This is one of the most beautiful classic house design ideas with its historic, traditional two storey timber house style from the nineteenth century in restored condition and situated in Marietta Georgia. Traditional and classic homes can be truly majestic. Usually created by quality focused craftsmen and carpenters with simple honest materials, these building often stand the test of time. Many survive for hundreds of years and look just as good today as they probably did when they were first finished. Homes were traditionally built from wood, stone, and brick and were constructed based on sound building techniques unlike today where everything seemingly has to be meticulously engineered and tested to meet geotechnical earthquake, wind and stability standards.
This gallery shows homes from throughout the modern world, from Europe and the United Kingdom to the Antipodes with New Zealand and Australia, and then across to North America featuring the United States and Canada.
Take a look through this photographic gallery journey and you’ll see some truly magnificent houses that could even called majestic for want of a better term. Some of the houses are quaint and homely and some are gigantic mansions of expanse and spaciousness and some even span the centuries, which is a real statement as to the quality of the construction from bygone eras.
