Hartford's layout works for a variety of situations

The two-story Hartford (334-130) combines elegance with livability in a floor design that is spacious and functional. With the master suite on the lower floor and the rest of the sleeping area on the upper floor, the Hartford is ideal for a family with school age children. This plan will also work well for empty nesters with grown children returning often to visit. The top floor can be sealed off when not in use.

The covered front porch frames an attractive brick and glass entryway. With a barrel vault, open to the second floor, light streams in to enhance the spacious feeling.

To the left of the entry, a vaulted swing room can serve as a small den, library or sewing room. Optional doors provide privacy, or leave them off for a more open effect.

The large master suite is situated for maximum privacy. A skylight brightens the sleeping area and a huge walk-in closet provides plenty of space for your wardrobe. A separate vanity sits just outside the private bathroom. The covered back deck, ideal for a hot tub, can be easily accessed.

The walk-through kitchen is great for a family on the go. A central cooktop and eating bar lets you prepare and serve food with a minimum of bother. The skylit nook brightens any meal. Other kitchen features include pantry, double ovens and raised dishwasher.

The large, vaulted family room is the hub of this home. Here family and friends can bask in the warmth of the corner fireplace while watching television or discussing the events of the day. The first floor also includes another full bath and a utility room with pull-down ironing board and laundry chute.

The top floor has three modest bedrooms, each with closet space and a large window. Extra storage room is in the hallway, along with a full bathroom.

The two-car garage has a shop/storage area with built-in workbench.
