Country House Plans

Country house plans trace their origins to the picturesque cottages described by Andrew Jackson Downing in his books Cottage Residences, of 1842, and The Architecture of Country Houses, of 1850. The Country style overlaps with the Cottage style and the Farmhouse style, though Country style homes tend to be larger than cottages and most make expressive use of wood for porch posts, siding, and trim. Today's country style houses emphasize a woodsy simplicity with a central door, evenly spaced windows, and a front and/or a rear porch. They can be one or two stories high, are topped with a gable roof, and often include a wrap-around veranda. Although most closely associated with informal living, Country style homes can also be formal and elegant. Country house plans combine a romance for the past with updated floor plans appropriate for today's lifestyles.

Useful information:
An air of informality, connection to nature in materials or association, and some form of porch are common features of country house plans. Country style isn't really an architectural style term but appears most often in the worlds of stock plans and interior decor. HGTV (http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/dc_styles_country/) provides many examples of country style decorating. Many cottage designs could also be called country and there's also some overlap with Farmhouse designs.
