English Cottage

The English Cottage style imitates the Arts and Crafts English country houses of the late-nineteenth century, which are themselves an imitation of rural, vernacular cottages mixed with medieval themes. Look for steep roofs, brick or stucco wall covering, decorative half-timbering, arched doorways, and other Tudor-style embellishments.
