Brian Sells Chicago · Home Styles – Ranch

Ranches are also known as ‘Ramblers.’ Ranches are characterized by their single-story construction and low pitched roofs. Ranches became very popular in the post World War II era, with a large resurgence in the 1960s as ‘mid-century moderns.’ Most newer construction relies on a second story for additional square footage, meaning you’re likely only going to find ranch styles in older homes. I think this might be a mistake – I mean, I like stairs for exercise, but not for lugging my tired butt up to bed every night! Uncategorized
