**Grace Park Cottage SL2063 by Bridgewater Consulting for Southern Living House Plans**

Pretty eye catching, isn’t it? I love the French doors, the ceiling fans, the dog that appears to sit so regally on the front porch. This is a fabulous house plan full of wonderful spaces. I like the clean lines of it, the center hallway and the flexibility of the spaces. Not to mention the obvious… the front porch!

This is the Grace Park Cottage (SL2063) by Bridgewater Construction for Southern Living House Plans. This plan is 2,089 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. I love everything about this plan, but I also love that they thought to include storage, which is highly sought after (those of you who don’t have ample storage will know what I mean)! (Click the links below to see images of the interior and exterior!)

The main floor has a center hallway upon entering. Pretty striking! The two front rooms are a den on one side and a bedroom on the other. For Fred and I and our use of space, I would make one a den/office for me and Bed #2 I would make an office for Fred. I would use pocket doors so they could be closed during conference calls, etc. but otherwise open, airy and we could talk back and forth.

I would use the upstairs bedroom as the master, but in time would use Bed #3 – once that time came, I think I would close entry to the bathroom from Bed #2. I would also try to fit a shower in the powder room taking away some of the Utility closet space. The dining, kitchen and great room are fabulous. It’s fun how we all use our homes in different ways. What one person would love to do another would never dream of. Of course this plan is fabulous just like it is!

Upstairs is a bedroom with great closet space, a walk in closet, a nice size bathroom and a “winter closet” – which I LOVE! It’s can be a challenge where to put winter clothes but no more!
