Story-and-a-Half House Design
Story-and-a-Half House Design 2003L
Where comfortable living rooms are wanted with three small bed
rooms and a bath room above, this design offers many advantages.
In the first place, it is inexpensive to build, also when finished
it looks neat and at-tractive.
The porch is roomy, which makes a pleasing entrance approach and
the bay windows in the parlor and dining room help the architectural
effect. It is a convenient house for a small family, easily heated
and is generally very satisfactory.
This is the style house that suits a farmer who retires to town
to livewhen he commences to feel the bur-den of farm management
late in life. Usually the farm women folks prefer to do their own
work. They do not understand the management of town help and they
don't want to. They want a neat, little, compact house, that they
can take care of themselves. They want a small, warm-air furnace
under the dining room, so that the whole house may be heated with
one fire. In all probability, they would run a partition across
the cellar to make a cold storage room for fruit and vegetables.
This plan has worked well a great many times. It gives the farmer
and his family an opportunity to live in town very much as they
were accustomed to live on the farm.
