Neo-Classical, Classical Revival, Free Classic Queen Anne, or Late Queen Anne-Colonial Revival Transitional – whatever stylistic term you apply, this house in Talladega, AL, is grand and fabulous.
Some architectural style names are somewhat flexible in their application (though some people reject that idea and are very certain about them). Classically inspired houses of the early 20th century often fall into this territory. While the specific name used may not be critical, understanding the character-defining features of the styles is if you are planning a restoration project.
