  1. I love East Coast Colonial Era homes. There's a lovely simplicity to the rooms, and a good balance. I appreciate that you are now focusing on houses that are still standing. The earliest homes vary so much depending on location. The two oldest homes still standing here in San Diego are Casa de Estudillo and Casa de Bandini (now the Cosmopolitan Hotel), which date from the Mexican period. Both were build of adobe brick in the late 1820s, and feature an open courtyard in the center, to take advantage of the climate here.
