While many of the house styles brought by the first European settlers to North America remained popular until the mid-20th century, other styles have joined them, adding a vast choice for homeowners.
Whether it’s a Colonial or Victorian look to a bit more Modern or Postmodern, or something in between, there's something for every taste.
