

What is included in the Mountain Moss Cabin 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, a foundation plan for the version supplied, and roof plan. Additional foundation options are available separately and are not included in the plan price. Please inquire before ordering to confirm whether we have the version you need. 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 Mountain Moss Cabin 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 Mountain Moss Cabin 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 Mountain Moss Cabin plan?+

The Mountain Moss Cabin 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 Mountain Moss Cabin 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 Mountain Moss Cabin 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.
