Low Country House Plans

Low country house plans are southern home designs for coastal areas, specifically the coasts of North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. Low country house plans are designed to be simple and understated while also appearing elegant and graceful. This predominantly southern architecture with a coastal flair brings out the best elements in design and comfort - from tall ceilings and open floor plans to large windows and covered porches. Once practical features to keep the home cool in the heat of summer, these elements are now sought for their aesthetic properties.

The Santee, for example, is a traditional low country design with four bedrooms. Columns and dormers accent a deep front porch, while gables and half-circle transoms add architectural interest. Our Hollyhock plan is a somewhat larger low country home plan. Anyone looking for sophistication and charm front to back and top to bottom should explore this plan further. A vaulted ceiling opens above multiple doors that lead to the lovely back porch. A fireplace flanked by built-in cabinetry enhances the expansive great room. Note the nearby wet bar in this home plan. For large families looking for space, amenities and luxury, the Palm Vista floor plan has it all. This Florida-inspired home plan offers numerous bedrooms and two master suites, each complete with a luxurious bathroom that include a separate shower and whirlpool tub.
