For starters, note the welcoming front porch. Swing open the front door, and you will get an eyeful of drama. Floors downstairs are wide-plank pine. Ceilings are ten feet high. Baseboards are eight inches tall.
All interior doors are solid wood, and the house is built with wood windows.
The kitchen is part cooking center and part entertaining area. Guests can pull up a chair at the island work station while you put on a cooking demonstration if you like. There are long stretches of tiled counter surface where you can chop ingredients, roll out cookie dough or cut fresh flowers. Take a look at the floorplan on page two and note how the room in the front corner could be used as a dining room. Three bedrooms are upstairs, along with an ingenious space called an office niche.
