Described as church-like in appearance, Gothic Revival house plans are commonly found in the Northeast.

The Gothic Revival home is easily identified by its Gothic arches and pointed windows. These home plans are built with a steeply pitched cross-gable roof, grouped chimneys, and a one-story porch with flattened Gothic arches. Gothic Revival home plans are an eclectic Victorian style that features asymmetrical and unpredictable floor plans. Decorative touches abound, including elaborate buttresses, lacy pinnacles, and decorative tracery in the leaded glass windows.
