The hip root of this house is built
with wide cornices having the ends Of
the rafters exposed. The slope of the
roof is broken, just above the cornices,
into a more gentle slope, which gives
the roof an appearance Of gracefulness.
The dormer roof is treated in the same
way as the main roof. All of the dou-
BILE hung windows have a plain lower
sash and the upper sash is broken up
into a large number of small square
lights. The effect is artistic and thor
oughly In keeping with other details of
exterior design. The front entrance
consists of a simple but solidly built
door stained in conformity with the
rough siding, having a narrow window
on each side. This entrance with the
porch-terrace are very effective in en-
phasizing the rustic aspect of the
house.
The house has a basement under all
parts except the porch. Grade windows
are Of sufficient size and in sufficient
number to make this a useful part of
the house. Separate rooms are pro-
vided for the heating plant, the laun-

built for the fuel.
