Storybook English Cottage

Whimsical and Romantic Design

American architects, inspired by the medieval English countryside, designed the charming and romantic English Cottage style that captures hearts. These cozy homes feature irregularly shaped rooms, steeply pitched roofs, and often include elements like stone or stucco walls. They are smaller and more streamlined compared to Tudor-style homes but share similar enchanting lines and fairy-tale charm.

Adding to their storybook appeal, English Cottage homes often have half-round doors and boxed windows adorned with greenery. These architectural details enhance the whimsical and cozy feel, making each home unique and inviting.

English Cottage homes are prevalent on the Eastside of Portland, OR but you’ll find a high concentration in these neighborhoods.
