Many cottage plans built in the North and West are of the general dimensions given in this cottage house plan design. Namely, the main part of the Victorian cottage is 16 by 24 feet, with 16-foot posts, and a wing 16 by 20 feet, with 12-foot posts. It is best to note that this Victorian cottage is a very unsatisfactory building to divide into convenient apartments. |

| Offered in this cottage house plan design is an original and entirely different interior arrangement from that usually adopted, as well as presenting a more attractive external appearance than the usual plain Victorian cottage with one-third pitch gabled roofs. If finished in the usual plain way, the wing might be two stories also, and contain an extra bed chamber and a bathroom, and still come within $1500. If the Victorian cottage is finished in the old fashioned plain way on the exterior, the interior of the Victorian cottage can be carried out for $1000. In the estimate given, it is intended that the building be finished in detail, according to the cottage house plan, in a first class and thorough workmanlike manner. |

The china closet is convenient to both kitchen and dining room. |
