House #1

House number 1 is a vertical, asymmetric, two story house. It is also a single family home. It seems to have a cross gable roof that is fairly normal to steep slope. It has a bay window, and the rest of the windows seem to be double hung. It seems that the house is made of wood clapboard material. It also has a porch that wraps around the right side of the house. It has trim that wraps around that house, but it does not seem to be anything extravagant. It also has two small gables at in the front of the house. I think that this is a upright and wing house, judging by the roof and the way the left side of the house sticks out more than the right side. It does not have a lower side like most upright and wings, though. I may even say that it is a mix between a Queen Anne and a upright and wing style house. It does not have the towers that seem to be affiliated with most Victorian style houses, but I think that it was built somewhere in that time period.

House #2

House number 2 is a two and a half story house that is asymmetrical and looks to be square in shape. The roof has a very steep slope and seems to be side gabled in the front, with a salt box roof in the back, but it is very hard to tell with the picture that is given. It also has a couple of dormers on the top story of the house. Most of the windows look to be double hung. Judging by the trim around the porch and the towers, I also think that this is a Victorian Era house. It does have a very large porch, which is characteristic of a Victorian house.

House #3

House number 3 is a classic Georgian house. It is a rectangular, symmetrical shape. It has the five windows going across the top, and it has a door in the center of the house. It also has a side gabled roof, that is a medium pitched roof. There is a little bit of an over hang on the roof, which is not typical of Georgian households, but I think that it suites this house very well. There is a nice molding going...
