The first ranch homes were marked by their single-level layouts with simple, long and low exterior designs and clearly defined living and sleeping quarters. Today's ranches are still one-story homes, but they come in a wide variety of architectural styles and many have updated interiors with split bedrooms.
A typical ranch has a horizontal profile with low-pitched rooflines, open-concept living, and plenty of windows/patio doors to connect to its surroundings. All the living spaces and bedrooms are conveniently located on one level to create a seamless layout where everything flows together.
Ranch designs are particularly accessible thanks to their single-story layouts and open, well-connected spaces. This is why they're a favorite for families of all ages! Many people also love the seamless connection between the interior and outdoors. Finally, simpler structures with low roofs are easy and affordable to maintain over the years, so they make a great long-term investment.
