It\u2019s President\u2019s Week and we are thinking about historical house plans here at The House Designers.\u00a0 The term colonial house plans refers to house plans that are either authentic or derived from the Colonial period in America. Colonial architecture<\/a> in America was influenced by England and Europe and these house plans vary widely in terms of influence but have a few united characteristics. Colonial house plans tend to have more formal, balanced exteriors and are usually two-stories but aside from that there are plenty of options to pick from. Here are three of our favorite colonial house plans.<\/p>\n

Off of the foyer is a formal dining room and living room.\u00a0 The kitchen is situated towards the back of the home with an angled island dividing the open floor plan from the grand room and bayed morning room. The grand room offers direct access to a terrace<\/a> through a pair of French doors. The master suite is located on the ground floor with private access to the deck.
