This review is from: Cottages: Charming Seaside and Tidewater Designs (Paperback)

For anyone who has seen the movie, "The Truman Show," and wanted to move into his town, these are the houses you're looking for. The floor plans are delightful, and most are suited for the narrow lot restrictions in a waterfront community. Designed for privacy, and to make the most of a view lot, I would highly reccomend these plans for anyone building a dream vacation home.

3.0 out of 5 stars Many of the "cottages" featured are over 2000 sq. ft., May 4, 2000

This review is from: Cottages: Charming Seaside and Tidewater Designs (Paperback)

Although the designs are interesting and varied, I was disappointed to find that instead of a book of small cottages, over half the book contained houses large enough for a full family with room to spare. The term "cottages" in the title is misleading.

I owned this book for several years until Mr.Right came along.
We built a cottage from this books plans. I love it. Watch out for closet space though, there isnt any but the ceilings are high and the choice of colors, especially if you turn to the Coral Beaches of Key West for inspiration are perfect for this house. I recommend the book. The pictures are watercolors though so you'll need to use your imagination.
