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.

This lively recreation home soars high, using board and batten siding and smart roof slopes. There’s true visual appeal with the recessed entry under the charming chalet type balcony. The saving are smart too.
The vaulted ceilinged dining/living area is highlighted by a window wing on each side. The fireplace makes a welcoming asset as well as a divider. Opposite is the wide bay with sliding glass door to the deck.
For easy house holding, there is a fully equpped U-shaped kitchen. The hall from the entry gives acces to all areas, very welcoming in a home that is planned in a 32′ square.
At the right side the bedroom wing has two similarly sized bedroom, a big closet for each and a hall bath between. The utility closet accomodates heater and water heater in an easily accessible location.
A stair leads to the loft over-looking the soaring living/dining area. This is a family pleaser: sitting area for adults or sleeping “dorm” for younger guests.
