Chalet House Plans
Chalet house plans were popularized by Jackson Downing in the United States during the mid 19th century. Chalet-style house plans are popular among vacation homes in mountain regions for their European Alp storybook nature.
Chalet home plans often feature a steep gable roof with significant overhang and exposed rafters. Exterior walls are often board and batt construction with expansive windows and porches with flat balusters with decorative cutouts or stick work.
