Florida Collection
Florida house plans blend Mediterranean and Caribbean influences with practical designs suited for warm, humid climates. These distinctive homes feature broad overhanging eaves, large covered porches (called lanais), and high ceilings that promote natural air circulation—architectural elements that have defined Florida residential architecture since the early 20th century.
The signature elements of Florida home design include stucco exteriors, barrel tile roofs, and open-concept floor plans that typically range from 1,800 to 3,500 square feet. Large impact-resistant windows and sliding glass doors create seamless transitions between indoor and outdoor living spaces, while letting in abundant natural light. Most plans incorporate split bedroom layouts, with the primary suite separated from other bedrooms for enhanced privacy.
Modern Florida house plans emphasize energy efficiency through strategic window placement, superior insulation, and integrated outdoor living areas. Contemporary designs often feature great rooms that flow into gourmet kitchens with islands, perfect for both family life and entertaining. Notable amenities include dedicated pool baths, hurricane protection features, and flexible spaces that can serve as home offices or hobby rooms.
The ground-level designs eliminate stairs while maximizing accessibility and aging-in-place potential. Spacious master suites typically include walk-in closets, dual vanities, and private access to the lanai. Generous storage solutions, including walk-in pantries and expanded garage space, accommodate the needs of both full-time residents and seasonal homeowners.
Florida house plans particularly suit homeowners who value indoor-outdoor living, energy efficiency, and architectural details that complement the subtropical environment. The combination of comfortable living spaces, weather-resistant design, and classic coastal aesthetics creates homes that are both practical and visually appealing, perfect for Florida's unique climate and lifestyle.

Exterior Wall Construction Choices
Most of our stock plans come as 2x4 exterior wall construction by default. We do provide options to change the exterior wall type. Those options include 2x6 exterior walls, Post Frame Construction, CMU Block Construction, etc.
Foundation Types
When de signing our house plans, a default foundation is set for a given plan. If possible, we include options to change the foundation type to better match your construction needs. For instance, if the default foundation is an unfinished basement, you'll have the option to change the foundation type to a walkout foundation, crawlspace, or slab foundation.
Please note: Some of our plans are designed with special foundation needs, such as post and pier for waterfront properties. These plans may not allow an option to choose another foundation type. If you find yourself in need of an alternate foundation and aren't given the choice, please fill out the alteration request on the plan page.
Right Reading Reverse
One of our more popular options is reversing the plan. Ordering the reverse option will not only flip the plan on the sets for you, it will also correct the text to make the plan read correctly while reversed.
CAD Files
All of our plans are offered as digital PDF downloads. If you want to make changes to the plan yourself, there is an add-on option that will give you the CAD files. Our CAD files are exported in AutoCAD format. You must have software capable of opening CAD files to use them. This option is great if you are in the business of home building and need to make slight changes to the plans per lot.
