Times-Bulletin, Von Wert, Saturday, May 19, 1973 5 Livability And Clean Design By W.D. FARMER Comfortable split level plan offers good basic floor plan arrangement plus attractive Mediterranean style. All floor space is effectively utilized. There are three bedrooms on the upper level, all including more than adequate closet space. There are two full baths, one being private to the master bedroom, the other servicing the two remaining bedrooms and also serving as guest bath Extra linen storage is centrally located from hall.

The living room and dining room are in line but separate from each other. The foyer leads to family room, living and dining rooms or to upper level, without traveling through another room. The family room is extra large with fireplace and sliding glass doors to rear. The kitchen is, well arranged and includes surplus cabinet space and built-ins, of course. There is a separate breakfast room and special accommodations for utilities.

There is a third full bath on the lower level, along with large fourth bedroom and very large play room. Wood Enriches COVE RED WALK 4 MAIN SUPPER LEVEL The exterior style is Mediterranean. Brick arches at portico and wrought iron simulated balconies, combined with horizontal siding on cantilevered upper level and the rambling effect of gable roof, all give this plan the exciting new style. There are 1,717 square feet on the main and upper level with 796 square feet of finished rooms on lower level. Room sizes shown are clear inside dimensions.

The plan number is 749 For further information write D. Farmer, 0. Box 49463, Atlanta, Ga. 30329. Bath There's no rule against walls of solid western wood the kitchen and bathroom Sealed and lightly stained to suit individual taste, they add beauty that's hard to match.

Taking a tip from the centuries-old sauna tradition, a bathroom lined in nch-hued western cedar will have a warm feeling missing with gleaming white finishes. 1 -j Kitchen walls, even around work areas, are easy to wipe clean when paneled with western hemlock, fir or pine boards. New Tub Design With eight out of 10 persons suffering back trouble sometime in their lives, a new change in bathtub design is called the "lumbar curve." Designed into the back of the bathtub, the raised slope lends support to the lower back of the bather. 21 Building Permits Are Issued By City The City of Van Wert issued 21 building permits during the past two- week period.

Wood framing's strength has been tested by hurricanes and earthquakes, and as a natural insulator wood is rated six times as effective as brick, 15 times over concrete, 1.000 times more than aluminum. University-conducted fuel consumption tests showed that in two identical houses, one built with wood used 26.2 per cent less fuel than one built of masonry.

This is vitally important in days of growing fuel shortages. Ideas For House Buyers, Builders With wood, a new or remodeled home can be fashioned to reflect any lifestyle, through bold, modern design or traditional solidarity.
