William Boeckelman - Home Styles & Architecture(Page One)  Ranch
This style of house features one-level living. There may be a full or partial basement. Generally, a garage is attached to the side of the house. The major advantage is step-saving convenience. Ranch houses are usually more expensive to build than colonials or split-levels. But they are often easier to maintain than a multi-level house. There are many different floor plans to satisfy almost every desire. The most popular style is the straight side-to-side ranch.  Split Level
This style of house became very popular following World War II because of the amount of space and utility provided. Split levels fall into two types: side-to-side and front-to-back. Many split level houses have a basement. The next level, usually at ground level, contains a den/playroom. The next levels contain the kitchen/dining room/living room and the bedrooms/bathrooms. The attic area offers another level and often can be expanded for additional space in the future.  Colonial
This style of two story house has been a mainstay of residential architecture for many years. These are generally well built houses - many are custom built. Their main appeal seems to be the spaciousness and elegance. There are many variations of colonial style houses available. The colonial house built in the past 40 years may consist of a partially finished basement., a first floor with a living room, dining room, eat-in kitchen, family room, porch and powder room. The second floor contains the bedrooms and bathrooms.  Cape Cod
This very practical one and one-half story style of house has been popular for many years, with most capes concentrated in the northern regions. In the past forty years, hundreds of thousands of cape cods have been built. Many resale capes have been expanded over the years for increased living area. Standard cape cods have a first floor kitchen, living room, dining room, bathroom and a bedroom. The second floor contains one or two small bedrooms. Capes are space-efficient and have maintained their value over the years. Click Here For A Printable (PDF) Version Of Architectural Styles William Boeckelman
