English Cottage House Plans...
Storybook Style!
The English cottage house plans featured here appear to have come right out of a fairytale. Oozing with nostalgic charm, these little architectural treasures may very well hold the key to living happily ever after!
Few things evoke pleasant childhood memories like a good storybook with a happy ending . . . . .
The storybook style of the cottages that follow gives us an opportunity to not only recapture those childhood memories, but to turn them into tangible form -- or reality.
To let our imaginations soar . . . . . and to create our own happy endings!
Whether you use it as a weekend retreat, a vacation getaway, a retirement cottage or a year round home, you will find a size and floor plan to accommodate virtually any lifestyle. More importantly, for many of us who never really wanted to grow up (myself included), we can indulge our childhood fantasies on a daily basis -- no matter how young or old, chronologically speaking, we may be!
A wonderful aspect of English cottage house plans is that they're not necessarily relegated to any one particular style, but rather a combination of styles spanning several centuries. By carefully blending a variety of authentic materials with a creative, but strategic -- and sometimes playful -- arrangement of traditional architectural elements, there is no limit to the number and variety of picturesque cottage designs that can be created!
Note the vast array of architectural elements used in the designs that follow, including towers, gables, dormers, bargeboards, chimneys and chimney pots, mouldings, and multi-pane windows. Similarly, a variety of natural building materials including stone, brick, stucco and wood are strategically placed to maximize the picturesque look and feel of the overall design.
