Notes
  • Significance: The house at 12100 Tulip Grove Drive is a representative example of the perennially popular Rancher model after its 1962 redesign, which, except for some minor changes to its already well-conceived plan, was largely cosmetic. By lining up the roofline of the two wings and reorganizing the facing materials on the elevations visible from the street, Levitt and Sons created a more unified, more horizontal composition that better reflected the popular aesthetic appeal of the postwar, suburban 'ranch' house. Located on a spacious corner lot, this house was built with the optional two-car garage, an option that became increasingly popular over the standard one-car garages over the course of construction at Belair.
