Mr. and Mrs. Robert Eppelheimer’s house at 510 Crown Street combines the spacious charm of a fifty-year-old Dutch Colonial house with the elegance of modern decor. This house, which will be on the June 5 House Tour, was designed and built in the 1920’s by H.C. Callendar, a Greencastle architect, as a model dwelling in a style then coming into favor. The Eppelheimers purchased the house some two years ago and have been restoring and renovating it ever since. The frame structure was covered several years ago with aluminum siding which makes for economical maintenance. Suspecting that the original Crown Street brick sidewalk might still be in place, Mr. Eppelheimer dug and discovered that the walk was still intact. He rolled off sod about six inches thick and restored and the walk to usefulness. The long living room is developed in traditional style with celery green used in the carpet, davenport, and antique satin tie-back curtains. A pair of red velvet Queen Anne chairs flank the fireplace, while a spinet piano fits into an alcove at the end of the room. The portraits of the Eppelheimer daughters, Sally and Peggy, painted by Mrs. Dodie Hecko, provide an interesting touch in the living room. Each portrait was painted when the subject was eleven years old. Other decorative features in this room include the figure of a large, white whippet dog and handsome needlepoint cushion made for the piano bench by Mrs. Eppelheimer’s aunt. The dining room is developed in Early American style. The wallpaper and fabric for the cafe curtains are companion patterns in red and green stripes. The table, chairs, and Welch dresser are in maple while the handmade Sampler chest from the Homer. Indiana collection is cherry. The Eppelheimers completely modernized the kitchen using avocado

appliances and cabinets. The walls have yellow checked paper and the blinds are yellow, while the cafe curtain and floor covering are avocado. The downstairs bath room presents a spectacular appearance. created by the use of blue, brown and cream flowered companion paper and fabric in the shower curtain. The windows and rug are in compatible shades of blue. Each room upstairs is an entity, developed around its own style and color scheme. Peggy's room is made gay with a yellow carpet chintz curtains and bedspread in a bright, flowered pattern, and a hooked throw rug made by Peggy. The bed and table are wicker. The armoire had yellow curtains over its glass doors. An old carnival makeup trunk, redecorated, holds Peggy’s treasures and trash while the shadow box and other wall decorations reflect her interests. The window treatment is unique in that it

gives a short window the appearance of a very long window.

though it was then some 50 years old.

The guest room is developed in pale gold with touches of midnight blue. A chair rail separates the painted lower wall from the papered upper surface which is co-ordinated with the tieback curtains, dust ruffle, and quilted counterpane in an Heirloom 1776 Waverly print. The center of interest here is the family’s most prized antique, a doll’s bureau about 24 inches high, which was a joy of Mrs. Eppelheimer’s childhood,

The master bedroom is donminated by dual beds covered with one huge greenflowered bedspread. Printed polyester curtains with shirred valance treatment are done in a fabric matching the bedspread. Three walls are painted white; the fouth wall and the alcove are covered with handsome green and gold striped paper.

The den is a family hideaway and working area where Mr. Eppelheimer can relax and watch T.V. from a black and white checked sofa w hile

Mrs. Eppelheimer pursues her favorite hobby or sewing. Any look of gloom inspired by black and white walls decorated with copies of black and white Picasso prints is swept away by a Turkey-red carpet and red pillows on the sofa. In this room, as well as at other places in the house, a visito may see pottery fashioned by Mr. Eppelheimer. Visitors w ill enjoy seeing in this house how renovation and redecoration can transform a “middle-aged" house into a comfortable home that is very much in step with “now .”

Settling into the cozy Early American decor of the dining room is Mrs. Laura Dunham of St. Joseph. Mich. Mrs. Dunham

was visiting with the Eppelheimer’s on the occasion of their elder daughter Sally’s wedding on Saturday, April 6.
