From Gatsby to Mad Men: Home decor through the decades

From the tin ceilings of the 1910's to the millennial "snail showers," these design elements and amenities were certainly signs of their times. And, according to Trulia, they can often be big selling points for homebuyers.

The popularity of A-Frame homes rose with disposable income in the late 1960s and early 1970s. When families built vacation homes, they often opted for the A-Frame design for its simplicity and low cost.

This beach house is a double A-Frame with a wraparound deck. The great room has vaulted ceilings and a brick fireplace. And there's an eat-in kitchen with sliding doors out to the deck.

Built in 1979 in Hampton Bays, the home is steps from Shinnecock Bay and it's only a short drive from the beach.
