Notes
  • Significance: The Cape Cod at 12418 Stonehaven Lane is located in the Somerset section and was constructed in 1960-61. Although larger and better equipped, The Cape Cod model at Belair was the direct descendent of the expansion Cape Cods that Levitt and Sons introduced in 1947 at Levittown, New York. It was the least expensive model in the line at Belair, yet, because of the construction economies inherent to building forms having multiple stacked levels, was not the smallest in total square footage (The Rancher was 150 square feet smaller, but more expensive because it was a one-story house). Levitt and Sons also saved money with this model because the facade, which received the most expensive materials, was only a single story. In a relatively rare instance within Belair, number 12418 is located next door to another Cape Cod (at number 12420) rendered in the model's alternate facade design.
