Everyone knows you’re the ambitious frontrunner of the zodiac, Aries. You like to work hard and remind everyone of just how successful you are. As someone who's always looking ahead to the future, the best house for you is a trendy contemporary. "A baller contemporary new-build is the perfect way for Aries to show off their hard work and efforts," Stardust says. And since these homes are built with all the newest features, you can know for sure you're getting your money's worth.

Taurus: Tudor

Taurus is one of the most choosey signs of the zodiac. You like what you like, and it’s difficult to get you to change your mind. You’re a creature of comfort who needs time and space away from the hustle and bustle to recharge your batteries. "A Tudor is the perfect match for Taurus because it allows them to ground themselves, which will prepare them for any obstacle at hand," says Stardust. Not to mention, your love of aesthetics and art draws you to older architectural styles. With their pitched roofs, decorative half-timbering, and stained glass windows, these homes are the ideal mix of comfort and whimsy.

Gemini: Split-Level

People born under the sign of Gemini often get teased about never taking time to unwind. And while it’s true that your mind tends to wander and your social calendar is always full, you need a place to rest and reset more than anyone. Since you're known for being the most flexible and indecisive sign, you need a house with that same duality. "A split-level will give Gemini lots of space to get into trouble and have a bit of fun," says Stardust. You'll have separate areas for all your hobbies without the hassle of dealing with a full-sized family home. It’s the best of both worlds and the perfect starter home while you figure out your next move.

Cancer: Farmhouse

Believe it or not, you might be the pickiest sign on this list when it comes to home styles! You're the sentimental nurturer of the zodiac, so a house represents all your deep desires to create a happy home and take care of your family. You're also the most emotional sign, so your home must be a relaxing place for you to relax after a long day. "A farmhouse-style home with a pool or nice wrap-around porch to help them decompress is ideal for this sensitive sign," Stardust says.  Plus, since these types of houses are famous for their large plots of land and spacious living rooms, you'll have plenty of room to entertain guests and invite them to spend the weekend.

Life is all about having fun for you, Leo. As the most extroverted sign, you love socializing, but even more, you love being the center of attention.

With gorgeous skyline views and plenty of space for hosting parties, you’ll feel like royalty in this lush space. The neighbors and noises won't bother you one bit. In fact, they'll energize you as a reminder that you're in the middle of everything.

Libras love harmony and balance. You also love love, as the most romantic zodiac sign.

Passionate and intense, you like to make a statement in life, Scorpio. Although you're less obvious about your accomplishments than other signs, there’s very little that stands in your way of getting what you want. One of the reasons you make it so far in life is that you’re very particular about who you trust. You keep your inner circle tight and guard your emotions closely. This means your ideal home will have plenty of cozy hideaways and a lot of character to help set the mood—like a historic Victorian home. "This gothic revival [style] aligns with Scorpio and their darker and edgier desires," Stardust says. Not to mention, it will look great dressed up for your favorite holiday, Halloween.

Sagittarians are known for needing freedom, and as such, it’s almost impossible to tie you down. Your active mind and lust for life often lead you to unexpected experiences. You switch careers, friend groups, and hobbies very often. The same applies to where you live, so you don’t need much space. "While they don't follow trends, the tiny house style is a perfect home to allow Sagittarius to embrace their wanderlust desires," Stardust notes. This pint-sized residence gives you just the right amount of space to store your belongings while you venture out into the world. And with the right amount of planning, you can add some wheels and a trailer hitch and bring your home on the road with you.

Capricorn: Craftsman

Everyone knows you’re the boss of the zodiac, Capricorn. Ambitious and determined, you put in more work than anyone else. However, what some people might not know is that you have a hidden romantic side. You work hard to provide for the people you love, and as such, you view homeownership as a big deal. Style and trendiness don’t matter to you; you’re looking to make a good investment for both your present and future plans. "A Craftsman allows Capricorn to embrace tradition and function all in one while making an investment that's built to last," Stardust says. With its clean lines and sensible floorplans, this is a house you can grow into no matter what stage of life you’re in.

As the empathetic and intuitive zodiac sign, you tend to overextend yourself on behalf of others. You feel all your emotions intensely and all at once, Pisces. This can make the world very overwhelming for you and leave you exhausted. That’s why you need a sanctuary space to get away from it all. Beach bungalows "have a rustic charm that is perfect for allowing Pisces to add their own touch," Stardust says. Creative by design, this house style will embrace your artistic side and give you access to your favorite place—the ocean.
