Home > Transitional House Plans

Transitional house plans are traditional floor plans and designs that have been updated with modern styles and amenities while keeping their classic elements intact.

Often referred to as modern traditional or modern classic style homes, transitional home plans usually feature an open-concept design connecting the kitchen to the great room and dining area creating one spacious room. Transitional home plans also update traditional elements with contemporary materials and finishes like adding large spans of glass, stainless steel, stacked stone and eco-friendly building materials creating clean lines and more of a minimalistic style. Think Old World style meets 2022's homeowner's needs and lifestyle. From transitional farmhouses to affordable, updated cottages, these homes offer plenty of large windows and lots of natural light. Transitional plans are particularly popular around lakes and other natural areas with great views to behold, but they're also seeing a rise in neighborhoods as well. Wherever you intend to build, rest assured you can find a transitional house plan to suit your location.

Frequently asked questions

What is a transitional house plan?

Transitional design takes traditional home styles of the past and updates them with contemporary tastes in mind. These new plans are based on familiar favorite types of architecture, but they're simplified to have clean lines, larger windows, and open floor plans. The final picture is balanced, visually appealing, and also conducive to today's lifestyles.

How do transitional house plans differ from other plans?

Transitional homes are unique in that there are all kinds—a transitional farmhouse will look different than a transitional European home or a transitional Craftsman. Even if they're streamlined to appeal to today's market, you can still see the traditional inspiration at the core of these homes.

What are some common features of transitional homes?

Transitional homes have streamlined exteriors, large windows, and open-concept interiors. They include traditional finishes like wood siding, stucco, brick, and stone, but they use brighter, more contemporary colors than in the past. You can tailor the look and feel of your space with traditional, transitional, or modern fixtures to create the perfect atmosphere for your design goals!
