This is a 17th Century Stable Cottage that’s been totally renovated into a lovely vacation home in Sussex, England.
I love seeing one-floor plans with a big, open main living area. I think for folks who hate stairs, this kind of floor plan is perfect! The bedroom and bathroom sit off the main room that overlooks stunning pasture dotted with sheep.

This is a Central Oregon Sunriver Vacation Cottage you can rent via Home Away.
Why show vacation properties? Sometimes these older cottages and cabins are cleverly designed! We can always glean something from examining the open layout and, of course, the beautiful exterior of this home. It doesn’t share the square-footage, but this is certainly more of a “small” home. Might give families some ideas for downsizing!

This is the “Azure” Lumbec Coach House Kit, a new 3-D design of a “small house” I’d love to live in.
The home is great for anyone who doesn’t like lofts and would like the 640 sq. ft. of living space. Because it’s a kit you get all the “pieces” and can still DIY the build, which is pretty cool! See everything it includes below.

This is a quaint coastal cottage in Maine, clocking in at 363 square feet.
Outside, you’ll notice a beautiful tiny home behind a white-picket fence tucked into New England foliage – including stunning hydrangea bushes. In true Maine style, the house is enveloped in light blue clapboard and features a navy door. A cupola rests on the gabled roof adding to the home’s charm.
When you go inside, you’ll find traditional cottage decor worthy of a storybook. The tall ceilings feature exposed beams and white-washed wide pine. The kitchen space includes a light green cupboard, open shelving for quaint dishware, and an oven and stove. Step into the main living area and there’s a tiny table with light green chairs, as well as a couch, wicker chair and mermaid rug on the pine floor. The bedroom includes a rot-iron antique twin bed, as well as a full bed.
