French House Plans

For a list of trusted home plan firms specializing in French home designs, please visit the French Home Plans Directory.

French house design has been a popular home style since the early 1700's, and the unique style and design of a modern French home is still founded on the little characteristics that give it such class. Most French homes are two stories or more in height, and are mostly identified by their brick exterior and pointed roof pitches at various heights. Sometimes, a gallerie or verandah is included under the main roof of a French house. Early French homes had no interior hallways, and were rectangular in shape.

We are working on adding new French house plan firms to our list. If you know any good sites, please email us, and we will add them to this page.
