Description

To be honest, this is the most underrated design. Nobody likes mosquitos and being bitten while enjoying an outside supper with the family is a thing of the past. Whether you use this little retreat for a hot tub enclosure, a child’s playhouse, an artist’s studio, road-side farm stand or just a quiet retreat away from the main house, this design stands out above the rest. The Florida Room is our version of a screen house, but one that can withstand those large backyard gusts and loads of snow. Sip from a nice hot cup of your favorite tea while watching the kids sled through the massive windows that take up majority of the wall space in this design. The foam board insulation, shiplap pine sheathing and exposed post and beam framing preserve the raw artistry of the cottage, while affording you a four-season oasis. Consider the addition of a heat source to create a haven of warmth in the dead of winter, allowing you to enjoy your outdoor landscape without suffering the elements.

When dreaming about the small cottage lifestyle, you may imagine tranquil surroundings that bring back memories of a simpler way of life. Cottages are adorable structures that simply emanate warmth and comfort. They make charming guesthouses or backyard retreats. When the primary purpose of your small cottage is a vacation home, the intimate space is ideal for couples looking for peaceful weekend getaways or families seeking quality time and bonding. At Jamaica Cottage Shop, we think that a having a cabin in the backyard can be just as rewarding as having one in the backcountry.

Offered as frame only kits, complete pre-cut kits, 3- and 4-Season kits, or step-by-step plans nationwide, our outdoor post and beam cottage and tiny house solutions give you the extra room you need for visiting guests, a corner garden office or a country retreat. If you live within our Northeast delivery area, consider purchasing a fully assembled turn-key design delivered to your prepared site.
