About a year ago we bought an older house that could be described as a 'bungalow.'
Someone told me that it looks like a 'Radley Bungalow' but I can't find any information about those anywhere. Hmmmn. . .
Tax records say it was completed in 1933, but some other paperwork we found says 1921, so it must have been built somewhere in between.
Anyhow, it needs a new roof (not just shingles), it needs to be either re-painted or stripped and sealed, being made of textured concrete block.
It also needs to have the front porch replaced eventually.
And that's just the exterior.
I'm waiting for a copy of 'Bungalow Exteriors' but in the meantime thought you all might have some suggestions as to where to find an online community for bungalow advice. I'd love to be able to post pictures and get feedback from other experienced bungalow folks who know what they're talking about--if we're correct in even calling it a bungalow!
Here's some basic info about bungalows...if you scroll down there are some links to pics of some of the different types of bungalows. They don't have links for all of them, but they list the names so you can google the missing ones and probably find some pictures. Once you know which type of bungalow yours is then you can dig into a more specific search on that type and probably find the info you're looking for. [HYPERLINK@architecture.about.com]
CURB APPEAL on HGTV featured a bungalow style similar to yours within the past few weeks. I love your house. Do you have built-in cabinets in your dining area?
