Illusions of SpaceAngled roof lines, vertical board siding, a clerestory gable over the foyer and a long entry walkway create an exterior strikingly different from that of most ranch-style homes. The exterior details also offer the illusion of a large dwelling, even though the house plan is economically sized. Only 43-feet wide, the house fits nicely on a narrow lot. A sense of spaciousness is achieved by means of vaulted ceilings in the sunken living room, the dining area and the skylit kitchen. Notice the fireplace and window wall in the living room and the diagonally placed breakfast counter in the kitchen. Sliding doors lead from the dining room to the rear porch or deck. The bedroom wing houses two secondary bedrooms, a hall bath and the master suite with its long linear closet, dressing area and private bath. The washer and dryer are placed in a convenient closet in the hall. Foundation: crawl space. | |
