The home of W. W. Nichols, Esq., at 
Rochester, N. Y., is a typical American 
suburb type of architecture showing in¬ 
fluences of English cottage design. It is 
executed in stucco, with half-timber in 
the hall and living rooms 
The first floor plan shows a livable dis¬ 
position of rooms. The entrance is on 
the side. Although open, the plan pro¬ 
vides interesting details, such as the liv¬ 
ing room fireplace corner, a tiled porch 
and the compact service quarters 
Viewed from the garden the house shows 
picturesque overhanging eaves, a solid 
chimney stack, window boxes in the 
porch roof off the master bedroom, and 
the porch, which is a continuation of 
the half-timber bay of the living room
