A picturesque house with asymmetrical composition and a rich variety of textures and ornamentation. Typical features of the style include patterned shingles, angled bays, porches, towers, ornamental balconies, and scroll-cut, carved, and turned ornament, all of which are found on this house.

Popularized by magazines and house plan books, Queen Anne houses were built from coast to coast. The wood-framed Victorian and Edwardian era houses of northern California often exhibit an exceptional level of ornamentation and detailing.

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.

More than 50 color photos are used to illustrate the Queen Anne style in Chapter 2 of “Restoring Your Historic House, The Comprehensive Guide for Homeowners.”

Signed and personalized copies of the award-winning and bestselling 720-page hardcover book are available from the author in our shop, YourHistoricHouse.com/shop/.

Select preservation titles by other authors are also available in our shop. Save on cost on shipping with our multi-book Combo-Packs!
