Kirby Farm's design made to fit unusual lots

Homes designed for narrow lots that have a quality appearance to them are always in demand. The new housing projects have many lots that need that special home to fit. The Kirby Farm (D8093) has 1,212 square feet and is nearly square in shape. It has distinctive rooflines that provide character to the front this great starter home.

The entry has a covered porch with a transom overhead. Inside to the right side is a closet, while the stairs for the unfinished basement is on the left. Straight ahead is the large great room with a fireplace covering nearly half of the back wall. Windows with transoms overhead decorate the balance of the area. In a front corner is a bookshelf, ideal for having a favorite book ready to read at a moment's notice.

To the right of the great room is a large nook. This eating area is enhanced with large windows bathing the room in light. For convenience, a door to the back yard has been inserted at the rear of the nook. The kitchen for the Kirby Farm is "C" shaped with an eating bar facing the nook. A corner sink is adjacent to the eating bar and a pantry is across the walkway.

At the end of the kitchen is a door leading to the utility room. An extra storage closet has been added to the utility. Another door opening into the two-car garage makes bringing in groceries or kids easier. An extra jog in the garage provides a possibility of storage or a workbench for the weekend do-it- yourselfer.

The Kirby Farm has two bedrooms, the master suite in the left rear area, and the secondary bedroom (ideal as a kid's room or nursery) in the left front. A full bath is located between the two bedrooms, along with a linen closet in the hall. This is easily accessible from the rest of the home through an arched doorway.

The master suite has a large walk-in closet with twin sinks directly across the walkway. This is ideal for getting ready for work in the mornings. There is an oversized shower conveniently located beside the closet. Entry into this suite passes through an arched doorway, and over the basement stairwell.
