What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Bud Dietrich, AIA to Capes Across America
This is an 18th century, Mid-Atlantic version of the Cape Cod style home in Colonial Williamsburg. The simple rectangular shape of the main level and steeply pitched roof gable that starts at the first floor ceiling line are features of the style. So are the three doghouse dormers that add ceiling height and light to the second-floor rooms. Unlike the New England version with its central fireplace and chimney, this Cape has the fireplace and chimney placed at the side, a true response to the milder Tidewater climate.
