No matter where you live, you\u2019ll likely encounter a wide variety of architectural house styles just by driving through your neighborhood. From extravagant to quaint, homes across the U.S. hold their own unique beauty and characteristics, just like the people who inhabit them.<\/span><\/p>\n

So, what are the most sought-after home styles in the U.S.? Whether you’re looking at <\/span>homes for sale in Portland, OR<\/span><\/a>, searching for a <\/span>rental house in Atlanta<\/span><\/a>, or you just enjoy browsing homes on your favorite real estate app, read on. Redfin<\/a> breaks down 15 house styles in the United States right now, including insights from Redfin Premier agents on the most popular ones.<\/span><\/p>\n

What are some of the most common house styles?<\/h2>\n

1. Modern-style houses<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Emerging in the 1920s to embrace minimalism and reject the more ornate house styles, modern house styles typically include progressive elements such as asymmetrical exteriors, flat roofs, and integrated outdoor spaces. Many modern interiors also feature minimal molding and trim, neutral color palettes, and metal accents.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a recent Redfin survey, <\/span>Redfin Premier Agents<\/span><\/a> were asked what top home styles are most coveted by homebuyers. 65% of agents surveyed named modern-style homes as one of the top three most desired styles.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Ranch-style houses<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Neutral<\/p>\n

Dating back to 1932, the<\/span> ranch-style home<\/span><\/a> grew in popularity during the 1950s and 1960s, and is still popular today. The iconic ranch architecture features a simple, single-story floor plan, low-to-the-ground look, often with an open layout and occasional basement. This house style typically has a smaller yard, attached garage, and a low-pitched roof. The ranch-style home typically features large windows and sliding glass doors, encouraging an indoor-outdoor living style. A ranch can also be called a \u2018rambler,\u2019 depending on which region in the country you live in and local terminology.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Looking locally, ranch-style houses currently have the highest sale-to-list ratio in a handful of cities, meaning this house style is more likely to sell above the list price. These cities include<\/span> Portland, OR<\/span><\/a>,<\/span> Phoenix, AZ<\/span><\/a>,<\/span> Chicago, IL<\/span><\/a>,<\/span> San Francisco, CA<\/span><\/a>, and<\/span> San Diego, CA<\/span><\/a>. Each of these cities favor the rambler, with a current sale-to-list ratio of over 100%.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. Craftsman-style houses<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Two-story<\/p>\n

The beloved<\/span> craftsman style house<\/span><\/a> came to prominence in the 1900s thanks to architect and furniture designer Gustav Stickley, and has remained a mainstay throughout the 21st century. This staple of American architecture adds charm to any neighborhood with its exterior features, including shingles, low-pitched roofs, and covered front porches. Craftsman houses also feature recognizable interior details such as thick trim, prominent ceiling beams, and built-in shelving and seating.<\/span><\/p>\n

Craftsman homes are a desirable house style across the U.S., and 33% of Premier agents reported that they are a top choice for homebuyers. They are often sold above list price in<\/span> Oakland, CA<\/span><\/a>,<\/span> Seattle, WA<\/span><\/a>,<\/span> Atlanta, GA<\/span><\/a>, and<\/span> Portland, OR<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Mid-century modern-style houses<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Neutral<\/p>\n

Mid-century modern style<\/span><\/a> is part of the modernism movement, which dates back to post-World War II, and remained a fixture throughout the 1970s. A mid-century modern design is characterized by minimalism, clean lines, and floor-to-ceiling windows. You\u2019ll often see open layouts, and a mix of natural and manufactured materials for the interior elements like wood, stone, steel, and plastic.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI listed a home in the <\/span>Hollywood Hills<\/span><\/a> that was a mid-century classic,\u201d says Redfin Premier agent <\/span>Gregory Eubanks<\/span><\/a>. \u201cOver 60+ people came to multiple open houses. It had a koi pond in the atrium area, and the home was beautiful with great views.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The style is still frequently seen today, as 55% of Redfin Premier agents surveyed named mid-century modern homes as a sought-after house style among buyers.<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Cape Cod-style houses<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"cape<\/p>\n

With roots dating back to 1675, the quaint and charming <\/span>Cape Cod-style houses<\/span><\/a> are reminiscent of the classic American cottage style. This house style migrated from England to the United States, maintaining its symmetrical design and central chimney. Cape Cod house styles feature a steep roof to keep snow from accumulating, dormer windows for added light, wood siding and shutters to keep the heat in, and hardwood floors for comfort and practicality.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This house style is prevalent in the northeastern part of the United States, commonly found in the New England cities like <\/span>Boston, MA<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

6. Cottage-style houses<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"two<\/p>\n

Inspired by the medieval styles of the English countryside, American architects designed the cozy<\/span> cottage-style houses<\/span><\/a> during the 1920s and 30s. This house style typically has a steep, thatched roof, arched doorways, shuttered windows, and a warm storybook character bringing to life old-world charm.<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Tudor-style houses<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Neutral<\/p>\n

Originating in the 15th century during the reign of the House of Tudor, this house style is fairly easy to identify with its unique features.<\/span> Tudor-style houses<\/span><\/a> typically have a combination of brick, stone, or stucco exterior and decorative half-timbering on the second story to create the well-known striped exterior. They also feature a steeply pitched roof, cross gables, and tall, narrow windows. Today, tudor-style houses are prominent in the Northeast and Midwest regions of the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n

8. Victorian-style houses<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Two-story,<\/p>\n

Victorian-style houses<\/span><\/a> were first seen during the Victorian Era, from around 1860 to 1900. This house style is best described as a colorful dollhouse with romantic and distinctive features. Victorian-style houses have elaborate detailing in just about every part of the home, from the intricate wood trim, ornate staircases, stained-glass, and decorative woodwork. They have steep gabled roofs, a front-facing gable, patterned shingles, bay windows, a round tower, and a front porch.<\/span><\/p>\n

9. Mediterranean-style houses<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Mediterranean<\/p>\n

Mediterranean-style homes<\/span><\/a> are suitable for warmer climates, which is why this house style became prevalent in Southern California during the 1920s and 1930s. Influenced by the architectural details of countries in the Mediterranean region, they often have low-pitched red tile roofs, vaulted ceilings, arched doors and windows, and a stucco or adobe exterior. The floor plan is typically a U-shape, creating a central courtyard for a garden or fountain.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This house style, which you’ll often find in places like California and Florida, was ranked as a top-three choice by 8% of Redfin Premier survey respondents.<\/span><\/p>\n

10. Contemporary-style houses<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

Contemporary architecture is often used interchangeably when describing modern style architecture. A wide range of recently built homes are built with Contemporary-style architecture. This house style features inventive designs and simple forms without elaborate ornamentation or detail. They usually have geometric lines, large windows and doors to bring in light, and open floor plans. They typically incorporate sustainable and eco-friendly building materials, textures, and components, exposed roof beams, and flat or low-pitched roofs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Contemporary-style houses see high sale-to-list ratio in<\/span> Oakland, CA<\/span><\/a>,<\/span> San Francisco, CA<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>New York City, NY<\/span><\/a>, and <\/span>St. Louis, MO<\/span><\/a>. The Redfin survey backs this up, as 54% of respondents listed contemporary-style houses as a sought-after home type.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

11. Colonial-style houses<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Dating back to 1876, East Coast architecture has maintained its allure in many parts of the United States. These classic homes exude old-world charm with decorative doorways and symmetrical window placement. Many<\/span> colonial-style houses<\/span><\/a> will have two or three stories, fireplaces, and brick or wood exteriors. These features partially explain why 17% or surveyed agents said that homeowners desired\u00a0 this house style.<\/span><\/p>\n

Colonial-style homes are similar to the Cape Cod-style home because of their symmetry and side-gabled roofs, but Cape Cod-style houses are typically one story rather than two or three. Colonial-style houses are common in the northeastern part of the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n

12. Farmhouse-style houses<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Two<\/p>\n

The <\/span>farmhouse<\/span><\/a> was designed back in the early 1700s, built as housing for farmers and all about practicality. Modern farmhouses still exhibit many of the same features that the original design included, like large, wraparound front porches, clapboard siding, large fireplaces, wood floors, eat-in kitchens, and oversized kitchen sinks. Farmhouses were among the most well-liked house styles in the Redfin Premier agent survey, as nearly half of the agents listed them as one of the most desirable to homebuyers.<\/span><\/p>\n

13. Townhouse<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"four<\/p>\n

Originating in Europe and eventually migrating to the United States,<\/span> townhomes<\/span><\/a> are most commonly found across cities in the United States. With the convenience of spacious layouts, townhomes offer more amenities than the condo styles and are lower maintenance than most residential homes. They\u2019re typically two or three-story homes, usually sharing one or two walls with adjacent properties, and a rooftop deck to enjoy sprawling views.<\/span><\/p>\n

14. Row houses<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Row houses<\/span><\/a> are characterized by their narrow, tall, and connected design. These homes are typically two to four stories high, with brick or stone exteriors and charming architectural details like decorative cornices and stoops. Inside, you’ll find cozy, vertical living spaces, often featuring high ceilings and large windows. Row houses are common in coastal cities like <\/span>Baltimore, MD<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>Boston, MA<\/span><\/a>, and <\/span>Philadelphia, PA<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

15. French country house<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"french<\/p>\n

French country houses<\/span><\/a> embody the rustic charm and elegance reminiscent of France\u2019s picturesque countryside. These homes often feature steeply pitched roofs, stucco exteriors, and arched doorways, creating a timeless, fairy-tale aesthetic. Tall, narrow windows with wooden shutters add to their quaint allure, while stone or brickwork adds a touch of sophistication. Interiors typically boast exposed wooden beams, warm color palettes, and cozy fireplaces. The seamless blend of rustic and refined elements makes French country houses a desirable choice for those seeking both beauty and comfort.<\/span><\/p>\n

Home styles with the highest sale-to-list ratio in the largest 12 US metros:<\/span><\/h2>\n

The <\/span>sale-to-list ratio<\/span><\/a> is the final sale price (what a buyer pays for the home) divided by the last list price expressed as a percentage. If it’s above 100%, the home sold for more than the list price. If it’s less than 100%, the home sold for less than the list price.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
