A Beach Bungalow on Long Island
Tour this cute beach bungalow and learn the difference between a bungalow and a cottage!

This charming beach bungalow sits on Long Island, and since I am a small house person, I wanted to find out the difference between a bungalow and a Cottage. I haven't really given it much thought until now.

In a beach bungalow you're allowed to paint the wood floors! Just kidding.

Here's what I found out: A bungalow is sort of a cottage, but a small single story one, originally designed to provide housing for the working class.

The name originates from British colonial rule in India during which time this style was popularised.

Today I suppose many beach bungalows are used as second homes, as summer getaways with interiors that reflect leisure and a slower pace of life where things are kept simple.
