Colonial Revival Plans House Plan Features
Hipped Roof
Most colonial house plans offer ease of construction, with square or rectangular footprints, symmetrical massing, and side-gabled or hipped roofs.
Symmetrically Aligned Windows
Stately and symmetrical with an orderly arrangement of windows around a central front door, colonial house plans are typically two stories high and are warmed by a central chimney. The windows are aligned both vertically and horizontally and are never paired, although a three-part Palladian window may be featured in the later variations of Colonial architecture.
Elegant Finishes
Well-proportioned bedrooms provide plenty of space for a growing family, guest rooms or a luxurious owners' suite defined as lovely, gracious, and deservedly popular. Colonial house plans are accented by decorative details throughout the home, more specifically door and window surrounds.
