Is this house a Tudor?

Jennifer Smith sends us this mystery:

I bought this house last year and would like to know more about it. It was built in 1938, but that's about all I know. The realtor listed the style as "other," which was no help at all. It appears to have some Tudor influence and has a stucco exterior, but the side view is basically a cape with from and rear shed dormers. I am particularly interested in other siding possibilities, as we live near the ocean and have quite a time keeping paint intact. Vinyl is maintenance free of course, but if I have a real Tudor on my hands I'd hate to ruin it. Any advice would be appreciated.

Can you describe the style of this home?
