Italianate Style Custom Home Floor Plans

Italianate style homes are frequently two-story homes that start with low-pitched hip roofs, often with deep, bracketed eaves; arched 1-over-1 or 2-over-2 windows, as well as enlarged overhangs/soffits; paired-door entryway with glass in the doors. Modeled after a fashion that started in England, the Italianate style rejects the rigid rules of classical architecture and instead looks to the more informal look of Italian rural houses.
