HISTORY:This exquisite home exemplifies all the elegance and expansiveness of a traditional Antebellum mansion but in the scale of a modest sized home. As a single story home on a well raised basement it encourages easy living. Wide porches off every room provide transitions from the grand interior spaces to the outdoors. The traditional floor plan divides symmetrically on either side of a central corridor, which provides cross ventilation, an excellent cooling strategy for hot humid climates.

As a work of art these prints are worth purchasing in their own right. For those of you interested in building a historically inspired house, these plans offer an excellent starting point. In addition to beautifully drawn plans and elevations, they contain a wealth of details, showing the columns, door and window trim, moldings, etc. This house would be most suited for a flat lot. It would be comfortable in a suburban or country setting. The house has outside dimensions of approximately 67' x 94', including porches.

SHIPPING: Your drawings are shipped to you, rolled, not folded, in a Priority Mail tube. This eBay listing includes architectural prints ONLY. Any photos shown in the description are for information only and are NOT included in your purchase. For information about the photos please send me a message through eBay. Thanks.

IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO BUILD: These plans are not complete architectural drawings as might be required by your local permitting agency and do not contain all the structural, waterproofing and other details and information necessary for construction. But your local builder or architect should be able to adapt these drawings and add to them as necessary. What they do provide is accurate design information about a REAL historic house, not a pseudo-historic tract house as you will find in the house plan magazines on your supermarket shelf.
