The long main roof flows down to form this house’s sheltering front porch, framed by gabled forms on either side.

Inside, a two-story center hall opens on the left and right to formal living and dining rooms. To the rear, the kitchen, breakfast nook, and family room form an open, flowing space that extends the width of the house. A fireplace sits against the far wall of the family room, and French doors open onto a deck overlooking the rear lawn. The attached mudroom wing with a laundry area and powder room offers a convenient rear entrance into the kitchen.

A main staircase with an open balustrade leads up to the second-floor hall which overlooks the entrance below. At one end are two bedrooms – each with its own large closet– and a bathroom. The other end of the hall leads to the master bedroom which features a large walk-in closet and a master bath with dual sinks, an oversize glass shower, and a dormer window overlooking the front lawn.

The classic1-1/2 story Cape form conveys a timeless charm, and the Barnstable offers the convenience of a second mudroom entrance. 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.
