I've been in many fraternity houses throughout New England. The one thing I like is that many of them are converted from old mansions or houses. They have a certain "charm" and "home-like" characteristic to them.
The one type of house that I cannot stand is the dorm style, concrete walls, 10 x 10 square room that looks more like an institution than a home.
A fraternity house should have character, history, most important, flaws. You want brothers to carve initials into a closet door. You want the memory of some stain on the ceiling. It is so tough to get that type of history and memory from a dorm style house. Not that it can't be done, but it is so difficult.

Oh Do I agree with you on that point!
Cement Block Building with names or letters, GAG!
Quaintness is a big part of a Chapter house, not like a dorm or prison!
