After removing an old back yard garage, Jarvis Architects designed this custom cottage to blend in with the main home.

In the sleeping alcove, we built a custom bed headboard. A heat pump supplies heating or cooling and a simple kitchen and bathroom makes it comfortable.

It’s versatile building, a student rental, to house younger or older family members, as well as a place to live while renting the much larger house for aging in place are all great options.
