CAPE COD HOUSE PLANS
FEATURED HOUSE PLAN OF THE WEEK:
4 Bedroom   3 1/2 Bath
#1-158
Cape Code Style
This beautiful three-story home exemplifies Cape Cod style house plans. With the functional yet slightly formal main living area designed for family gatherings, the upper and lower levels separate bedrooms and game spaces. Delicate interior touches like columns and a kitchen island bring colonial-era details to this modern home.
VIEW THIS PLAN



The Cape Cod house plan first emerged in New England in the late 17th century and kept its popularity until the mid 1800's.  The interior began as two rooms, one room deep, but later Cape Cod house plans often were expanded at sides and back when privacy became an issue. The Depression era saw a revival of the Cape Cod house plan when a desire for smaller, economical, yet nostalgic looking homes became popular.

The split-level home has long been a popular choice in the American landscape. Beginning in the 1950’s, with lots getting smaller as the home owning population grew, the sprawling Ranch-style home was getting more difficult to build and more expensive to maintain. The newly evolved split-level home plan offered more interior living space on a smaller lot by stacking levels and using short staircases as conduits between gathering spaces.

Traditional house plans have a way of standing out in a crowd, despite being perhaps the most frequent choice of home builders. The term “traditional” refers to an overall design statement that, although devoid of specific features, nonetheless embodies a recognizable aesthetic. These stylized homes belong to groupings of similar structures, unified by exterior elements from flashy to functional. Traditional house plans can sidle their way into these groups and yet still maintain a subtle separateness; it is a noun modifier: Colonial Traditional, for example, or Renaissance Traditional.
