Douglas, architect, Dixie Carlton Hotel, Birmingham, for concrete masonry construction, although it is adaptable for frame or brick veneer. The house covers approximately 1,500 square feet area being the usual guide in estimating for single story plans.

The illustration shows the rear garden side of the house, where an outdoor fireplace is provided on the terrace. A basement only large enough for heating plant makes for economy. The plan calls for a minimum lot front of 100 feet, with greater widths giving a better setting. Architect Douglas, who identifies this as his Plan No. 6, says "by changing the kitchen and entrance, this house can be turned and built on a narrower lot."
