This Virginia townhome was probably built by James Dinsmore, master craftsman to Thomas Jefferson, and demonstrates Jefferson’s inspired Palladian approach to the brick materials of the region. Reminiscent of the style of Monticello, this house consists of 2 principal floors over a basement, as well as rooms in the attic.
As a document of our unique American architectural heritage these drawings stand on their own. The plans themselves could easily be adapted to the design of a new townhouse, comprising up to 4 bedrooms (including the attic), over a first floor suite of Living Room, Dining Room and Kitchen.

IF YOU ARE PLANNING TO BUILD:
These plans are not complete architectural drawings as might be required by your local permitting agency and do not contain all the structural, waterproofing and other details and information necessary for construction. But your local builder or architect should be able to adapt these drawings and add to them as necessary. What they do provide is accurate design information about a REAL historic house, not a pseudo-historic tract house as you will find in the house plan magazines on your supermarket shelf.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS PLEASE NOTE:
Orders shipped to addresses outside the USA may be subject to customs duties at their destination. The buyer is responsible for any such duties.
The original drawings from which these dimensionally accurate scans were made are kept at the Historic American Building Survey, in the Library of Congress.
