Bay Windows

　　Large windows, which are sometimes filled with stained glass or topped with stained glass panels, are also special features in Victorian houses.These bays can either be walkout versions or have a built－in bench.

　　Asymmetrical (不对称的) House Design

　　Victorian era architects loved the challenge of varied roof lines and asymmetrical designs.The houses are made to be individual and unique.Even if the basic design of a group of houses is the same, you can expect to find unique window styles and architectural details that give each house its own personality.

　　Extras

　　Classic Victorian homes have wrap－around porches with beautiful trim and tiny balconies or crow's nests on the upper floors.Some of these porches, balconies and crow's nests are functional, but some are just for show.Nothing is wasted too much for a Victorian home.

　　Finding Victorian Homes

　　Where can you find Victorian style homes? You can find at least one of two Victorian style homes in most urban areas, but some cities have more than others.The Old West End, a famous neighborhood in Toledo, Ohio, has the most Victorian style homes in the United States.San Francisco is also known for its beautiful, restored Victorian homes.Savannah, Georgia is a lovely city to visit and explore, as its many Victorian homes are located on charming squares with interesting gardens and sculptures, making it a fabulous place to visit.If you explore these cities, you will find Victorian bed and breakfasts that are perfect for an elegant stay.
