Colonial style house plans and tradition house plans

Our colonial house plans and tradition house plans feature, in most cases, a center stair hall and a large central fireplace which is as pleasing in form as function, providing a central heat source for the house. Colonial architecture was brought to the Americas by early settlers and reflects the style with which they were familiar but adapted to the North American climate and available building materials. A simple gabled roof and typical white cladding (sometimes another color), common use of shutters as well as colums are typical external features. The typical two-floor layout speaks to efficiency of flow and the family-friendly plans and models make entertaining a pleasure.
