What image pops into your mind when you hear the phrase “Cape Cod-style home”? Are you thinking of the East Coast beaches of Nantucket, Martha’s Vineyard, or the Hamptons? Are you seeing images of large estates with a beautiful home with a front porch and side gables? Perhaps a large lawn with someone playing badminton or croquet?
Whatever you thought, the image probably took place in the summer or when it was warm. That’s because Cape Cod style “embodies the idea embedded in everybody’s subconscious about what a summer home is, what summer vacation is,” according to New York-based architect Douglas C. Wright.
Of course, this is Texas and most of us think of seaweed, tar, oil slicks, and a rusty Winnebago when we think of the beach, but we’ve all seen movies and photos and images of what Cape Cod-style homes look like. Now you can have that look and feel and you don’t have to leave the Lone Star State.
