Gabled ell / Northeast US antebellum farmhouse

Last crawled date: 1 year, 10 months ago

EXTERIOR ONLY. NO DEFINED INTERIOR FLOORS OR ROOMS. The design and proportions of this 'new old house' borrows heavily from pre-Civil War Colonial, Greek Revival, and vernacular farmhouses in Upstate New York and southern New England. It doesn't borrow their notoriously low ceiling heights, goofy floor plans, 50 amp electrical service, or $400 monthly heating bills. Thus, the growing popularity of new old houses among those who want the character of an old house, but not the hassle. You might see a house like this in a well-off, quainty-quaint rural town or hamlet in the Northeastern United States-- the kind of place with no shortage of small liberal arts colleges, farmers markets, boutiques that sell long bohemian dresses, and Volvo station wagons. McMansion-shunning custom home builders in the Northeast Corridor will probably have a few houses like this in their portfolio. • Date: 1840s-1880s, 2000s - 2020s • Stories: 2 • Footprint: X] ft² / X] m², X]' w x X]' d • Gross living area (GLA): n/a (no interior) • Bedrooms: n/a (no interior) • Bathrooms: n/a (no interior) • Other rooms: n/a • Garage: none • Four-sided / 360º design • Setting: #suburban #exurban #rural #zone • Location: #america #united_states #usa #new_england #northeast • Typology: #building #house #home #residence #maison #casa #single_family #stoop • Construction: #frame #site_built #lap_siding #clapboard This model is meant for zoning code illustration.
