Story and Half House Is Popular
Outside Chimney Among Features
THE HOME FOR this week is of a style that has always been| popular with the American people. It is the so-called story and a half house with two bedrooms down and the possibility of two
more bedrooms upstairs. There are probably thousands of only slightly different plans for this style of home, but this one is extremely good looking and compactly planned. The architect has designed the exterior to be of brick veneer but it would look very attractive if] built of wood siding. » "= THE OVERHANGING roof] and built up planting box and] outside chimney are the features) that makes this little home stand! out. The interior is well planned, too. The entrance hall and coat closet are nice features to have especially if you have children. The long living room with natural; fireplace make this a homey part of the house. = - » THE DOWNSTAIRS bedrooms both have cross ventilation with] the bath between and notice there are seven closets in this area. Sliding doors installed on these closets would save the space occupied by the swing of a hinged! door. |
