French Country Home Designs |
|||||||||
The French influence in the residential architecture of the United States began in the late 19th Century. Home designs with Mansard roofs were popular early, later came the French Eclectic style with very steep hip roofs. This is the main consistent feature of the now popular French 'Country' style as usually interpreted in the United States. In France there are also regions where the roof slopes are quite low, as with much of what we call the Mediterranean style. The first design shown below with the low slope and the round towers, is inspired by an old country chateau near Toulouse in southwestern France.

Pictured here is a scale model of an original new home design offered here for sale; perhaps this house architecture would be right for you. It is most specifically designed for a couple whose children are grown and who love to entertain. This home design style is influenced by Mediterranean architecture, with up to date American flair. The exterior of this beautiful home may also be partially finished in a stone facing of your choice. |
