| The
Tudor Revival Period was from 1900 to roughly 1940. When most
people think "Tudor," they think of decorative half-timbering; however, almost half of all Tudor homes have no
half-timbering. Features of this style include a steeply pitched
roof with side gables, tall and narrow windows in groups, and
massive chimneys. Perhaps the most beautiful residence ever
built in York—City or County—is the Emerton Family
Home,
which is now known as The Hahn Home. Some historians classify
this structure into a "Jacobethian Revival"
sub-category of Tudor.
