A Cape Cod house is a special type of house that is found in a certain part of the United States called Cape Cod, which is in Massachusetts. It is a small house with a steep roof that goes all the way down to the first floor. The roof is usually made of wood shingles.
The house has a very classic look with symmetrically arranged windows and a chimney at the center. It is usually painted white, with blue, gray or green shutters. There is a door in the middle of the front of the house with a decorative frame around it.
When you go inside the Cape Cod house, you will find a living room, kitchen, and bedrooms all on one floor. The ceiling is usually slanted because the roof is slanted on the outside. The house is usually not very big, but it has a warm and cozy feeling.
Cape Cod homes are very popular in the US because they have a traditional look and feel. People like to use them as vacation homes near the beach because they remind them of times gone by.
