A good-sized two-story house and big attic house.

A good-sized two-story house and big attic house.
Size on ground, 38 feet by 28 feet. Design No. 6576L.
Large Two-Story House
For a family of four or more per-sons, a large two-story house
like this with a good attic is a great comfort. In this plan, there
are five rooms down-stairs, besides a good-sized reception hall,
and there are four good-sized bed-rooms upstairs, besides the bathroom,
plenty of clothes closets and a dressing-room that comes in very
handy for a child's cot when the little folks are young enough
to need the mother's care at night.
There is a very attractive stairway in this plan that looks well
from the reception hall, and it is convenient of access from the
front part of the house or the kitchen ; a two-way combination
; an invention that has been utilized to advantage to save space
and steps. Steps enough are required in doing the housework in
a house as big as this, without wasting time and labor hunting
for a way to get up or down stairs.
The way to the cellar is under the center part of this stairway,
and the cellar landing is made where it is convenient to the heating
apparatus. Continuing up is the stairway to the attic,directly
over the main stair, which is another economy. Architects worked
a good many years to build this stair, but success has been reached,
and we now have the acme of economy and convenience without sacrificing
appearance.
A large two-story house like this requires an imposing veranda
and balcony, which have been well worked out in this design. It
makes a finish to the front of the house and adds a great deal
to the value of the property. The library in this plan is the office
for the man of the house and a study for children of school age
and those of more mature years. This makes a cosy family room,
where the "kids" and the parents are likely to spend
winter evenings enjoying a pleasant open grate fire.
