English Revival homes usually feature stucco walls and gable roofs of steep but <br />not exaggerated pitch. A characteristic roof treatment incorporates uneven rakes, with one side of a gable extending a greater distance <br />than the other, sometimes changing the angle of slope in the process. Arches maybe used for windows and doors, and, unlike their <br />Tudor cousins, are rounded rather than pointed. Windows are usually clustered in groups on the facade and are often multi-paned <br />casement in type. Almost exclusively a residential style, English Revival buildings are nearly always asymmetrical in composition. <br />SUMMARY/CONCLUSION: <br />The Larsen-Wahlberg House qualifies for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1 for its <br />exemplification of the distinguishing characteristics of the English Revival style. Additionally, the house has been categorized as <br />"Key" because it is associated with avocado industry pioneer, Harold Wahlberg.
