Model Landmarks
Colonial Gable Cottage
Product Description
This style of worker's cottage dominated the housing market in the 1840s to 1850s before becoming more widely adopted throughout the old west. The houses were generally one room wide with the front steps centered on the front door. By the turn of the century, the style was considered old-fashioned.
The gable is the most common form of roof in many parts of the world. Two sloped planes meet at the peak to form a horizontal ridge line. This model features wonderful details, including the traditional front and back porch, window sills, door details, and more.
A great, one-evening kind of project, this kit includes wooden parts and sandpaper. Wood glue is required to complete the model and is not included with the kit. Not in the mood to build it yourself? Choose the Finished Model version.
To assemble this scale model, you will need a flat work surface that is at least 18" by 18"; white glue, brands like Elmers or Titebond Premium work well; and a knife to separate wood parts from the sheets.
