Traditional touches like the deep main-floor veranda, wide overhang and second-storey porch lend this Craftsman-style two-storey home plenty of character. Designed especially for a narrow lot, the plans include three bedrooms as well as a formal dining room, living room and great room. The great room, definitely designed with family time in mind, features a built-in fireplace and access through french doors to a patio. Open to the great room is the kitchen, where a large work island, raised eating bar and generous walk-in pantry will ensure convenience and comfort for the cook. To the left of the compact foyer is the more formal living room, with a trio of large windows overlooking the shady veranda. A two-sided fireplace separates this room from the dining room, with its optional built-in buffet. A half-wall and archways divide the dining room from a corridor, where a powder room is tucked in beside the staircase. Upstairs, the master suite enjoys access to a covered porch that looks out on the back garden. The roomy walk-in closet will provide ample space, even for a couple of clothing collectors. In the ensuite are a soaker tub with a tiled surround, a glass shower stall and a double vanity. Light will fill the room through large windows. The second and third bedrooms, overlooking the front garden, share a bathroom fitted with a towel cupboard. The laundry room and linen closet are conveniently placed nearby. Outside, wood shingles, siding and detailing; spindle railings; square pilasters; and partly mullioned windows contribute to the home’s air of old-fashioned elegance. The house is 25 feet wide and 50 feet, six inches deep, for a total of 2,030 square feet of living space, not including the unfinished basement included in the plans.
