Cape Cod Style in Carpinteria, Estate of the Day
Today's home has East Coast style with the luxury of West Coast weather. This compound is located in a colony of beach homes on Sand Point Road in the coastal community of Carpinteria, California. The five-bedroom estate includes both a main house and a guest house. The design takes the traditional Cape Cod style and lightens and brightens it with an exterior of bleached cedar shingles and an interior of large windows and white beams. The home is practically perfect (maybe the media room is a bit off but other than that, wow). Because it is Carpinteria though you'll pay through the nose for a home like this. It's listed at $32.5 million and doesn't even seem to have a pool.

The people on the cape are probably cringing at the thought that this unattractive house is characterized as "cape cod style".
I will tell you what style it is- it is "no style".
Where is the unity, symmetry, or balance that any attractive traditional house requires?
This house looks more like a showhouse for Anderson windows- because so many different types of windows are represented.
I do enjoy this blog, but I am often puzzled by the unattractive houses that are showcased. This is a prime example.

"This house looks more like a showhouse for Anderson windows- because so many different types of windows are represented. "
What are you talking about? All the windows pictured have a square pattern. Some are larger than others, but all have the same style.
