The term colonial house plans refers to home plans that are authentic to, or derive from, the Colonial period in America. Although there are a handful of authentic colonial house plans in the group, public demand for more updated interiors has spurred the development of new floor plans with the trappings of colonial style.
Colonial style homes usually have 2 or 3 stories, fireplaces, and brick or wood facades. The classic Colonial-style house floor plan has the kitchen and family room on the first floor and the bedrooms on the second floor.
