Shotgun
Tradition has it that if you fire a shotgun
through the front doorway of this long, narrow home, the bullet will
exit directly through the back door. The style is characterized by a
single story with a gabled roof. Shotguns are usually only one room
wide, with each room leading directly into the next. Exterior features
include a vent on the front gable and a full front porch trimmed with
gingerbread brackets and ornamentation. Mail-order plans and parts for
shotgun homes were widely available at the turn-of-the-century, making
it a popular, low-cost structure to build in both urban and suburban
settings.
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. Phone 508-212-6511, email -ttwombly@jackconway.com
