A GROUP OF 
FOUR HOUSES 
Different Types for 
Different Localities 
An interesting detail of the Birdsall 
bungalow is the connection of house 
and garage. The plan responds to 
the demands of a deep, narrow lot. 
Heacock & Hokanson, architects 
For a site that is flat the bungalow is a logical choice. It especially lends itself to summer 
living. An example is found in the summer home of Amos Birdsall, Jr., at Toms River, 
N. J. The walls are white stucco over frame. The wood trim is stained a reddish brown 
and the roof a light brown

An unusual variation of Dutch Colonial, suitable for the suburbs, is found in the 
home of Donald Folsom at Sharon Hill, Pa. White walls and trim with blinds 
painted bottle green give it a cheerful aspect. The weathered shingle roof is 
broken by a central chimney. Folsom & Sjanton, architects 
By recessing the fire¬ 
place and projecting the 
bay window directly 
opposite, the living 
room has been given 
greater width. A sim¬ 
ilar expedient has been 
used in the dining room 
where buffet and china 
closet occupy niches 
On the upper floor not 
an inch of space has 
been wasted. The 
owner’s room is com¬ 
modious, with light on 
three sides. Each of 
the bedrooms has excel¬ 
lent wall spaces for the 
large pieces of furniture
