There are many different styles of American houses. They each have different shapes, sizes, and stories. Here is a little lesson on some of the styles, and how you can recognize them.
Log Cabin (up to the 1850s) 
Log cabins feature log walls, 1-3 room layouts (usually with center passages; called a dogtrot). These homes came about when the earliest settlers began building homes. The most abundant source of material that they had was wood; they also used it because it protected against really bad weather, including snow. They were popular in the mid Atlantic colonies.
Saltbox (1607 to early 1700s)
Saltboxes are known for having very steep roofs that reach all the way to the 1st story in the back of the house. They feature large, grand chimneys and small windows. Most saltbox homes existed throughout and around New England. This is the reasoning for the steep roof; the settlers learned that shingles were good at pushing off rain and snow. Unfortunately, there are not many original saltboxes left. Many of them reside in museums. 
Georgian (1700 to 1780)
Georgian homes are very symmetrical. They have double-hung windows, transom lights, and detail molding on cornices. Georgian architecture emphasizes both Roman and Greek shapes. Georgian homes were throughout just about every colony in the 18th century. The homes are based off of European styles.
Federal (1780 to 1820)
Federal style homes are also very symmetrical. They generally have paneled front doors that have very elaborate surrounding details such as pediments, pilasters, and sidelights. They often, like Georgian homes, have dentil molding on the cornices. Federal style homes derived from Roman architecture. 
Greek Revival (1825 to 1860)
Greek revival homes feature gable ends (pedimented), portico or full width porches that bear classical columns. Americans had just become familiar with Greek democracy, and so they began building buildings that looked just like Greek temples. Soon, it became fashionable for residential homes. People loved the columns and pediments, and they grew very popular.
Gothic Revival (1840 to 1880)
Gothic revival homes have very steep roofs with decorative cross gables and bargeboards. They also have gothic windows (always arched), and doors. They also always will have a porch on the first floor. Gothic revival homes trended in England and eventually made their way to the United States. The style of the homes are similar to those of Medieval homes and churches.
I’ve never bene a fan of Gothic Revival homes. Though I don’t really like any of the Gothic architecture. Especially the churches. The style is so dark and gloomy.
I love Gothic revival churches. I’ve never been a huge fan either of the actual residential homes, but I think the churches in this style of architecture are beautiful.
