For anything but a big, expensive home, the plan of this smart split-level certainly offers a lot of living. There are three bedrooms and two baths, but so many families today need that important fourth bedroom and the plan shows a plus feature with a fourth bedroom on an expansion floor above the living room side with a full bathroom as well. This fourth bedroom is optional and can be finished at a later date, but many families with growing youngsters will welcome it at once to furnish a bedroom-study suite for a grown-up youngster to give privacy and a feeling of an apartment at home. There are two huge closets and access to eaves storage for tidy housekeeping by any occupant. The three bedrooms on the sleeping level, (arranged so that they are out of view from the living room) combine sleeping comfort, good wall space and excellent closet area. There are two closets (one is a walk-in) in the master bedroom, a convenient stall shower bathroom and a handsome picture window looking out over the back gardens or terrace. There are two linen closets on the main bedroom level and each of the bedrooms has specially capacious closets plus an extra in the bedroom hall, a total of 11 closets including the hall coat closet and the pantry in the kitchen. A delightful flagstone porch goes along the front of the house at the living room side and the living room picture window, done in small panes in the Colonial style, looks out on this lovely spot with its arches and columns. In the living room there is a stunning stone fireplace at one end and the front window view has a lovely effect. Through an arch at the back, a bright, hospitable dining room can be seen. The kitchen enjoys the spacious planning of the rest of the house. A stairway down to the service basement is placed right near the kitchen, but most convenient to the front hall, too. On the lower level is a two-car garage, laundry and heater room as well as a recreation play room that can be entered from the back garden.
