Shingle

This American style originated in cottages along the trendy, wealthy Northeastern coastal towns of Cape Cod, Long Island, and Newport in the late 19th century. Architectural publishers publicized it, but the style was never as popular around the country as the Queen Anne. Shingle homes borrow wide porches, shingles, and asymmetrical forms from the Queen Anne.

They're also characterized by unadorned doors, windows, porches, and cornices; continuous wood shingles; a steeply pitched roof line; and large porches. The style hints at towers, but they're usually just extensions of the roof line.

 

 

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.
