Cape Cod 1710-1830
Some characteristics and architectural details of antique homes: Some of the first houses built in the United States were Cape Cods. The original colonial Cape Cod homes were shingled-sided, one and a half storey high, with steeply pitched, gabled roofs, large central chimney; with no dormers. Light for the attic came from windows in the gable ends. During the mid-20th century, the small, uncomplicated Cape Cod shape became popular in suburban developments. A 20th-century Cape Cod is square or rectangular with one or one-and-a-half stories and it may have dormers and shutters. The siding is usually clapboard or brick. Three basic designs: Half Houses two windows to the side of the front door; Three Quarters House two windows to one side of front door and one to the other side and Full Cape with two windows on each side of the front door.
Would you like an urban location, perhaps in Boston proper, or did you have a suburban town in mind? In southeastern Massachusetts perhaps Attleboro, Norton, Mansfield, North Attleboro, Easton or Seekonk are the right place for you. Or would you like the wooded, quiet roads of the Dighton / Rehoboth? Or maybe Foxboro, home of the New England Patriots? I travel, all over Bristol County and Norfolk County to help buyers and sellers meet their real estate needs. How can I be of service to you?
No matter your reply, As a Realtor I can offer you professional service to help you find the home of your dreams.
