Broad windows radiate a light and open feeling throughout the house. The roof line sweeps out all around as a shield against sun and snow.On the garden side, the living room, family room, kitchen and master bedroom line up to enjoy the colorful view. The street side is designed for maximum privacy; an entry court is tucked between the door and the storage wall.
The living room is almost doubled in warm weather by the spacious patio. Facing the house long side to the street creates all this usable space. Center door leads to kitchen and family room at the left, living room at the right. Privacy from the front-door neighbors is assured with the windowless bedroom wall on one side, the carport on the other.
Good proportions of this living room make for wonderful family living - and no need for expensive furniture to fill up dead corners. Big windows face rear yard, which provides a fine private view. Entrances from the front hall and rear yard are convenient. Furniture arrangement is simpler, too, when there's no through traffic.
The fireplace serves as the end wall of the room; there's space for a big sofa facing the fire and the view. Kitchen is just where it should be for maximum convenience. For this informal area, a fiber rug and plastic table and chairs shrug off family rumpus. Fireplace conceal any muss from the living room.
