Re: What is your Favorite Style of House?

I love our Cape Ann and it's on three acres. Live in the country love it. If we ever moved it would be a ranch house  because of the stairs or stay and put a chair lift.

I'm partial to several traditional styles, @CANDLEQUEEN - and way at the other end, I also like a lot of well-done midcentury modern houses.

 

My favorite though, because of the storybook aspect and whimsical charm, would have to be Tudor Revival:

The half timbers, the variegated brick, steep roof and a real turret-   love!


@Oznell   Very beautiful, and fairy tale like !  I never saw this style home before .  I would sell my home and move in if it were a possibility 😉.

I've seen some homes that didn't really have a defined style and wanted them.

 

I like a lot of windows.

 

I love rustic most; gothic, carpenter gothic more.  I love Victorian.

Cottage. We built our house a few years ago on our favorite lake in upper Michigan and built a perfect little yellow sided, white trim with adorable corbels cottage.

Re: What is your Favorite Style of House?

I like different house styles for different areas. I like the house to compliment the area where it is located.

I like large A Frames with big windows in the Mountains and on the Water. I also like pretty Cottage Homes on the Beach or Beach Town.

I like Farmhouse Modern in a country(ish) setting.

I like Tudor, Craftsman,  and sprawling Ranch Homes.

It's more like What Don't I like. I just like a beautiful home in a beautiful location.Woman Happy

Re: What is your Favorite Style of House?

I like Craftsmens homes. They have built-in bookcases and lovely fireplaces. I don't care for the open concept homes. I like a separate kitchen with a door.
