Thin t shown In De- ti gn HW11 for The House o( the Week. Here Is bif seven -room house planned (or comfortable family living. It If designed to fit modest sited lot. 11 you wanted to build the same number of the . same sited rooms with a similar two-car garage In one-story ranch style layout, you would reed twice as much land, twice as much room and (0 per cent more louncation work. This bouse covers only 1.287 square feet of land, including its garage wing. Such an area is merely that used by almost mint mum sited ranch nouses. Yet her you have almost 1.000 square feet of livable floor space on two floors, not counting the garage floor. You could fit HW-1I nicely on a SO by 100-foot corner lot. or on about 7$ feet of frontage else where, depending on local toning rules for space between neigh bors. In any case, generous space would be left lor lawn and land scaping. THE BASIC advantage of two story homes are frequently over looked amid the novelties of ranch houses and split-levels. The con omiea of construction, land re quirement and operation, includ ing heating, are readily apparent Also, well-located lots often am not large enough for adequate rambling one-story layouts. You art not compelled to move to a remote location to have a two- story house. So in many cases the two-story house can offer the ad ded advantage of convenience. Its sits msy be near business centers, schools and churches an ln-town location with benefits of estab lished municipal services, such as police and fire protection, paved streets, sidewalks and sewers. Many women prefer sleeping rooms removed from the ground floor. This affords privacy from within and without.- Strangers ca tering the bouse do not look into bedrooms. But the full flight of stairs needed in a two-story house can be an objection. In this plan that objection is removed .by breaking the stairs with a land in at the level of the large recre ation room ever the garage. This gives the bouse a split-level fea ture without torturing Its facade. The eiterior presents dig nified appearancea large sub stantial house that looks as If it belongs In an established neigh borhood. Hand split shakes. In dicated in the drawing, would cre ate especially attractive shswod lines on the front of the house. Or conventional clapboard siding could be used for some economy. HERMAN H.
