Described as "a laid-back, low-slung residence with an open floor plan and sliding glass doors that linked it to the backyard....usually only one or two rooms deep with porches extending along the front and courtyards or patios in the back—perfect for enjoying fresh air and sunshine...typically feature low-pitched roofs with deep overhanging eaves—a characteristic that reinforces these homes’ horizontal appearances...the real outdoor action takes place in the backyard...ranch homes were designed for families to enjoy their leisure time in the backyard—unlike earlier architectural styles that included front porches that served as outdoor living rooms...."
