Our House

August 2009. This is Our House...

Circa 1919 she’s a lovely Victorian era village home.

Unfortunately, I have been unsuccessful in identifying her true architectural style other than I believe she is partially Folk Victorian and partially Queen Ann Victorian. Apparently Folk Victorians do not have bay windows or turrets and are simple square houses. Queen Anns, on the other hand, generally have much more elaborate detailing and are non-symmetrical. Our House is somewhere in between. If you know what she is, please let me know.Regardless of her architectural category, we adore her with all of her amazing attributes like the wraparound porch you can see here. Inside, the woodwork is stunning -- arched entries to the living room and dining room, French doors, oak floors and wood trim.
