French Country Style 1 Story House Plan
Creating a home with a
French country style
is closer to creating a piece of art than a building project. This limited single story house plan design offers plenty of character and charm with its steep roof pitch, vertical board and batten siding, and an arched port cobblestone entrance.
Design Elements
The inside of the home isn't left behind. It has arched entries into many of the rooms, including the 4 bedrooms, living room and family room. Volume ceilings featuring handcrafted trusses further add to the drama of the home and its design. Amenities such as the dens, mud room, and side grilling porch mean you are designing a place to both live and entertain in.
Layout
The layout offers the perfect configuration for entertaining, the great room, dining and kitchen all connect in an open concept and the cook in the house will still be with everyone while providing meals or drinks. Eaters will enjoy the convenient island snack bar and the separate dining room. A private bedroom with a full bath is found in the rear of the house and is perfect for overnight guests.
Home Exterior
The main elevation of the home highlights the steep roof pitch, dormer, and Craftsman style columns on the exterior. Across the second story, a large balcony is present, for views or entertaining. The large rear grilling porch will be the centerpiece of many summer evenings for both family and friends.
This eye-catching
one story
design is a one of a kind in the French country style and will no doubt be a conversation piece for years to come.
