Love the kitchen!!!!
Blackboard paint is neat. House listed today.
Neat house, but looking at the floor plan made me curious. Do you really have to go through one bedroom to get from the kitchen to the dining room? I know these long narrow houses go through room to room but that seems an odd arrangement.
Darla
Gorgeous!
Gorgeous!
Very cute. I think we would call that a railroad house in OKC, or something like that (where the rooms join up in one line).
@Darla--Yes! This is a shotgun house. Some have side halls, but the lot on this house is too narrow to accommodate that!
@Tory--HI!!!!!
@Shelley--I will have to look into the OK version. I love these houses.
@Darla--I meant to add: you can use the rooms in different ways. So if Frugal Son were to have such a house, he might rent the front room to a friend and use the back room himself. That way, each would have an entrance to a bedroom, and the center would be a common space.
I looked this up
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railroad_apartment
and perhaps this is a shotgun house as someone has mentioned. Railroad houses have a hallway. So I've learned something new!
