A cozy guesthouse and garage custom designed to emulate the historic style of the main residence. Numerous details are used to preserve the feeling of a quiet cottage nestled in the hillside. The brick walkway to the front door doubles as a front porch, allowing an indoor-outdoor space which expands from the living room, and is lit by historic lanterns.

While small in size - the guesthouse portion is less than 540 square feet - clever design allows the spaces to function efficiently. High quality windows and French doors look out onto the yard and help to visually increase the size of the efficient living spaces. And the restroom makes maximum advantage of its size with a zero-barrier entry into the shower.

Custom cabinetry holds a full kitchen and laundry appliances along one wall of the living room, perfectly sized for this cottage.
