What is the difference between just a cottage and a custom home? A cottage is somewhere to go to enjoy yourself during the warmer months of the year, some place to eat, drink and sleep. The focus is entirely on the outside, the lake and other summer/warm weather activities.
A custom home is a place that you can live in all year round, its a place that is more comfortable inside then whatever the weather is doing outside. It can accommodate many people and can be easily used by anybody that comes up to stay.
What you should think about when you want to build a new cottage is to have a custom home that is your cottage or a custom cottage.
A custom cottage is something that takes time and planning, but its a place that is designed for all the fun that comes with being at the cottage in the summer, all parties and the great memories. But a custom cottage is properly insulated and climate controlled so that sleeping at the cottage no matter where you are in the building is also an enjoyable experience.
A custom cottage has the modern conveniences that allow the dishes to be cleaned quicker, that a load of laundry can be done if required and that no matter if its cold or rainy out everybody can be warm and entertained inside.
A custom cottage is built in a way to help keep the energy bills down and to allow you to come up anytime of the year and enjoy the place.
One bonus for building a custom cottage that can be used all year around is that it allows you the option of renting the cottage out to people in parts of the year that you would never be using it, like in the winter to cross country skiers or snowmobilers.
Its good to think about saving money on energy and the availability to have rental income, a custom cottage will cost a little more then a regular cottage, one of the big differences between building a custom cottage and just a regular one is the real sale of a custom cottage is a lot higher.
Custom cottages retain their value and sell for a lot more then a normal run of the mill cottage, there's more and more people looking to buy already built cottages and a lot of people wan their cottage to be as much like their home in the city as possible.
