I recently turned down a street lined with some cute little houses and the word "bungalow" popped into my head. So I got to thinking; what is a bungalow anyway. I looked the word up and learned that the name is derived from Bengal and the word 'Bangla' meaning a house in the Bengal style. I had no idea the word had foreign roots.
The word bungalow is used to describe a small house, typically one story similar to a cottage. The houses on this street fit that description perfectly.
However, this tree construction can't be called a bungalow. It is definitely a treehouse and a rather fine one at that.
A lot to choose, they all look very nice.
ReplyDeleteI grew up in a bungalow but not as fancy as these ones. ⎦˚◡˚⎣
ReplyDeleteI've always associated it as a one story house.
ReplyDeleteThat is a lot of tree house.
ReplyDeleteLove the tree house, as it has the best view.
ReplyDeleteNice bungalows. Like the tree house as well, but wouldn't go up there.
ReplyDeleteWow! That is a pretty impressive tree house. Don't bungalows also have front porches as a rule? I thought that was part of the definition too, but I might be making that up.
ReplyDeleteThe bungalows are very attractive. I wnder if anyone uses the tree house, I like it.
ReplyDeleteThe little bungalows are cute, Sharon. That is the tallest tree house I've seen.
ReplyDeleteWow! We need more photos of that tree house. I have a friend who, many years ago, owned a small house just a block or two west of Encanto Park. I envied him for the house and the neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteThey remind me the period in 1920s?
ReplyDeleteI like those, very neat and tidy.
