THIS house, traditional in style but thoroughly modern in arrangement, is perfect for the small family that wants maximum living space at minimum cost. The 1,200 square feet of floor space is utilized to the fullest. Living room, dining room and den, separated by only a suggestion of partitions, can be treated as one huge room or as three independent units, depending on the choice and placement of the furnishings. The open effect created by this arrangement gives an air of spaciousness seldom found in houses of this size and makes it no problem to entertain quite a number of people.
The living room features a picture window across the front and a fireplace on the opposite side. End windows in both den and dining room give excellent cross-ventilation through the entire front of the house. You will notice, however, that there is ample space in both end rooms for large pieces of wall furniture.
The den may be treated as a part of the living room itself, as a library or music room, or, equipped with a studio couch, it can even be pressed into service as sleeping quarters for guests.
The kitchen is located directly behind the dining room and back of it is a good-size breakfast room, opening into the service yard.
