Tudor Revival homes are often made of brick or stone and are asymmetrical with steeply pitched roofs, decorative half-timbering, and quaint detailing. According to a 2008 survey, Tudor Revival is the second most prevalent architectural style in Kenilworth. 132 Abingdon Avenue is located in the Kenilworth Beach subdivision.
