Seven-Room Cement Stucco Cottage.
Seven-Room Cement Stucco
Cottage
It is the people who live in a house that make the true atmosphere
of a home, and give the place that personal touch of human interest
and hospitality without which even the most ornate residence is
an empty shell. And yet there is something of supreme value in
the very design of the house itself, for it should form a fitting
and dignified environment for its occupants.
The design here shown has all the requirements of a true home for
a moderate-size family. It would look well in spacious grounds,
but is adapted to a narrow lot. The exterior finish is in cement
plaster, which may be delicately tinted, if desired, and relieved
by harmonious color contrast in the wood trim. The size and layout
of the rooms are very clearly shown in the diagrams.
The entire front of the house is given up to a large living room,
and a den with fireplace, the living room being entered from the
vestibule opening off the porch. A central hallway, at rear of
living room, connects it directly with kitchen and beamed-ceiling
dining room. From it, also, stairs lead to basement and second
floor, on which bathroom is centrally located off the hall and
withineasy reach of the two front bedrooms, rooms are well lighted,
and each has as well as the rear one. All the bed- a large closet.
