HISTORY: Designed by prominent local architect, Stephen Decatur Button, this house is part of a group of row houses located just a block from the seashore. With its narrow footprint, many bedrooms, and a plan distributed over 3 floors, it's ideally suited for city living. The kitchen and a small entry porch face the street, while a large porch connects the living room to the back garden. Above this a wide bay window stretches across the back, giving the bedrooms above plenty of light.

As a work of art these prints are worth purchasing in their own right. For those of you interested in building a historically inspired house, these plans offer an excellent starting point. The plan is ideally suited for a flat site. This house would be comfortable in a city setting. This spacious home has outside dimensions of approximately 20' x 60', which includes porches.

Please visit my other listings for many other drawings I am offering. I have house plans in wide variety of styles including Colonial, Craftsman, and Prairie, as well as plans of architects such as Frank Lloyd Wright, Irving Gill, Purcell & Elmslie and others.

The prints you are purchasing are crisp, high resolution black line copies on white bond paper. Any photos shown in the description are informational only and are NOT included in your purchase. The original, public domain drawings were prepared by the Historical American Building Survey and rest in the Library of Congress. (VI014)
