European-style homes borrow materials and exterior details that are common to the French, English, and Mediterranean architectural traditions. The style is very popular today because of the sense of luxury conveyed by multi-peaked rooflines, bay-shaped rooms and windows, and architectural details such as repeating arches, wrought-iron balconies, clay-tile roofs, and decorative stone. Exterior cladding is usually stucco, stone or brick.
