The Monitor




This is another favorite for "our house". I envision this house in a Monitor style horse barn. The center section would have an elevated roof allowing for light and airflow. In my imagination, these windows can be opened or covered with insulating blinds by remote control for passive solar purposes.

My world revolves around my kitchen. This home has a professional kitchen at the center that easily accesses every other aspect of the home. Pass thru's and doors allow the kitchen to be opened to the living room and family area, but can be shut to provide privacy when entertaining. The office too, is close to the kitchen, yet has an outside entrance for family privacy.

This home has a large pantry/storm room. If a basement is wanted, this room could become a stairwell.

The mudroom has a large walk-in closet, a laundry center with a double laundry sink as well as both a hand sink and mop sink. There are 2 doors into the mudroom to provide both an outside and garage entry.

The master bath features a jacuzzi and a walk-in shower and connects with the mudroom.

This 2387 sq ft home maximizes privacy and access for an enterprising country family!
