Storybook houses

Every time I walk by this house, I think it belongs in a fairy tale. It's a small cottage and the roof has lichen or some other vegetation growing on it. It's small and cozy and oh so charming. 

This house, a completely different style in every way, also conjured up a fairytale style, mostly because of the beautiful climbing bush arch over the gate. The bit of gingerbread trim on the gables adds to the story feel.

Our area has such a great hodgepodge of architectural styles, including  Craftsman, Adobe, Mediterranean, Colonial, and Tudor. It is extremely rare to encounter something ho-hum, which is why it is so much fun to walk around. That and meeting up with people walking playful pups, of course.
