In doiiiK this, however, It was
aeceHHary to raise the houm some
what iilMher off the ground than
usual. In order to overcome tills
a small terrace was provided for
acrosH the entire front. The small
sloop has been Hltuhily protected
in order to provide for a vestibule
and the stairway landing and Mill
have room for an arched opening
bt tween the hall and dining room,
similar to Hint of th" hall and liv

Interesting features In this plan
are the passage from the kitchen

room. French doors also lead
