Family-Friendly A-Frame

Tuesday, March 4th, 2008 1,752 views

In this smart example of flexible living, about 1,200 square feet on two floors, there’s space for a small family or single owner.

The volume-ceiling living room has a fireplace surrounded by lower and upper windows. And for even more light, the four skylight are not to be missed.

A family kitchen insures that householding will be easy but not less efficient. On the deck side, sliders lead out to a covered dinning porch.

The spacious owner’s bedroom has all the space needed. Cross ventilation is built in with windows at the front and sliding glass doors out to a private part of the deck.

The bath is compartmentalized with a master door from the bedroom and guest room access from the hall. Upstairs, a balcony loft, overlooking the living room, is a slope-ceiling, flexible space-second bedroom, study or a bunk room for a couple of youngsters.

The bath on one side and walk-in closet (plus attic storage beyond) finish the second floor.
