Tudor
Tudor—a style that was exceedingly popular in America in the 1920s and ’30s, and again in the 1970s and ’80s—embraces multiple stylistic variations.
The traditional Tudor is a masonry or stucco home reminiscent of English manor houses. The Elizabethan variation of this style is more informal and clearly identified by half-timbered exteriors, while the Jacobean variation is an English-Dutch hybrid featuring shaped parapets and gables.
As is so often the case, the wealthy first built homes in the Tudor styles before they filtered down to mainstream America. Tudor, in all of its versions, conveys stability and success. You can identify this style by looking for these characteristics:
- Two or more stories
- Commanding masonry exterior
- Parapeted gables
- Arched entry
- Projecting oriel windows
- Large leaded glass windows with stone mullions
- Steeply pitched roof with cross gables on the front
- Prominent chimney
- Half-timbered exterior where exposed wood timbers mark the structural framework, spaces in between filled with brick or stucco
- Tall casement windows composed of small-paned leaded glass
