Inviting Courtyard Entry<\/p>\n
This design employs the concept of an entry courtyard with the front door tucked out of view from the street. With this kind of arrangement a person can really feel the inviting yet sheltered nature of the plan. Once inside you are treated to a view of the open curved stairway leading to the lower living area. The ceiling in the living room rises to 12\u2019-7\u201d and is emphasized even more by the placement of an impressive colonnade. This is quite a nice design contrast to the sheltered entry. The living room shares a double-sided fireplace with the kitchen breakfast and hearth room areas (see illustration). This arrangement is one of our favorites. The kitchen is where most people gather and to have three different conversation zones is a wonderful feature when entertaining guests. Notice how the breakfast nook is placed in a gazebo type layout. With all the natural light pouring in from five sides this room should certainly wake you up in the morning. Please note that bedroom #2 can easily double as a home office to accommodate those who work from home. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
