The Ranch Style Home has been popular for decades. Well, actually, almost a century! Have you ever wondered why? Here's a little history. Ranch Style Homes made their debut in the 1920's and were originally based on Spanish Colonial Architecture. Around the 1940's, they were combined with more modern architecture touches that created the California Ranch Style. By the 1950's we saw the Suburban Ranch Style Home come into view. This was essentially a smaller simplified version of the California Ranch. It shared the open concept floor plan and offered a smooth, unencumbered transition to the outdoors and was made popular by the Post World War II housing boom., The 1990's started a revival interest in the Ranch Style Home. Ranch living offered simplicity and an unpretentious way of life. Many neighborhoods that feature Ranch Style Homes tend to be well established, with large mature trees and often offer owner modifications that give them their individual character. Built in 1954, 427 South Hubbard Street will afford the new owner the classic mid-century lines and appointments along with modern day conveniences and features that are valued when choosing a new home. There are living spaces that will provide a lifetime of enjoyment. The spacious wrap-a-round deck includes a wood burning fireplace and gas grill. The breezeway provides safe access in all weather from the house to the garage. The Florida Room will be a favorite place to escape and enjoy the warmth of a built-in fireplace, expansive windows providing an abundance of natural light and enjoyment of the four seasons. The "room for more than one cook at a time" kitchen has the ever popular kitchen sink window and under cabinet lighting. Comfort and charm are the watchwords of this distinctive ranch home
