HERE is a plan that’s really out of the ordinary, with its distinctive exterior of redwood plywood siding, its extensive window area and its exceptionally convenient room arrangement. Wide eaves add to the attractiveness of the house, while a car port shelters the outside entrance and provides storage space for tools.
You enter the house through a foyer with a handy coat closet. From the foyer you can reach any part of the house without crossing other areas. The spacious living-dining room overlooking the garden offers countless possibilities for conversational groupings with its fireplace and picture windows. Since these window walls are at the back of the house, neighbors and passers-by can’t invade your privacy.
The bedroom wing is well separated from the rest of the house and has ample closet space. The compact kitchen is U-shaped, and the breakfast room has a large built-in china cabinet. Three windows make this area bright and cheerful.
