As you look at the Cherbourg, you’ll see that it features a rich blend of architectural styles. Everything about this home speaks of European design elements, from the window arbors to the second story dormered windows. The stucco siding lends this home a strong French Country influence, while the steep, multi-gabled roof calls back to Tudor design.
One of this home’s greatest features is the three-car garage. The front of the garage is positioned to the side of the house, which keeps traffic away from the home’s front. The garage’s shape and size gives you much more than a simple place to park vehicles. At 24 feet deep, you’ll have ample room along the back of the garage for storage or a workshop.
This home’s interior is tailor-made for comfort and it provides an excellent view of the outdoors. The foyer opens into a large combined living area. The vaulted great room overlooks a spacious patio, while the kitchen and dining area transition into an outdoor living space with a barbeque and fireplace. In the kitchen, you’ll find a large wraparound island with plenty of seating for large weeknight dinners.
Bedrooms two and three are just off the kitchen, as is the stairwell to the upper story, the mud room, the pantry and a half bathroom. A full bath – complete with dual sinks and a compact shower – separates the two bedrooms. The mud room offers you several conveniences, including a closet for extra storage, a utility sink and space for your washer and dryer.
On the opposite end of the home, you’ll find the den and the master suite. With a window seat and arbor, the den is a great place to relax and escape from day to day life. This room also works well as a home office or studio.
Within the master suite, you’ll find every comfort imaginable. French doors open to the outdoors, which gives you the chance to create your own private patio off the bedroom. A corner fireplace adds warmth and romance to the room. The master bathroom includes his-and-her sinks, a large and luxurious corner tub, and a tiled walk-in shower. In the bathroom, you’ll also find an entry to a large walk-in closet complete with built-in shelving for shoes and accessories.
This home’s second story features a large bonus room and full bathroom. Use the bonus room as an additional bedroom, a guest bedroom, the home office or anything else. Wide windows overlooking the garage give this room a bright, open feeling that is well suited to a variety of purposes. To the right of the stairwell, you’ll find a doorway that opens into a large attic area – perfect for storing seasonal decorations and household goods.

European
Some of the features of this home are 'European'. European homes come in many guises, since the term reflects homes styled after those in many countries; English Tudor, French Country, and Dutch Gable, to name a few. Beyond the country of origin, there's also the period of history from which the style emerged; Georgian, Victorian, Greek Revival; the list is almost endless. The homes shown in the collection below feature elements inspired by those found in countries across the Atlantic.
French Country
French country is a style of home design inspired by the rural, rustic homes of the French countryside. It is characterized by its use of natural materials, such as stone, brick, and wood, and by its emphasis on comfort and warmth. French country homes often have a picturesque, charming appearance, with steep pitched roofs, arched windows and doors, and ornamental details such as shutters and window boxes. The exterior may be finished in a soft, muted color palette, and the interior may feature exposed wood beams, stone or brick fireplaces, and comfortable, welcoming furnishings. French country architecture often incorporates elements of traditional French design, such as formal gardens, patios, and courtyards, and may also include outdoor living spaces such as balconies, porches, and terraces.
Traditional
Traditional homes freely borrow from a number of historic styles and combine them to relay a new expression. Many historic styles are also 'traditional' in nature, and are incorporated into the Mascord Collection. Colonial, Tudor, Craftsman, Cape Cod - in this collection of home plans you'll discover floor plans that reflect modern lifestyles with spacious rooms, flexible spaces and modern conveniences, but mixed with distinct architectural flair, curb appeal and modern aesthetic. Expect elements such as free-flowing kitchens, breakfast nooks, and family room combinations.

Will This Design Work For Your Location?
The base code requires that the design of your structure meet certain requirements. The code allows for a couple of ways to meet these requirements. The first method is known as "prescriptive" wall bracing, and is built into the code as prescribed building elements that must be included at specified positions of the building. Prescriptive methods are acceptable as long as the structure's design fits within certain limitations (wall height, window size/location, etc.). The second method is to demonstrate, by engineering analysis, the forces imposed upon the structure, and the design of structural elements to withstand those forces. Whereas the prescriptive method imposes certain limitations on the design of the structure, the engineering analysis of the building allows for greater flexibility in the design, while ensuring it can withstand the actual natural forces the structure will experience.
In almost all cases, Mascord designs will require site specific engineering analysis. This analysis is required to be conducted by a professional, such as a structural engineer, who is licensed by the state in which the structure will be built. The analysis is specific to the exact building site - for this reason, we do not have "pre-engineered" plans that can be built anywhere. An engineer will need to review the plans and provide an engineering analysis report and additional drawings and specifications to go along with your plans for permit submittal. You should allow for additional time and expense to complete this process.
Some regions have additional engineering requirements, such as earthquake-prone areas of California and the Pacific Northwest, or the Gulf, Florida, & Carolina coasts that are frequented by hurricanes. Additional Wind and Seismic engineering drawings are required to accompany your home plans to obtain a building permit in most areas. These additional drawings need to be provided and stamped by a professional licensed in your state. In most cases we have working relationships established with engineers who can help you obtain the necessary drawings cost effectively, or you are welcome to source your own local engineer.
When the design includes retaining walls, these will also require engineering. Although the code provides for some prescriptive basement and concrete/masonry wall designs, these only work in limited situations. The use of site-engineered retaining walls allows for much greater design flexibility and ensures that the walls are designed specifically for the design loads, unique soils, fluid pressures, and drainage characteristics at the building site. It makes little sense to place the most expensive investment a family typically makes onto a foundation that is not designed for the unique characteristics of the land on which it is set.
All Mascord house plans are designed and detailed to conform to The International Residential Code (for orders out of state), or Oregon and Washington local state codes (for orders in those states).
Your area may have also have specific energy codes that have to be followed. Compliance could include filling out forms providing evidence that your construction drawings meet requirements. In many cases the forms are simple and can be filled out by yourself, or with the aid of your General Contractor.
To find out exactly what drawing details you should expect with your Mascord house plans, see "What's included in a Plan Set?"
If you aren’t sure what may be required, contact your building department and ask for a list of all of the items they require to submit for and obtain a building permit.
We typically calculate and provide sizing of beams for a snowload of 25 psf. You may need beams sized to accommodate larger roof loads specific to your region. We are able to help with this; please speak with our sales staff to discuss your options.
Building jurisdictions in several states - including California, New York, New Jersey, Nevada and Illinois - require that your home design is reviewed and your entire set of construction drawings is stamped by a local professional. If you are building in such an area, it is most likely you will need to hire a state licensed structural engineer to analyze the design and provide additional drawings and calculations required by your local building department.
In addition to the construction drawings, you may also need a site plan that shows where the house is going to be located on your chosen property, along with any grading and water management / septic system requirements.
