American Country House Plan | Americana Decor from Wall to Wall
Submitted by bec1967
The American country house plan is a fairly modern term used to express a variety of different elemental structural or design themes which give rise to the feel of years gone by. The charm of a country home can be as simple as a summer cottage or as formal and elegant as a multi-story, columned estate.
A smaller American country house plan can feature a stucco exterior with stone and shingles to create the cozy warmth of a cottage. Add a series of hip roofs, a central fireplace and brick facade to lend an English elegance to the home. A glass or screened in sun room would be an impressive addition.
For the larger American country house plan, some inclusions to be considered are a walkout basement foundation, open living spaces with the main entry giving way directly into the great room, or a secluded master suite with a terrace and a spa. Matchstick details and horizontal siding give a more sophisticated country flavor and don't forget to add a fireplace to the great room.
You can also add a country flavor to a ranch house with just a few well placed details such as dormer windows, a tray ceiling, central fireplace and enclosed sun room. The feel of a country manor estate can be captured with a drive court leading to private parking in a multi-car garage and separate guest house. Internal elements such as angled walls and sculptured ceilings can also add to the impression of an affluent country barron's home.
Many home styles can be turned into a country house floor plan as long as you pay attention to the architectural design. From shutters and planter boxes, to ornate woodworking and sweeping verandas, deciding what architectural and design elements give your family the country feeling is the most important factor in planning your American country house plan.
