New England Colonial

The New England Colonial house plan is inspired by architectural styles prevalent in America's original East Coast settlements, especially in New England. This style -- also known as the Colonial Revival -- appeared after the more ornate Queen Anne style fell out of fashion and simplified many of its details. In general, New England Colonial house plans feature symmetry, with centered doorways and a balanced array of windows. All New England Colonial style houses feature gable roofs, symmetrical placement of windows and doors, classical details such as columns, cornices, shuttered windows and a simple, rectangular shape in 2 to 2 1/2 stories. The second story takes up the same amount of floor space as the first, and the exterior is usually brick or clapboard siding. Another name for the New England Colonial design is four-over-four because of its basic rectangular floor plan of four rooms on the lower and upper levels.
