By Robert J. Lewis
Reel Estate Editor Of The Sfor

With warmer weather due
soon. the idea of spending some
time outside Washington at
nearby bay and river places and
resorts is bound to have a new
appeal to many families.
Already a surprising number
of Washingtonians have estab-
lished pattern of summer life
punctuated by week ends in
their own cottages.
This weekend life is in knife
sharp contrast to the white COL
lar routine of the Nations
Capital. A pair of faded dun
gareeS and an old shirt or
sWeater-or a sun suit or slacks
is the informal badge of care
free leisure at most weekend
spots.
All the way from Annapolis
to Point Lookout on the Chesa-
peake, and from Marshall Hall
to Reedsville on the Potomac,
you find these weekend colo
nies. And, of course, some fami-
lies do cross the bay to the
Eastern Shore every week end in
the summertime OF even travel
regularly to the Delaware,
Maryland and Virginia ocean
shore itself.
Weekend cottages and cabins
range all the way in size from
piano-boX ramblers to the more
posh establishments graced by
private swimming pools and
Doric columns.
But the basic purpose behind
Evening star., 1951-03-31

Glass in the walls was used ex-
tensively. Windows are of the
steel easement type, having re-
movable screens. All windows
can be cleaned from inside the
house without using a ladder.
Interior walls are paneled in
Western cedar.
In the ceiling, except in kitchen
and bathroom. planks and
beams are left exposed and
stained lightly to blend with
the paneling. Ceilings were
placed in the bathroom and
kitchen for the sake of better
scale in these small rooms and
to create closet space above that
is accessible from a hall.
A considerable number of
built-in items, including draw
ers, bookcases. shelves, dressing
table. seats. closets and ironing
board, were a part of the house
design.
The house contains a living
room and bedroom, separated by
a free-standing brick fireplace;
a dining alcove, a large porch,
kitchen and bath on the main
floor. plus partly finished living
room. bedroom, bath and stor-
age room on lower, floor.

Architect Designed Weekend House for Use Oveooks Bay

the whole gamut of accommoda-
tions is the desire to escape
from the enforced routine of
winter to an easily accessible,
play-spangled region of water
and sun, fish and fun.
To take advantage of this
kind of outdoor summer life,
Mr.. and Mrs. Ernest L. Geeslin
built the house shown on this
page.
Mr.. and Mrs. Geeslin chose a
lot at Scientists Cliffs, a COM
munity on the Chesapeake Bay
not far from Prince Frederick,
Md. They had rented a cottage
there over period of years.
and had definite ideas about
what they wanted in the way
of a weekend house.
The designer, Francis D.
Lethbridge of the firm of Keyes,
Smith, Satterlee & Lethbridge,
said his clients wanted a house
of contemporary design that
would be suitable for year.
