In Australian cities... there were wave of styles influencing the designs of the houses over decades

There were Edwardian (turn of century), Federation style, Austere (post World War) and this style famously called Californian Bungalow (Calbang)

I think the Californian Bungalow was hugely popular in around 1930-1940s and these days - they are a sought after properties (and pricey ie >$600,000 to $850,000 AUD) as now they are considered inner city location with established ameneties


I really like them. When these houses are renovated - they provide really good character homes


Adelaide city has beautiful samples










Perth




some Melbourne pockets have these houses



with lovely interior
