Between the farms there were traditionally (country) laborers' houses. Old examples are Oosterend 11 (18th century) and the one-room apartment Ambachtstraat 16 (19th century). Plastered are the agricultural laborers' houses Smeekweg 51 (1848) and Melkweg 68 (circa 1850). Weversen day laborers' houses were often combined into long, deep sheltered houses. Dating back to the 18th century, the whitewashed De Rijt 8 (stone 1791) and Zevenend 4c, one of three farm workers' homes, are under a thatched gable roof. Similar properties are Kerklaan 3-5, Molenweg 7-13, Zevenend 14, Kerklaan 11-15 (year anchors '1868'), Nieuwlarenweg 2-8, Drift 9-15 (circa 1900) and Mauvezand 25-31 (circa 1910).
Expressionist details have Veldweg 11-15 (circa 1910) and Jordan 11-13; the latter is designed by H.C. Elzinga. In 1915, H.F. Smit some blocks of workers' houses based on traditional farm building, such as Melkweg 24 and Berkenlaantje 3-5. In addition, there are the necessary notables houses with neo-Renaissance and chalet style details, such as Brink 7 and 19 (both circa 1880), Naarderstraat 48 (1886) - the residence of the painter A. Mauve - and Naarderstraat 52 (circa 1890). From around 1900, St. Janstraat 29 and Klaaskampen date 3-5. A wooden top façade decoration has the house Ooster Laren (Eemnesserweg 21, circa 1905). Plastered facades with colorful moldings and relief arches in clean masonry have Brink 6-8 and the villas Vita Nuova (Hilversumseweg 22-24; 1905) and De Linden (Oude Naarderweg 12).
Large villas were built on the roads of the village. Older examples include Molenweg 1 (circa 1890, plastered) and Schoolpad 1-3 (circa 1900). S. de Clercq and J. Gratama designed the double villa Brink 2-4 (1904). Around 1910 the villa De Viersprong (Burg Van Nispenstraat 31) was created, the estate by A.J. Kropholler with a robust stepped gable in late neo-Renaissance-designed country house Sint Jan (Burg Van Nispenstraat 33; 1910-'11) and the in Nieuw Historizing style country house Naarderstraat 50 (circa 1910) with a bell tower above a cantilevered bay window. Various country houses were erected in country house style with thatched roofs. As in 1902 by H.P. Berlage for R.N. Roland Holst and his wife H. Roland Holst-Van der Schaik designed country house Drift 21-21a, which he expanded in 1913 with a studio (rebuilt after fire 1964). For H. Polak, chairman of the Algemene Nederlandsche Diamantbewerkersbond, Berlage designed the De Heidael villa in the same style (Engweg 21; 1905). The villa De Egelantier (Oude Blaricummerweg 40), built by N. Righter in 1903, served as a summer residence for the illustrator Rie Cramer. In these villas it is characteristic that the transverse house on both sides is extended with side wings. At Wally Moesweg 3 (1905, J.W. Hanrath), the lower buildings have wicker tent roofs. K.P.C. de Bazel made for the ladies C.J. and J. Pabst plans for the large Steenbergen country house (Steenbergen 6; 1911) with its high thatched roof with dormer windows and a cane covered with reeds (rebuilt after fire in 1978). Similar in style is the L-shaped gardener's house Steenbergen 8. De Bazel also designed smaller villas, such as Rozenlaantje 8 (1909) and De Bunt (St.-Jansstraat 57b; 1913). Other reed-roofed villa style villas are De Bijlakker (Drift 12; 1904, J.W. Hanrath), Bloemenwijck (Torenlaan 53, circa 1915) and Sonnewijck (Torenlaan 55; 1914, A.R. Wittop Koning). Many villas were built by more locally known architects. For example, G. van Caspel designed the villas De Hoeve (Torenlaan 59; 1914), Vogelweide (Veldweg 27; 1915), De Vijf (Noolseweg 2; 1916) and Vredelaan 26-28 (circa 1920). From the hand of H.F. Smit are the one-room house at Drift 7 (circa 1910), the house Eemnesserweg 8 (circa 1910), the villa De Noolse Hoek (Noolseweg 1, circa 1915, rebuilt after fire 1925) and the manor De Horst (Raboes 15, circa 1925) and houses Burg. Van Nispenstraat 21-25 (1929). Th. Rueter designed many houses, including De Graanholm (Noolseweg 14-16; 1904) with cross windows and half-shutters, Eemnesserweg 20 (1905), the double house Van Wulfenlaan 8-8a (1927) in an expressionist country house style, and the small wooden manor Raboes 8 (1927).
Also from wood is Vredelaan 16 (1920), designed by Rueter in collaboration with H.F. Sijmons. The Laren architect W. Hamdorffneef of the hotelier named - has made a big mark on Laren's architecture. Early houses in simple expressionist style of his hand are Tafelbergweg 40 (circa 1915) and St.-Janstraat 52 (1918-'20); the latter has a façade sculpture (frog) near the gutter. From around 1920, he designed reed-covered villas in expressionist forms, mostly based on the English model with a room layout grouped around a central hall. Sometimes this is also referred to as the 'Gooische country house style'. An example of this is the gross
