EASTLAKE HOUSE
In real estate, the Eastlake House is a nineteenth-century-style house with three-dimensional ornamentation made with a chisel, gouge, and lathe rather than the scroll saw.
Many of the parts of the ornamentation resemble furniture legs and knobs. This distinctive type of ornamentation is the major characteristic of this style and separates the Eastlake-style house from the Queen Anne-style house.
The Eastlake House was named after Charles Locke Eastlake, a British architect, designer, and writer who was a proponent of the Arts and Crafts movement. Eastlake’s designs were characterized by their simplicity, functionality, and attention to detail.
The Eastlake House was popular in the United States from the 1870s to the 1890s. It was a reaction against the ornate and elaborate Victorian style that was popular at the time. The Eastlake House was designed to be more functional and less ostentatious than the Victorian style.
Today, the Eastlake House is considered a classic example of the Arts and Crafts movement. It is admired for its simplicity, functionality, and attention to detail.
