Since its inception in 1876, the East Coast style of architecture has found its way into various sections of the country. Many of these old-world residences have beautiful doors as well as symmetrical windows. This type of house has two or three stories, fireplaces, and either brick or wood siding. While the symmetry and side-gabled roofs of Colonial-style buildings are comparable to those of Cape Cod homes, Cape Cod-style homes are typically one-story structures rather than two or three.

Victorian

The Victorian era, which spanned from around 1860 to 1900, is home to a variety of architectural styles, including Queen Anne-style homes. There were many beautiful textiles and designs throughout the Victorian era, as well as a wide range of color schemes and textures. The conventional qualities of a Victorian house are preserved, but the textiles and colors used are more contemporary. In these residences, the traditional and the contemporary may coexist together.

Contemporary

This style is commonly confused with modern, however, they should not be used interchangeably. It’s important to note that “contemporary” refers to the present, whereas “modern” refers to the past (e.g., midcentury modern). Modernist styles are widely seen in contemporary homes nowadays. Eco-friendly materials and designs with an emphasis on clean lines and natural textures can be found in a wide variety of products. With a few splashes of color on the inside, neutral color schemes are the norm

Craftsman

The Arts & Crafts movement, like the bungalow design, spawned the craftsman home. During the early 20th century, this style first arose in California and then spread to the rest of the country. Between 1905 and the 1930s, the craftsman house was at its zenith of popularity and is now making a strong resurgence. In contrast to the ornate Victorian style that preceded it, the architecture was criticized for its simplicity.

Cottage

They are typically referred to as quaint and attractive cottages. Even though they have a limited amount of floor space, they are bursting with personality. England, where working-class farmers lived in cottages, was the source of inspiration. Many of these homes include wood siding, tiny porches, and a fireplace that is warm and inviting.

Mediterranean

A low-pitched red tile roof, arches, grillwork, and a stucco or adobe facade are common features of Mediterranean-style dwellings. With a courtyard and fountain at its heart, the characteristic U-shaped Mediterranean floor plan makes the garden an organic extension of the home’s interior. As a result of its openness to the courtyard, Spanish-style homes have naturally ventilated interior spaces.

Farmhouse

For the most part, the interior and exterior design of a farmhouse-style home are inspired by the architecture of the building that bears the same name. Large front porches, rectangular floor plans with a central fireplace, and high ceilings are common features. The roofs of some farmhouse-style residences are shaped like barns, whereas those of others aren’t. Rustic features, such as exposed brick and stone, are common. Modern farmhouse design incorporates a rustic look with more modern elements, such as clean lines and a more contemporary feel.

Tudor

The distinctive characteristics of this house design, which dates back to the Tudor era in the 15th century, make it simple to recognize. The well-known striped exterior of Tudor-style houses is made up of a combination of brick, stone, or stucco external walls with ornate half-timbering on the second level. Additionally, they have a steeply pitched roof with cross gables, as well as long, narrow windows. Tudor-style homes are most prevalent in the Northeast and Midwest regions of the United States today, respectively.

Ranch-style homes

With linked garages, simple floor layouts, and efficient living areas, ranch-style houses are a popular choice for families. Built-in 1932, the style is still in use today. Styles such as this were a staple of the 1950s and 1960s suburban home building boom. If you’re looking for a home that doesn’t look like a cookie-cutter ranch, look no further. The ranch-style home expanded into bi-level and tri-level residences over the same time. Ranch-style house designs are simple to expand on, which makes them a popular choice for first-time home buyers.

Townhomes

Townhouses are the most frequent form of housing in the United States, having been developed in Europe and then arriving in the United States. Townhomes have more amenities and less upkeep than condos because of their wide layouts, making them ideal for those looking for a low-maintenance option. A rooftop terrace allows residents to take in the expansive views from their two or three-story homes, which often share one or two walls with neighboring properties.
