The covered entry porch with balcony and double-windowed dormer above
becomes the focus in this front elevation. Inside, a two-story center
hall opens into a living room/den on the left. To the right, an open,
flowing space contains the dining room, family room, breakfast nook,
and kitchen. The family-room ceiling rises to two stories with a fireplace
rising through the center of the house. On the far wall, French doors
open onto a deck overlooking the rear lawn. Past a powder room, a short
hallway leads to the master suite, which features two walk-in closets,
a view of the rear lawn, and a master bath with glass shower, platform
tub, and dual vanities. A second entrance from the garage takes you
into the house past a laundry area and a coat closet.
A main staircase with open balustrade leads up to a second floor hall
open on one side to the family room and on the other to the hall below
with a dormer window opening onto the balcony. The hall provides access
to a generous bathroom and two bedrooms, each with a dormer-window view
of the front lawn.
The classic 1-1/2 story Cape form conveys a timeless charm, and the
Ashland offers a contemporary, open living area with a ground floor
master suite. Plans for this house have been carefully drawn and include
authentic details. The layout combines a smooth flow and an efficient
use of space. All of the rooms have large windows and will accommodate
optimal furniture arrangements.
