So/such

alt.usage.english has failed so far to answer it, that is why I dare to bother you. Please, help me.
We can say
Such a beautifiul house
Such beautiful houses
So beautiful
So beautiful a house
but is it possible to say
So beautiful houses?..to my knowledge, no.
Is it a rule that
so beautiful a house must be only singular?
