"My husband was pretty skeptical when I told him I found a plan for our new house online. But then we showed it to our builder, who seemed relieved to have something in his hands that we both liked and he could start the building process. Thank you!"

Cape Cod Plans
Designed for practical efficiency, Cape Cod plans offer a comfortable and cozy living area on the inside and a symmetrical look on the exterior.
Cape Cod plans have roots dating back to medieval New England, as early settlers built homes that would withstand the harsh winters of the East coast. Cape Cod plans have recently made a comeback and are especially appealing to those who prefer clean lines, efficient layouts and simple construction methods.
On the outside, Cape Cod plans feature wood shingling, siding or clapboard and double-hung multi-paned windows with shutters, but little or no ornamentation. Often dormers accent the steeply pitched roofs and bring light and flow of air to the upper story. With |
a central door and center-hall floor plan, the interior matches the symmetry of the outside and often includes hardwood floors on the first level with bedrooms on the second floor. Rectangular and square shapes are dominant in both the overall footprint of the home as well as the individual rooms.
Classic American charm makes Cape Cod plans feasible for traditional, as well as a modern families. With a cozy feeling that is welcoming to family and friends, Cape Cod plans aren't just for New Englanders anymore. In fact, many variations and updates have been made to this style to accommodate different tastes and preferences. Today, these house plans work well for vacation homes, starter homes or country cottages.
