California Bungalow

Bungalows are 1 or 1½ story houses, with sloping roofs and eaves with unenclosed rafters, and typically feature a dormer window (or an attic vent designed to look like one) over the main portion of the house.  Bungalows commonly have wood shingle, horizontal siding or stucco exteriors, as well as brick or stone exterior chimneys and a partial-width front porch.  Larger bungalows might have asymmetrical "L" shaped porches.  The porches were often enclosed at a later date, in response to increased street noise.
