i want to get house plans for this house but I don't know the style to look for

11 years ago

I love this house we rented last summer, we want to get the plans for it but I don't even know the style, I think the family room is designed as an attached garage, it only has one bedroom at the top of the stairs with a 3 piece bath. there is a main floor master with en suite and large walk in closet and a third bedroom with large walk in closet as well as laundry and 3rd bath on main floor, large vaulted ceiling in the living room, open concept living/dining room and kitchen.

Good grief, that's high! We didn't pay but a couple of thousand for our plans. I guess it is all about where you live.

If you know the layout, you can take these exterior photos and describe the layout to an architect and they can draw it up for you. There really isn't much of a price difference between having one draw it up for you and ordering prints online.

You must have cheap architects where you live. Mine would charhge me about 20k for a full set of drawing for that type of build. I have since seen the plans in one of the Not So Big House books. They copied a design from a house in vermont, to the T with the exception of turning the garage into a spare family room. Funnily enough, that's the one thing about the cottage that didn't feel right.

It has mixed elements of shingle, neo-classical, and modern - I would look at shingle style first - Long Island or Cape May homes are similar to this - modern elements and others more traditional in form.

I did a quick search on one of the house plans sites and saw similar under contemporary and traditional. Find a site that lets you narrow your search to 2 stories and master br on main floor. That may help get you closer to your design.

Take a look at this. Exterior is similar and they have on the site that they can modify the plans.

The house is a contemporary interpretation of Nantucket Cottage or Nantucket Shingle style.
