Cottage Decorating & Design...
Nooks & Crannies!

The cottage decorating and design featured here showcases the interior of a charming farmhouse style cottage. Compact in size, it is loaded with built
in nooks and crannies to maximize available space and add architectural interest!

SugarBerry Cottage was designed by Moser Design Group exclusively for Southern Living House Plans. Fairly small at only 1,687 square feet, the design cleverly utilizes numerous roof and wall cavities to carve out addi-
tional storage space.

Beginning with the most spacious room in the cottage, the open and airy living and dining area features a large fireplace and the first of many built-
in "nooks and crannies" you will see upon entering the home. On the oppo-
site wall from the entrance is a set of built-in shelving used to display a collection of dinnerware, as shown in the photo below.

Upon closer inspection, the dinnerware display is appropriately centered on the wall adjacent to the dining area.

Upstairs, the bedrooms are tucked under a steeply pitched gable roof and shed roof dormers . . . . providing plenty of opportunities for built-in nooks and crannies. The bedroom that follows features built-in shelving and a cozy window seat. Country cottage furniture is used to furnish the room.

The second upper level bedroom also features country cottage decor, in-
