The Most, Least Desired Home Styles

Share

Americans love a ranch-style home, which is the most admired home layout in 19 states, according to a new study from American Home Shield. Researchers analyzed thousands of real estate listings across the country to identify which common home styles are most and least admired in the U.S.

Preferences in house style can differ significantly across the country. The study provides a further breakdown of the most popular home styles in the largest U.S. cities.

Meanwhile, the least desired home styles appear to be shipping container homes and tiny homes, the study finds.
