HAH! I know that house, it’s right across from the fish pier and beach club. And get this, I live in NJ and just did a random search on the internet for “beautiful homes”. wWhat are the odds that I’d know the property in person so to speek.

I haven’t been to Cape Cod in years, but I’d love to go back. The houses were definitely one of the highlights for me. My vacation pics looked pretty much like yours–house after house after house. I don’t care what they’re called–Cape Cod, shingle, or Colonial–I think they’re all beautiful.

Enjoy the holiday weekend!

DELICIOUS! I soooo love those homes…well, except for the shingle-style one, but the architecture and style is just dreamy!

I’ve never been to Cape Cod but would love to go sometimes. These photos are great. All of the homes are so charming!

Hey, thanks Joe for the clarification! Do you know why many smaller homes have siding on the fronts and shingles on the sides? (Still trying to figure that one out).

Glad you all liked my vac pics. I’m thinking my next trip should be to photograph homes in Key West.

The walkway on the colonial is so inviting. Glad you came back with house photos instead of beach photos. I have plenty of beach here already! Jane T.

Thanks. I love the first cottage and the sprawling add-ons. I also like it when the new houses don’t look new.

These homes are beautiful and may have been on Cape Cod, but they’re not all Capes, by the classic definition.

The first, third and fourth houses are Capes, with a simple rectangular footprint for the main section. The rest except for the last are Shingle-Style homes. The last is classic Colonial.

Here is a good article on how to recognize a true Cape: http://www.capelinks.com/cape-cod/main/entry/how-can-you-recognise-an-original-cape-cod-style-house/

Those Cape Cod houses are so appealing. I just returned from San Diego where I enjoyed looking at houses like I do on every trip. There were many Craftsmen Bungalow style houses in yellows, blues and greens with white trim and great porches. A lot of houses were stucco. In La Jolla the houses on the hill sides overlooking the ocean had lots of glass. I came back with lots of photos of flowers and trees!
