Excerpt from www1.toronto.ca:
Bungalow refers to a style of house popularized in the United States before WW1 and consists of low cottage-like houses exhibiting exposed carpentry, hence the often-applied qualifier "Craftsmen Bungalow". Another feature is exposed structural framing. Purlins, rafters, plates, braces and posts are highly visible in gable ends, under eaves as well as supporting members for the extensive porches and verandas. Building material varies, but most favoured was the combining of rustic textures, such as stone or brick with a siding such as horizontal board or shingle.
