A Victorian home is defined by a distinguishable aesthetic. These homes are known for their elaborate and ornate architectural details, asymmetrical facades, steeply pitched roofs, bay windows, gable shingles and wrap-around porches.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:10px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The most common style is Folk Victorian which is less elaborate and has more regular floor plans.
