The
New England Colonial
style simplified the picturesque Queen Anne and so appeared after the
Queen
Anne fell out of fashion. The New England Colonial was one of many
revival styles which became popular by the early 20th century.
Another name for this style is the four-over-four because of its basic rectangular floor plan of four rooms on the lower and upper levels.
Since
this house has remained popular over the decades, its date of construction
can only be determined by minor details in the building materials, such as
1920s-1930s reddish brick on the
foundations, driveways with two cement
lanes separated by grass,
and the
width and height of garages. 
All New England Colonial
style houses have these features:
