This charming house may look like something straight out of a storybook, but it has been designed with an eye toward modern living, and is as practical as can be! The exterior, of course, is the first thing you notice - and everybody else will, too. It combines quaint leaded-windows, clapboard, fieldstone and board siding with straight and simple lines accented by an unusual double chimney. This house has three handy entrances: one from the sheltered flagstone porch, another from the attached two-car garage through the breezeway and into the dining room, and a third at the rear leading to the family dinette and basement stairs. All three bedrooms, which open off the center hall, are models of spacious convenience. One bed- room has double windows at the front and a triple closet with sliding doors; another bedroom has windows on two sides and a big double closet; the master bedroom has three windows, a triple closet with sliding doors and a private bath with an enclosed shower. Clever planning gives the family bath a dual role, with a lavatory accessible from the rear entry and a connecting unit with a tub and a double vanity sink opening on the center hall. There is a convenient linen closet in the center hall, and an equally convenient all-purpose storage closet near the rear entry. At the front of the house is the living room, which has a big window facing the front and a fireplace with a full width hearth. Across the rear of the house there is a family room-dinette space, the kitchen with room for laundry equipment and every modern kitchen appliance, and a formal dining room which opens on the breezeway-barbeque area. Down in the basement you can plan for a walk-in cedar storage closet, a recreation room with bar and games closet, and a laundry, sewing or hobby room.
