About Ranch Style Homes:
Ranch house plans are traditionally single story homes with a low pitched gable roof that runs parallel to the street. These homes tend to be long and narrow, with the longest dimension facing the front. Porches may or may not be present. Designs can also be L shaped or U shaped in addition to rectangular designs
Ranch house floor plans tend to be simple in design with an emphasis on the efficient use space, and are usually very open with few interior walls.
Ranch style homes are usually built from natural materials meaning wood floors, and wood or brick exteriors. Aside from shutters and porch roof supports, Ranch homes lack much decorative detailing on the exterior. Windows are usually double hung, picture windows and often include sliding doors to a patio or deck.
