Floor areas: Superstructure, main house, 915 square feet; with storage
addition 1,120 square feet. Cellar, 115 square feet. Porches, 130
square feet.
This house is similar in many respects to the first unit of 6522 (p. 26),
but is enlarged to provide for the bathroom. A shallow root cellar with
room above is added at the rear of the house to provide extra storage if
needed in localities where a cellar is not practicable. As in the case of
plan 6522, two more bedrooms may be added to the left side of the house
by taking space from the rear bedroom for a hallway.
[Illustration: FLOOR PLAN]
The house is planned to be heated by a jacketed heater in the workroom
with a cold-air return duct under the floor and cold-air registers in the
living room and bedrooms. This arrangement will keep all handling of coal
and ashes out of the living parts of the house.
