If you would like a modest sized house but still want it to ramble over your suburban lands you may like this one, which is 82 feet overall, yet has a living area with a maximum depth of 22 feet, is 60 feet long and covers 1,220 square feet.
It is a comfortable three-bedroom plan with good closets and kitchen cabinets. There is no basement and the house is built on a concrete slab with a 4-foot strip along garage wall for laundry. Furnace room is in connection with fireplace chimney with access to it from outside. Kitchen is convenient to garage, and is laid out in a practical manner with built-in corner dinette.
It is a good house for those who want only one bath and rooms of just comfortable proportions. Anyone wanting a onecar garage can cut 6 to 8 feet off this one. A low gable roof creates a good entrance shelter with trellis enclosing two doors. All exterior walls are natural, vertical redwood siding.
The sketch at right pictures a small yet practically arranged den-bedroom. There are cabinets along the end wall and above them are five shutters with wallpaper mural panels. Two of them cover a pair of casement windows. The desk is continuous with the cabinets, the end one forming a headboard for the Hollywood bed.
Below is the living room with its window wall and corresponding door at dining end of room. Living room windows are high along the front wall. A shallow ledge above the fireplace has a mirrored recess over it.
