Silverlake, CA is known for its historic homes. One neighborhood in particular, Bungalow Heaven, is known for its dominant style of early 20th Century style homes-the California Bungalow. Bungalows are 1 or 1½ story houses, with sloping roofs and eaves with unenclosed rafters, and typically feature a dormer window (or an attic vent designed to look like one) over the main portion of the house. They commonly have wood shingle, horizontal siding or stucco exteriors, as well as brick or stone exterior chimneys and a partial-width front porch.
