    As a New Englander, I'll take the simplicity of a white farm house any day. But what a great variety. #9 is also pretty sweet - really like the arches around the porch. What a nice walk you must have.

    Oohhh ... such lovelies to choose from. Since we have been asked to pick favorites, I'm going with #10 or #7. Wouldn't it be fabulous to see the insides of ALL of them!

    Would not be like me to choose a house based on one picture and without seeing the inside, especially knowing that there is something special about each one of them! But if I had to, I'd go with #3!

    I can't choose, but I wouldn't mind walking if I could look at these homes. Gorgeous. I can already imagine the inside of the second one with its windows.

    No. 8 and 9 are my speed. I think it is the pale exteriors I love and the more spare yet still traditional look. If I had these houses in my neighborhood, I would be out running twice a day.

    What a lovely neighborhood! I adore #7. That room with the huge Palladian window and high ceilings must be fabulous. I also love the steep gables, the post and beam porch, and especially the terraced front yard with the stone walls and curving walk. Thanks for the tour.

    I wish I had such lovely architecture to admire on my route :). The architecture you've featured reminds me of the neighborhood I grew up in. I love #3 and #7.

    Number 11. Definitely. Its cute, it seems like littlest- the others just seem massive to me. And it doesn't look perfect or finished, which means it might need just a little love. And I do love me a brick house.

    I have been in 100's of houses in 30 years of house hunting - I would take #1 or #9. Not too big, lots of interest and balance in the architecture. Usually, this translates into the interior spaces as well. Also lovely large lots in your neighborhood - lucky.
    Cheers!

    I'd love to live in any of them. It would be heaven to see inside them all. Would have to see the back gardens too! If I had to pick, #9 is pretty sweet.

    I was recently thinking how fun it might be to show houses in my part of the country. So, this is really fun!

    All beautiful in their own ways...but I kept coming back to #3.

    Now that I'm renovating, I'm second guessing every choice. Love to see the various house styles, paint colors, roof, etc!!

    Hope you're having a merry week, Michele!

    The best part about walking is looking at the houses (especially at night when you can see in the windows...in a non-creepy way of course ha). I love #5. You live in a beautiful area!
