An eclectic blend of the Queen Anne, Tudor Revival, and Craftsman styles.
At the end of the Victorian era, many wonderful houses were built that combined elements of the popular styles of that era with elements of the emerging styles of the new century. This is a lovely example in Birmingham, AL. It is essentially a Queen Anne form with detailing in the Tudor Revival and Craftsman styles.
Understanding the style of a house is the essential first step in developing a restoration plan that prioritizes the preservation and restoration of character-defining features while making changes necessary for modern life in an old house.
Queen Anne, Tudor Revival, and Craftsman are three of the 25 styles and types illustrated in Chapter 2 of “Restoring Your Historic House, The Comprehensive Guide for Homeowners.” The 720 page award-winning and best-selling hardcover book is available in bookstores and from online retailers.
Signed and personalized copies are available directly from the author in the shop on this page, https://yourhistorichouse.com/shop/.
Your local bookstore can order copies from W.W. Norton.
