IF YOU want to get the utmost in convenience and livability from your construction dollar, this little house has everything you could desire. Features which you might expect to find only in a larger house are cleverly arranged in an area slightly over 1,000 square feet—a popular size for the small budget.
The unusually large front porch provides a well-protected and inviting entrance, and it also lends the house a distinction not usually achieved by other homes in this price range. The floor plan is well laid out, the traffic pattern is good, and space is used with maximum effectiveness.
Each room has cross-ventilation; yet, in spite of the fact that the house has twelve large windows, there is sufficient wall space for good furniture arrangement. Both bedrooms have ample closet space; the central hall has an additional storage closet. The generous-sized living room has the dining alcove favored by so many prospective homeowners. The kitchen has quick access to all areas of the house through the central hall. The fact that the bath adjoins it reduces plumbing installation costs.
One of the best features of this plan is its ability to grow with the family. It can easily be expanded to include three bedrooms. Also, a garage with an attached breezeway may be added.
