I always hear about ranch style homes and I know the one I used to live in was one, but what is that exactly?

1-level, 2-3 bedroom home, usually with a big front window, a front door, and back door. Living room and kitchen are in main living area, bedrooms and bath in the back.

Usually a one level house is called a ranch.

It is generally characterized as a one level house. But I think houses that do not have specific "styles" are often lumped into the ranch catagory.

Here is a website that will walk you through the different styles of ranch houses as well as provide a history:

One story house, anything that is one level, is considered a ranch house.

It is a one story 2 -3 (usually) bedroom home. Became popular in the 60's. usually is plain in details, nothing fancy in the way of added architecture. They built complete neighborhoods with the same floorplans, in most major cities as they were fast to build and very popular for first time buyers.

I think it just means a kind of sprawled out, one story house. Kind of ugly, in my opinion.
