Country House Plans

Country House Plans

Country house plans trace their origins to the picturesque cottages of the early European countryside that have been updated and adapted by Americans over the past 300 years to reflect regional sensibilities. Country houses are simple structures often with symmetrical lines, a central door, and evenly spaced windows. They can be one or two stories high. A country house invites you in with a front porch or a wrap-around veranda and is topped with a gabled roof. Although most closely associated with informal living, Country homes can also be elegant. This collection of Country house plans draws inspiration from the nostalgia of the country home style, yet with architectural floor plans appropriate for the lifestyles of today.
