BH&G Five Star Home #1904

With its trim looks and conventional lines this little house would fit into any neighborhood. As shown here, it has a cedar shake roof, brown-stained clapboard siding. The design would lend itself to a number of siding combinations. 

Architect Dysland cut construction costs of this Five Star home in three ways : The major part of the house is a simple rectangle the most economical shape to build ; roofs are kept simple every extra ridge or valley in a roof costs more; and because standard lengths of lumber can be used there is little wastage of material. To you these savings mean more house for less money. While this obviously is not a large house, its livability is derived from careful arrangement of rooms and small space devoted to hallways.
