We have a beautiful ranch for sale in Howell New Jersey and I want to highlight what a Rancher is, and why this style of home is perfect for everyone. While researching I clicked on the Wikipedia link and got a list of features specific to ranches. If these qualities appeal to you, then a "Rambler" might be in your near future.
Features of a Ranch Style Home:
- Single story
- Long, low roofline
- Asymmetrical rectangular, L-shaped, or U-shaped design
- Simple, open floor plan
- Living areas separate from the bedroom(s) area
- Attached garage
- Sliding glass doors opening onto a patio
- Large windows, often decorated with shutters
- Vaulted Ceilings with exposed beams
- Exteriors of stucco, brick and wood and glass
- Large overhanging eaves
- Cross-gabled, side-gabled or hip roof
- Simple and/or rustic interior and exterior trim
- aluminum windows (usually replaced), popular in the 1950s and 1960s
