Generally L- shaped or U- shaped in plan, the Ranch House typically has a one -story profile with strong <br />horizontal emphasis expressed through a low pitched or flat roof with wide overhanging eaves. Asymmetrical in design, <br />the Ranch House is often sheathed in and accented with rustic materials such as board- and - batten siding, high brick <br />foundations, artstone, and wood shake roofs, Indoor- outdoor integration is achieved through the use of recessed or <br />extended porches, set low to the ground, and the generous use of large picture, ribbon, or corner windows. Window <br />detailing can include wood frames, decorative shutters, and diamond- patterned muntins. Ornamentation includes <br />rusticated elements, such as carved porch supports and exposed rafters, uneven rakes and flared eaves, and faux dove <br />cotes and bird houses. <br />SUMMARY /CONCLUSION: <br />The Hensley & Kay House qualifles for listing in the Santa Ana Register of Historical Properties under Criterion 1, for its <br />exemplification of the distinguishing characteristics of the Ranch style of architecture, Additionally, the house has been <br />categorized as "Contributive" because it "is a good example of period architecture" as an intact and example of the Ranch <br />style in the Morrison - Eldridge Park neighborhood.
