Classic Home 017
|
Exterior overview of Classic Home 017, designed by Clark & Walcott, Architects.
"Here is a small house with real architectural merit. The fine chimney, the roof, the gabled porch, the proportion of height to length and breadth, and the fenestration combine into a very pleasing whole. The large square porch forms a complete protection for the entrance, which leads directly into the ample living room. A closet for a disappearing bed practically makes of the living room another bedroom when occasion demands. A short hall leads to the dining room and kitchen, and it connects the bedroom with the bath. Exterior is of face brick."
From 500 Small Houses of the Twenties, complied by Henry Atterbury Smith, from "The Books of a Thousand Homes," copyright 1923. The 1990 edition is published by Dover Publications, ISBN 0-486-26300-2.
