A GROUP OF THREE HOUSES 
In order to secure com¬ 
plete privacy the garden 
is located in the rear of 
the house. It has been 
made an important fea¬ 
ture, with its planting of 
evergreens and beds of 
herbaceous flowers and 
charming little arbor gates 
On the second floor are 
found four bed chambers 
and two baths with a 
plentitudc of closets, 
and, in the wing over 
the kitchen, two maids' 
rooms, a bath and the 
service stairs. The at¬ 
tic is reached conveniently 
The home of Joseph 
Santley, Great Neck, L. 
I., is a Colonial clap¬ 
board house of comfort¬ 
able proportions, as is 
attested by the wide ve¬ 
randa and the range of 
dormers. The chimneys 
are of whitewashed brick 
The number and size of 
the rooms in proportion 
to the size of the house 
are unusual. This has 
been made possible by 
omitting the hall and 
putting the stairway in 
a minimum of space.
