Erie

However much house styles may change, that most practical of all plans, the square house, always remains in vogue. And "The Erie" is genuinely an all-prized design of this most popular type.
There is a prosperous, substantial appearance to this home. It is free from elaboration—yet full of the spice of style. The extending roof with its distinctive dormer, the shingled upper story, the wide expanse of porch, the solid type of porch pillars—everything bears out the impression that here live people of a most desirable American type. The first room inside is a reception hall, serving the purpose of receiving the casual caller, and of providing the place from whence a simple stairway winds toward the upstairs. The living room is a square one with five windows to guarantee a flood of light. From here a colonnade-opening leads to the dining room on one of the back corners of the house. This room is also bright with light. The kitchen is the usual compact and complete Bennett arrangement. There is a passageway from the kitchen to the front hall.
The upstairs arrangement of this home is as ideal as that of the lower floor—every room a corner room. Three spacious sleeping chambers—each with its own capacious closet—a convenient bath and a handy linen closet complete the layout.
