What were the houses like in the southern colonies?

Answer 1

The houses were mansions on plantations. Those were most of the houses. Other houses were middle sized two or three room houses.This earlier answer was reposted from the question's history.

There were also single room houses and some large house and mansions were in the cities because even then some people had more than a single residence.

Houses everywhere in the world were varied just as they are today. You can see that the people lived both in cities and on farms and plantations. Thomas Jefferson's home Monticello was built in the southern colonies (Virginia) and yet it is just an example that homes vary. The house, which Jefferson designed, was based on the neoclassical principles described in the books of the Italian Renaissance architect Andrea Palladio. He reworked it through much of his presidency to include design elements popular in late eighteenth-century Europe. It contains many of his own design solutions. The house is situated on the summit of an 850-foot (260 m)-high peak in the Southwest Mountains south of the Rivanna Gap.
