Mallory 30-576

Gracefully tapered columns seated on rustic stone veneer bases give a Craftsman look to the Mallory, as do the multi-paned windows and traditional front porch.  This three-bedroom, 21/2 bath home has a fairly narrow footprint and is equally suitable for construction as a vacation retreat, or a year-round residence. 
Porch railings add nostalgic charm while providing a little privacy for summertime relaxation on a porch swing, wicker chairs, or whatever suits.  Inside, a coat closet fits neatly into the alcove behind the front door, and a stairway runs up the right wall. 
On the left, the foyer opens into a large gathering space that spans the entire breadth of the house, front to back.  The living room section has a wide street-facing window, with a view across the covered porch.  At center is the dining room, expanded by a wide window bay that could house a window seat.
A long eating bar rims the boundary of kitchen and living room.  Cabinetry fills the space above the wide, waist-to-hat-level open area that allows an easy interchange of food and conversation between the spacious, C-shaped kitchen and dining area.  A rear door opens onto a covered patio that could be screened.
 	The utility room, broom closet, powder room and direct garage access are all conveniently close. 
Three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a bonus room and several storage areas are on the Mallory's upper level.  The owners' suite boasts a roomy walk-in closet, dual vanity, and a separately enclosed tub/shower and toilet, plus a towel hutch and a tall stack of enclosed shelves.  Secondary bedrooms share a bathroom, and the bonus room comes complete with a covered deck and exterior stairs.
