Dunedin, Florida: Beautiful Craftsman Style Bungalow Home Near Downtown

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Craftsman Style Bungalow Home Pictures House Pictures Downtown Real Estate I was enjoying a walking photo safari one day when I found myself in a small neighborhood of beautiful older homes, just south of downtown Dunedin. I think this might be considered a craftsman style bungalow. Although it may have outgrown the bungalow part just a little, what with being two stories and all.

There's not a lot about this house that I don't like. The architecture is beautiful. Well, perhaps I might not have chosen that color, but I can't say it really looks all that bad seeing it on the house now. But I have never been all that good at picking paint colors anyway.

If you're interested, it looks like Amazon.comhas a number of interesting books on The Craftsman Style. Some are 5-star rated. Here are just a few for example (hover over the titles to see a product preview):
Stickley Style: Arts and Crafts Homes in the Craftsman Tradition
Gustav Stickley's Craftsman Homes and Bungalows
Craftsman Style
Craftsman Bungalows: Designs from the Pacific Northwest

Dunedin, Florida: Downtown Building Architecture Styles

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Downtown Building Architecture Styles I admit it... I know nothing about this building. I don't know what they do there. I don't know who owns it. I don't know what the cross street is.

Well, I guess I know a little: It is on Douglas, about a block north of Main Street in Downtown Dunedin. I know that, although I am not sure the style matches the neighborhood all that much, I kind of like it.

Dunedin, Florida: Downtown Dunedin Yellow Wall

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Downtown Dunedin Yellow Wall I don't know who is responsible for this yellow wall in Downtown Dunedin, but they did it right if you ask me. I love the texture, and the lines, and the great color. It may seem rather utilitarian, just being a wall, but they made it an attractive part of the Downtown atmosphere!

Maybe if someone out there knows who made this wall happen, you might leave me a comment, as I would love to give credit for this one. Meanwhile, I am off to look for more walls, more lines, more texture. Texture, of course, including just about anything and anyone I can catch in my viewfinder! :)

Dunedin, Florida: Neat Buildings: The Dunedin Woodwright

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Neat Buildings Architecture: The Dunedin Woodwright I pass this building several times a week, when I go for a Downtown Dunedin Lunch. Every time I go by, I think about getting a picture, because I love the way it looks. This is the kind of house I would buy in a heartbeat if I could.

But more importantly, this is the home of The Dunedin Woodwright. High end furniture, as I understand it. Sadly, there is no website to link you to! Something I will have to contact them about rectifying! ;) I love real woodwork. I hate that I can't afford it. Yet.

Dunedin, Florida: Typical Dunedin Homes

HAPPY EARTH DAY!!

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Typical Dunedin Homes This is what some neighborhoods in Dunedin look like. It's pretty typical Florida architecture in some places. Sadly, newer homes often lack the deep shady porches that are so helpful in cooling the home and providing a sense of community. Others give them a truncated sort of porch that really only amounts to lip service.

I have many, many wonderful memories of porches in the houses I grew up in, as well as the houses of my grandparents. The next home I buy will HAVE to have a front porch... or a place to add one on! What about you, are you a porch person?

Dunedin, Florida: Old Rusty Metal Industrial Building: Ready To Recycle

Click for larger picture in a new window
Dunedin, Florida: Old Rusty Metal Industrial Building: Ready To Recycle This place is on my list of buildings I would like to take the time to record thoroughly, with my camera. It's old. It's industrial. It's metal. It's rusty. I love it. I'm one of those people who, IF he had millions, would buy old places like this (and old barns) and turn them into really cool homes that look like old rusty buildings. Makes perfect sense doesn't it?

While I look at something like this and think it should be recycled, I also think how wonderful it is that Nature can, in time, completely wipe away all traces of our existence. Or perhaps I should give that credit to Time, not Nature. Or perhaps it is the Nature of Time? Or they work together? What do you think?
