House & Garden 
The difference in levels adds to the interest of the house. At 
one end is a living room. The porch has a brick border with a 
field of random, broken tile—the wastage from a floor job. The 
dining room is set in the rear of the house to catch the view. 
A small kitchen and its closets and porch complete this floor 
The house is favored by a charming location—the brow of 
a hill commanding a view across a wide valley. Tall trees 
shade the site. Heavy, hand-split cypress shingles painted 
white cover the walls 
A Colonial at- 
mosphere is 
maintained in¬ 
side the house. 
On the landing — 
usually a bleak 
spot—are built- 
in bookshelves
