The Cape Cod style begins with the colonists who came from England to New England in the 17th century. Identifying characteristics include a symmetrical exterior with front covered entry at the center of the house, multi-paned double hung windows, and shutters. The roof is a simple gable design with a steep pitch creating enough room for second story living space under the roof line. Window or shed dormers are added to make second-floor living more comfy. The exterior of the home is wood structured with lap, shake extensive clapboard or shingle siding. Frank Betz Associates, Inc. Cape Cod way home plans are planned with the heart of the home in mind featuring a front porch, fireplace, big open floor plan, sufficient windows and the master on the most important floor.
