| I'm not at all sure that I would call that house Italianate style. The Mansard roof is a give away. To my way of thinking, that's Second Empire style. Here's a line drawing of a Second Empire house with similar massing... 
Italianate was more of a high Gothic style from the middle of the Victorian age. Homes of either style would have been VERY out of style in the 1920s when George met Mary. Brick is also VERY Victorian and also very characteristic of the Queen Anne "superstyle." This is a picture of my parent's house (Dad grew up here, Mom and Dad bought it from Grandma and Grandpa's estate several years ago). No, that's not me out front, either. :-) 
The massing on the front of the house isn't quite a traditional turret, it's more of an Orel, I suppose, but the house, built in 1903, is a good example of the late, less stylistically complex, Queen Anne. This house is one I almost bought a number of years ago. It's a B&B below Pittsburgh. It's a rare member of the private home Richardson Romanesque wing of the Queen Anne style. Romanesque Revival was very popular in western Pennsylvania. 
When I was considering purchasing it I e-mailed a professor of architecture whose website I found. It discussed a lot of different American architectural styles, and I wanted a better read on what I was looking at. His first line in his reply e-mail was "MY GOD what a lovely house!" :-) Unfortunately, several hours later I found out that I had missed buying it. Anyway, it has a more distinct turret on it. |
