Our Canadian style house plans are designed by architects and designers familiar with the Canadian market. Like the country, these plans embody a sense of rugged beauty combined with all the comforts of modern homes.

The plans are available in an impressive variety of architectural styles, from cabins and cottages to contemporary and traditional styles that reflect the country's European roots and represent the diverse and unique areas of the country. Every one of the plans featured in this section is made to comply with the International Residential Code for building in both Canada and the United States.

Features of Canadian Home Designs

Canada’s breathtaking wintry areas in the north contain a vast array of cabins and cottages, perfect for use as a vacation home or a year-round family home in the correct location. These types of house plans in Canada typically include rustic exteriors that resemble log cabins by utilizing natural wood materials and more contemporary stylings that take the concept of a cozy cottage and incorporate clean lines and modern aesthetics.

Those looking for a more traditional design can also find plans with a contemporary design perfect for any neighborhood. Whether it’s a two-story modern farmhouse with multiple bedrooms or a quaint two-bedroom ranch home with ample living space, homeowners will find the perfect option. Many plans also include many windows to take in the lakefront, mountain range, or other natural views.

Other common features in our Canadian home plans include additional bonus rooms like mudrooms for extra storage for your winter gear, multi-car garages to protect your vehicles from the harsh winter weather, main floor master suites, large outdoor areas like wraparound porches to take in the views, and home offices to allow you to work from home when it's too dangerous to commute.

No matter the type of style, homeowners can trust that these plans include sturdy and reliable construction – many using 2x6 framing – meant to withstand colder weather. These larger frames also allow extra room for insulation, keeping your home warm and energy efficient. Another common feature of these houses is that they often consider uncommon terrains, such as sloping hills and rocky ground, especially for homes suited to more rural areas.

BCIN - Is This Something I Need When Building My Home?


TPC author Laurel Vernazza

  What is a BCIN?   The BCIN (Building Code Identification Number) is a unique number required on all drawings submitted for a building permit in Ontario, Canada. It may also be used when corresponding with the Ontario Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing regarding any building-related work that may require a qualified firm or designer. This modern farmhouse (Plan #126-1909) is designed with the Canadian homeowner in mind. These house designers are also able to provide a BCIN for this and their
