What is a Victorian House Style?

Answer:
There is nothing quite so beautiful as a Victorian House Style.
Like life-size dollhouses, the Victorian House Style offers a drama and elegance that is second to none. Victorians are the antithesis of symmetry, offering a whimsical asymmetry to the façade of the home.


The roof of a Victorian House Style is often very steep, with numerous gables and the occasional turret. Visitors are welcomed to the Victorian home by a massive front facing gable and an asymmetrical porch, perfect for lounging on to watch the day go by. The Victorian House style is full of decoration and texture, with gables, windows, and gutters decorated with ‘gingerbreading’ to add a touch of ornamentation to every view. Classic Victorians can be found with textured shingles and other decoration to avoid the appearance of flat walls. Like a giant flight of fancy, the Victorian House Style is destined to appeal to individuals who like a little variety in their lives.
