The Windham County reformer. (Battleboro, Vt.) 1876-1897, 1895-11-15

The new house of Holden and
Martin on Linden street is nearing
completion and in point of archi-
tectural grace. convenience and inn
provements. is about a model. The
design by f. A. Crosby is pure old
colonial and carried out nearly in all de-
tails. The house consists of an up and
down stairs tenement of eight rooms
each. including two bedrooms on the
third floor with closets and halls IN
plenty. The vestibule is built into
the house with finish of antique oak
and indeed every room is finished in
wood with paint only on the dash
boards The hall and the double par
lors are in cherry with cherry mantels
81 inch doors in all the main part
Of the house, and plate glass windows
in front. The dining room with its
oval window is a beauty in birch and
convenient with its roomy china
closet connecting the kitchen, the lat
ter room is in hard pine as is the ca
pacious pantry. while the bedrooms
are in spruce. The two tenements are
nearly duplicates in all these points.
From the bath room is a clothes chute
connecting with the cellar which is
large one and sufficient for laundry
and all else required. The house is
heated by two seperate furnaces and is
all piped for gas, and wired for elect
ric pulls. The fixtures are all old
colonial in design and the five light
chandeliers for the dining.:room with
its imitation candles are particularly
effective. The cold air comes from
separate room in the cellar so that
wind will not effect it. The sexterior
with its 10 foot verandah and its bal
cony and trimmings Is very effective.
The house is to be approached with
concrete walks and within a few days
will be ready for sale or rent.
