THIS contemporary version of the Cape Cod cottage incorporates the advantages of modern planning while retaining the dignified simplicity to which the traditional version owes its charm. The family selecting this plan should never feel cramped for living space, for the rooms are larger than those of the average five-room house, and there is an abundance of closets.
Light and ventilation are well taken care of by a generous number of large windows (each of the bedrooms has three exposures) carefully placed to leave plenty of room for good furniture arrangement. A recessed entrance and a breezeway to the garage provide protection from inclement weather.
The foyer opens into both the living room and the dining-kitchen area, and the central hall connects all rooms. The bathroom is centrally located, the kitchen compactly arranged. The dining area is as convenient as the customary breakfast room, yet it is large enough for formal dining."
