Don't make you house what it isn't
This questionnaire will help identify the style of your house
Answer these questions and automatically receive an indication of what style of house you likely have. The questionnaire uses a points system to guess your house style. Please note that results will vary and that this tool looks primarily at house styles that are described in this website.
Over the years many houses have undergone transformations that may obscure the original style so, when answering the questions, try to think about your house as it may have been when it was built.

#6 should have more choices because it doesn't give an option for the 2-3 story crafstman/Queen Anne homes of the 1920s that prevail in the Midwest — Jan Bentley
Thanks Jan, that's a good point. We will have a look at expanding those options. — Brian
Thanks for the great site. I'd like to suggest that the window photos in #4 be made bigger -- they're very hard to see. — Amanda
what about brick pillars? — scott
Shouldn't there be a question about the year the house was built? Wouldn't that narrow it down? This quiz was very far off from our house style. — tyler
It was hard to describe my house with these limited choices. It's a split level with high curved ceilings and picture rails through out, there's a step up in the living room with several arches and door moulding that I can't find a match to anywhere and double french doors on either side of the fireplace lead to the deck out back. There's an entry garden room and the exterior is a weird cobble of materials. I'd really like to know the style of my house since it might help me find matching moulding for some rooms we are renovating. — Charlotte Laihonen
Charlotte based on your descriptions I would guess Arts and Crafts is the base for your house. Often Queen Anne and Arts and Crafts elements were combined. — Brian
I'm just not finding the style of my home. I've looked everywhere. I have a picture if someone would be willing to look at it? I'm thoroughly exhausted frm searching thru site & photos, styles etc. Please Help? — Kelly
Very nice site! — alexa349
Can't find our house here or anywhere. We have a flat roof 3 story brick twin. It's not a Victorian or Arts & Crafts. 100 yrs. old. — Diane
Hi Diane, based on your description my best guess would be a variety of Georgian. One style element of georgian is that windows get a little smaller as you go up the stories. Another indication is if extra effort went into making an attractive doorway. Look at the doors of Dublin for the idea. — Brian
My home doesn't "fit" the list. My roof line goes up on one side and doesn't come down. Very "70s" "pop-up" look — jerramye
You have a great blog here! I love the content! — Marzen
