Symmetry Saturday Homes seen on our weekly ride around

 

Probably built in the 1950;s but loved and maintained
Not sure if the entire roof is flat.  If so, it would require lots of check to keep rain from standing


All one home and very Modern kinda castle like.  No problem with this roof draining

    Hmmm, I definitely prefer the first for personal taste... am intrigued by the second: a reinvention of the American Gothic Revival style? YAM xx

  2. Both are big houses. Although nice, neither is my style.

  3. We have a bungalow and the roof looks flat from a distance. It does gently slope though and we get no problems with all the torrential rain we get.

  4. Love the house with the steep roof much better than the one with the flatter roof.

  5. For me, the second house is more eye-catching and unique. I'm grateful this week for a normal pitch roof as the flooding rain just has not stopped. And not going to until Monday. Then watch out, our temps drop to 23! Precious will have little opportunity for catio time. Dick is enjoying dry hot air in Mobile Al for the rest of
    the week.

  6. Both look like nice houses but the second one is quite unique in it's design and I find it very appealing.

  7. Always have had a preference for the more "unusual or unique" home (and a big desire to peek inside, usually unfulfilled of course!!!) ... so do love the second one!

  8. There's lots of interesting architecture around you. Thanks for sharing.

  9. I like the 2nd ones looks much better but would not want to live in either one at this time in my life, but before I aged would have loved to move in the 2nd one.. flat roofs are a no for us

  10. The first one looks like a '50s home in South St. Louis, MO. Lots of sprawling ranch style homes. The second home is very interesting. I like them both. Truly is some symmetry going on. Pretty blue sky!

  13. Lovely homes that probably have a lot of history behind their doors.

  15. Those are both really interesting, I'd like to see inside!

  16. So many different styles and types of houses, each loved by someone. I want a tiny home.

  17. Love areas where people have built "unique" homes instead of the cookie-cutter developments like ours. My fave is the "castle" !

    Hugs, Pam

  18. I also like the second home best. Just wouldn't want to be the roofer or have to get something that got thrown on the roof (kid's toys)/
