Understanding various house styles that are popular today will help you make a perfect choice and have prior information before approaching your agent. Here are the top 25 popular home styles to consider in your search for a new property.

1. Colonial

Colonial houses date back to the 17th century. Like their Cape Cod counterparts, these homes have rectangular, symmetrical designs, with windows evenly spaced and the front door at the center.

Colonial houses come in numerous variations, like the Spanish Colonial home, depending on the origin of the people who settled in the region. These variations include the Dutch, English, Georgian, American, and Spanish Colonial houses. British and Georgian Colonial Revival homes are the most common in the U.S., thanks to the massive settlement of the British in the United States.

Colonial Revival homes are typically one or two stories tall, with a centrally placed stairway and grand entryway. They’re quite common on the East Coast (in cities like Pittsburgh or Boston), though you can find them anywhere across the country.

Pros

  • A natural environment surrounds most Colonial houses
  • These homes provide you with ample growing space
  • They’re easy to decorate and modify using modern or contemporary elements
  • They’re cheaper to heat in winter
  • The Colonial and Colonial Revival homes enjoy a larger market for resale
  • Room compartmentalization boosts privacy

  • Most Colonial Revival homes have no steel reinforcement, increasing the risk of the house falling
  • Accessing rooms at the top can be hectic for owners with limited mobility

2. Cape Cod

Cape Cod homes emerged in the United States in the late 1600s, borrowing architectural designs from Britain’s thatched roofs. The English settlers first built these styles of houses in Massachusetts in their namesake city, Cape Cod.

The design borrows from ancient English half-timbered houses, with alterations in frames to match the harsh climate. They’re attractive but hardy houses, designed to withstand the harsh winters in New Zealand.

Originally, Cape Cod homes were simple structures with roof shingles, wood siding, a centrally-placed door, and windows on either side. The current Cape Cod designs incorporate more elements, with the homes having more space and including more windows.

Cape Cod homes are typically one-and-a-half stories and are common in suburban communities.

Pros

  • The straightforward shaped roofs are easy and less costly to replace
  • The home layout is warm and welcoming
  • The roofs are strong enough to withstand harsh winter weather
  • They’re the perfect size for small families
  • They have instant curb appeal

Cons

  • The homes are difficult to expand without losing the original design
  • The second floor of Cape Cod homes gets uncomfortably hot in summer
  • It’s not easy to maintain even heat distribution in the home

3. Contemporary

People usually are mixed up between Contemporary and Modern homes. However, each of these two architectural designs has distinctive defining features. Contemporary homes focus more on using sustainable and non-toxic materials, maximizing energy efficiency, and allowing a lot of natural light.

Unlike Modern homes, which represent a definite period (like in Mid-Century Modern), Contemporary focuses on the present. These homes are designed with the future in mind and are meant to remain trendy.

They typically include modernist elements, boast eco-friendly materials, and come in clean lines, minimalist, simple designs, and natural textures. Most Contemporary homes have color palettes, including many neutral shades with pops of other tints to top the interior.

Contemporary homes are common across the country’s cities, especially with new buildings. But, not all new constructions have Contemporary architectural designs.

Pros

  • They’re unique and personalized
  • They’re intended to save energy
  • They have an open-floor layout
  • They require low maintenance

Cottage-style homes started in small towns and villages in Europe. They were originally used as farm hand residences before spreading to other parts of the world.

Cottage-style homes are popular for their small size, with stone or wood siding, a gravel or brick walkway at the front, and curved entryways. They’re usually one to one-and-a-half stories tall, with small porches and cozy and informal interiors.

They’re common in the United States, particularly in antiquated residential communities. They come in various designs, including Tudor houses, bungalows, and more.

Pros

The Craftsman homes feature open floor plans, flat or low-pitched roofs, wide front porches, big fireplaces, built-in furniture, and exposed beams. These homes also emphasize the use of beautiful, hand-made natural materials.

Craftsman-style homes often include geometric stained glass, artisan windows, and naturally toned woodwork, among other beautiful built-in features. Their color patterns often take the earthy and natural feel, with shades like rusty orange, forest green, and natural browns making the majority. They can also include several variations, including bungalows or Mission-style structures, and are widespread across the country.

Cons

  • The separate kitchen, dining, and living rooms can make your tasks more hectic

Farmhouse-style houses were first built in the United States in the 1700s and 1800s. They started as rural homes for owners who preferred the agrarian lifestyle. The key features of this design include functional porches, tall ceilings, a central fireplace, exposed beams, and a rectangular design.

Farmhouse-style homes can sometimes have barn-shaped roofs, while others don’t have the feature. These designs boast rustic materials, with bare brick, stone, and floor-to-ceiling windows in the sitting rooms.

Their paladin or three-way windows, two flanking lights, and the elliptical fanlight (windows) are some of the features that set them apart from other options. Also, they don’t have typical elements like pillars.

While Federal-style houses may look like rectangular or square boxes, these homes can be bigger, including two to three stories. Also, federal-style homes have more ornateness and are more elegant than simple colonial-style houses.
