Home Plan #592-021D-0003 New England Cape Cod house designs date back to mid-17th century New England. These rugged homes withstood coastal weather, and many were expanded for growing families. With the rise of wealth in America, grander homes took the place of the simple Cape Cod style house plans. During the Depression, when cost was of utmost importance, New England style houses regained popularity and graced the American landscape. The floor plans are symmetrical and have 1-1 ½ stories. They have shutters that block wind and rain, but now are decorative items to maintain the original look. Borrowing from Greek style, columns adorn the wide front porch. The timeless design of New England home plans adds a touch of charm to any neighborhood.
