A GROUP 
oj SMALL 
HOUSES 
For a small fam¬ 
ily, where a 
maximum of liv¬ 
able rooms is de¬ 
sired, the Dutch 
Colonial design 
is suitable. This 
example is the 
home of Gordon 
Stewart, Beech- 
hur s t, L. I.

A simple disposi¬ 
tion of rooms on 
the first floor 
makes for com¬ 
fort ab l e in¬ 
teriors. The ar¬ 
bor at one end 
is a pleasant de¬ 
tail. It balances 
the living porch 
Three b e d - 
chambers and a 
bath, with a 
plentitude of 
closets, give a 
roomy second 
floor. All rooms 
are well lighted, 
and the plan is 
simple 
The house is ex¬ 
ecuted in dark 
red Colonial 
brick, clapboard 
and with a shin¬ 
gle roof. A wide 
overhang of the 
roof gives pro¬ 
tection to front 
and back facades
