When the public thinks of California style homes, there isn’t one design that takes precedent over the next. California real estate truly showcases all different styles of homes. Some of the most popular California style homes are the mediterranean and spanish style. These homes usually have a light smooth stucco exterior with terracotta tiled roof. These features give the home an earthy rustic look. Next is the modern or contemporary style home. This clean lined and a minimalistic style were originally built back in the mid-20th-century and are known today as the mid-century modern. Today, many home builders are reproducing these contemporary style homes with todays upgrades and technology.  Driven by simplicity and function, these striking homes can be found all over California. Traveling closer to the coastal areas of the state you can truly find every style home imaginable. You may have a modern home built back in 1950, right next door to a remodeled spanish bungalow.
