DescriptionPlans for a two and one-half story house in the "farm house" style featuring a gable roof with overhanging eaves, a large attic dormer with tri-part window, covered front and rear porches, as well as second floor rear balcony.
Windows on the house are primarily louvered double-hung sash windows in either the eight-over-eight, eight-over-one, six-over-one, or four-over-one configuration.
Seven drawings are included in the set: front, rear, south and north elevations, as well as cellar, first floor, and second floor plans. The cellar plans include a coal room, heater, and cold room. First floor plans include a rear porch, kitchen, pantry, dining room, living room, entry hall with stair, and front porch. Second floor plans include four chambers (bedrooms), a bath, hall, and balcony.
