Synonymous with the East Coast, 'Shingle' is a long-established architectural style that became popularized in the late 19th century. You can find shingle homes all over the country, but the style is best represented in the Northeastern United States, where you'll find classically influenced houses with wood shingle facades dotted all along the coast.
The shingle house style is one of the most distinct and recognizable forms of American architecture, heavily influenced by the Queen Anne style. Built to blend into their natural surroundings, shingle homes feel harmonious with their coastal settings.
