Tudor style homes in Roanoke
CNNMoney.com had a really good article on Tudor style homes the other day.
Here’s a short excerpt-
Tudor homes are based on the architecture of England at the end of medieval times. The style evolved during the late 15th century and lasted until shortly after the turn of the 17th century.
Half-timbered, stucco walls, turrets and steeply pitched roofs with cross gables are characteristics of the style. Windows tend to be very tall and panes very small; they’re often leaded in a diamond pattern. Arched entryways and substantial chimneys topped by terra cotta pots are also common Tudor themes.
I’ve always loved the architecture in Roanoke’s tudor homes. The Grandin Village, Raleigh Court and Grandin Court areas in Roanoke, as well as others, have many tudor style homes. There are several tudor style homes on the market in Roanoke right now. Contact me for more information or a no-obligation showing. The picture to the right is from one of the homes currently on the market.
