"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!"

Ranch House Plans
Once the dominant American home style, ranch house plans offer a less-is-more mentality where decoration is scarce and building materials are natural.
Ranch house plans were originally developed in the late 20s and 30s and draw inspiration from dwellings such as Californian ranchos. Typically one story spread in a rectangle, L or U shape with an attached garage, ranch house plans offer few adornments, save decorative shutters, simple porch columns and occasionally, exposed rafters. The exterior is usually constructed with brick or siding for a natural-looking facade. With a low pitched gable or hipped roof, often with eaves and a sizable overhang, plus oversize picture windows, ranch house plans can |
be quite captivating.
In traditional rambling ranch house plans, dining and living spaces are combined, while a hallway can lead to the bedrooms and other family living areas. Many of the key rooms in the home open to the outdoor living space, such as courtyards and patios. These areas can be accessed through sliding glass doors, to create a feeling of open country -- even in a big city. It's this no-nonsense way of living that makes ranch house plans appealing to those who enjoy efficiency, practicality and single-level living.
