Um my rambler certainly does NOT look like that.

A rambler is a home where most of the bedrooms and bathrooms, kitchen, living room, etc., are on the first floor.  Then there is a basement or bottom floor.

FWIW my rambler has 5 bedrooms and 3 full baths and is quite spacious.  We like horizontal living as opposed to a colonial style.[/quote]

Actually, that is more like  a Cape Cod than a traditional rambler.  And I disagree with the PP, ramblers are typically one-story homes where the rooms spread out and "ramble" across a bigger footprint than the same square footage in a multi-floor home.  Ramblers are usually single-floor living and do not include basements or additional floors.  My family has owned a lot of ramblers over the years and very few of them included a basement.  But then, my siblings live in Texas and my parents live in Florida both places where basements are less common.

For some examples/photos, see the Wikipedia link:  [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ranch-style_house[/url][/quote]
