French Country style conjures up images of tranquil, pastel colored hillsides surrounding small villages firmly rooted to the land and its culture. Our French country house plans attempt to capture the essence of this charming country.  The quaint architecture of the rural houses nestled among the varied landscapes reflects a style of living that is uniquely French. Tucked away in ancient villages, charming houses offer a glimpse of a tranquility that is hard to imagine, but for these "secret" places. No wonder that people everywhere are attracted to the allure of French Country house plans.

 

The appeal of the French Country home is timeless.   The look is noted for its characteristic steeply pitched roofs, tall, arched windows windows framed by French blue shutters, buttery-tan stone or stucco walls, and tall chimneys capped with terracotta chimney pots.  Whether it's "French Country" or "Country French", the ancient charm of this style has remained the same for centuries.  The variety of residential architectural styles found throughout France reflects the various regions and cultures particular to each area of the country.  Our French Country house plans make it possible foryou to enjoy this enduring style.

 

French Country Field

Each region of France is recognized for its own distinctive home style. From small houses of grey fieldstone clustered around a village church in Brittany to the red tiled houses perched against the blue sky on the Cote D’Azur, Country French home style offers a varied palette of colors, textures and architectural details from which to choose.

 

With houses that can date back to the Middle Ages one senses a timeless romance with life itself in the same way that the French savor their food and wine. The country architecture preserves the atmosphere of France’s rural past and some of the most enduring design elements in residential design.
