The bungalow style home is a style for those who like to keep it sweet and simple. With it’s lower, broader proportions, and lack of ornamental aspects, this kind of home gets straight to the point and seems to blend into its surroundings.
They became popular when different companies began to offer them in mail order catalogues; they would be delivered with materials and building instructions. Built to meet simple needs, the typical characteristics of a bungalow are limited. Usually only one story, the lower part of the front-facing gable roof covers a large porch. There are wide, overhanging eaves, wood shingles or stucco is used for the siding, and cobblestone for its foundation. Chimneys and fireplaces are also usually cobblestone or brick.
From the front stoop, the front door opens directly into the natural wood finished living room. Ceiling beams are seen in the major rooms, and glass doors open up to terraces. There are sometimes also low shed dormers; and exposed rafters and ridge beams extend beyond the wall and roof. Bungalows never fail to provide a natural wood look, and harmonize perfectly with there surroundings.
