| Does anyone know what style of architecture these homes are?
Both homes are in Savannah, GA. The first photo, white house with red door, was built around 1930. http://www.corabettthomas.com/savannah/1709-east-henry-street/87726?fr omSearch=results&szMls_Board=all&pageNumber=22&sort=priceAsc The second home, cream and white, was built around 1920. http://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/301-E-46th-Street_Sav annah_GA_31405_M63366-60242 Thanks.

| The second one looks to me like a Mission Revival, or a Spanish Colonial Revival. The stucco, arches, covered patios, etc. The first one is a bit trickier. It would be easy to say Colonial Revival, but I don't know if that is quite right. I think it is more along the lines of "British" Colonial Revival. It brings to mind houses in more exotic colonial locales, like Africa and the Caribbean. |

| First one is a mutt ... the large overhangs are prairie style, the leaded windows are Arts and Crafts and the pillars and verandah are southern farmhouse or plantation. I could also go with "Island Plantation" Second one is also hybrid ... semi-Spanish Colonial, but a lot of "Miami Deco" in there too, or stucco with a strong Arts and Crafts touch. I like them both, even if they aren't purebreds. |

| They both strike me as Prairie-influence. The one with diamond-paned sash seems more classic-revival (or Hollywood) and the other purer prairie. Rather be working from period photos, because I can't tell if something is original or not from small pics. A lot may have changed over time. Basically bungalows both. Casey |
