Simple yet Unique Country House Plans and Farmhouse Designs - Open Floor Plans
What is a Country House Plan or a Farmhouse Design? Your first image of a Country Home might come from your childhood visits to your grandparents farm. A simple white Farmhouse with a gable roof line and shed porches. White clapboard siding with a unique red shingle roof. A white picket fence and Apple pie. On the other hand your idea of a Country House Plan as a modest cabin in the woods. Whatever your image is - our plans are sure to please with our open floor plans designed for today’s modern family.
For us at Simply Elegant Home Designs we think you could sum up the Country House Style or a Farmhouse as a home that is simple and natural. A house plan that feels comfortable in it’s surroundings. A country home design or farmhouse can be modern or traditional, but above all it must be functional. Form should follow function, and ornament should be restrained. The Country House Plan or farmhouse is about a style of life that is simpler, and so the architecture should be reflective of that.
At Simply Elegant Home Designs many of our unique designs qualify as a Country House Plan. All of our home designs have a degree of simplicity and feel comfortable in natural surroundings. And of course all of our Country Home and Farmhouse designs are outfitted with our well laid out and functional floor plans. All the benefits of today’s modern floor plans wrapped up in a Country exterior.
