HERE is a house that the fun-loving family will take to its heart. The wide-open spaces of the king-sized front room—a combination living-dining room and den — are the answer to a party-giver's prayer. Except for the coat closet, there is not even a suggestion of a partition to get in the way when you are entertaining a crowd. You will especially appreciate this feature if you are active in the affairs of a church or club to which you frequently open your home.
Closets in the hall take care of bedding and out-of-season clothing, while there is storage space in the bathroom for linen and laundry. In addition to the usual fixtures, the bathroom has a convenient built-in lavatory and dressing table with a large mirror above. The kitchen has a step-saving arrangement of the work space and a breakfast area at one end.
A handy utility room is connected with the kitchen by a breezeway, which provides a covered passage to the car port.
Besides providing ample space for entertaining and everyday living, this plan offers almost unlimited possibilities for originality in interior decoration.
The hall adjacent to the living area insures privacy in the bedrooms and provides access to the bathroom, kitchen and breakfast room. The bedrooms have plenty of closet space, and their doors and windows are arranged to allow cross ventilation.
