Tudor House Plans

Influenced by 15th-17th century English traditions, American homebuilders recreated the Tudor style toward the end of the 19th century. Overlapping gables, patterned brick or stonework, and incorporating timbers in the façade evoke Medieval times. Large, leaded windows bring in an abundance of light to these homes. Typically one and a half to two stories, Tudor homes are designed for comfortable family living. And, expansive living areas with high, often beamed, ceilings add elegance and grandeur.
