Bungalows

 

When I hear the word "bungalow" this is what I think of.  A cute little house.  This one is located in the FQ Story historic neighborhood.

Here's another example that fits my description.  This one was found in the Fairview Historic neighborhood.  

This one looks a little more modern than the first two houses but I'd still classify it as a bungalow because of its size.  It was found in the Idylwilde Park historic district.

This one has one of those turrets that I talked about in yesterday's post.   I'd still call it a bungalow.  This one is found in the Willo historic neighborhood.

Bungalow is a funny word, don't you think?  I looked it up and it describes a "small house or cottage that is either single story or with a second story built into a sloping roof."  I think these four fit nicely into that description.

I like them all. I grew up in a bungalow. They are perfect for small families.

I agree that they all are my idea of a bungalow too, Sharon! I grew up in one.

I love that last one, great roof, and oranges in the side yard.

I've never really thought about what constitutes a bungalow. Is the word Indian in origin? (As in from India.) It sounds like it. Now I'LL have to look it up!

I have some very nearly identical to these in my neighborhood!

It is a fun word, we have a lot of bungalows here, although no one uses that word here about them. I like your photos.

The last one is my favourite. Beautiful.

Like them all Sharon but the last bungalow definitely has the wow factor 💜

The last one is my favourite, it's very 1930s looking
