Northwest Style House Plans

If the serene, natural loveliness of the Pacific Northwest has always appealed to you, get ready. This unique place-inspired architectural style will bring the NW feel to your property when you choose one of our Northwest house plans.Created by local architects, the Northwest home style reflects the simple but elegant, and somewhat rugged, home designs of America’s northwest. Although inspired by the Pacific NW, the Northwest house plan is versatile and handsome enough to suit your property in any part of the country. Our Northwest house plans typically feature large windows, allowing an appreciation of outdoor views while letting in maximum natural light. These homes commonly feature wood and/or stone exteriors, true to the pristinely beautiful coastline and forested areas of the NW. These home designs are suggestive of sustainable, eco-friendly building techniques often found in the region. The uncomplicated, clean lines of our Northwest house plans also have modern aspects, such as the sophisticated, well-appointed kitchen, complete with attractive prep island/bartop eating area. A relatively low-pitched roof often overhangs the Northwest house’s footprint, for added shade and distinctive style. Northwest house plans are laid out so you can easily enjoy the cozy ambiance of roomy indoor spaces, (you can expect at least one fireplace in a Northwest house plan), or venture to the breezy outdoor areas. These can include large decks and/or wraparound porches, perfect for entertaining or contemplating nature. Choose a 2-story Northwest house plan for even more living space, although impressively tall, vaulted ceilings also feature in single-story plans. The home’s streamlined design and layout serves equally well as getaway vacation home, or primary residence for your family. If you prefer a similar home style, consider our Craftsman, Bungalow, and Mountain house plans. Start searching for your ideal house plan by browsing through our Northwest section.
