The original fireplace only opened to the dining room, and while that was nice, the dream to have two rooms lit at once is that much better! <BR/>When we bought the house even the inspector said it had "layout issues" so we really did have to spend a lot of time getting the house to have the all-important "good flow"!! <BR/>p.s. thanks for the tutorial on how to get my drawings up!for the love of a househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13151787635612708698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6005324767450032096.post-32571991052037910712009-03-09T08:52:00.000-04:002009-03-09T08:52:00.000-04:00Joan,Your plans are fantastic.

The fireplace between the dining room and kitchen eating area is double-sided?

To answer your qu...Linda- You are so dayum funny!! To answer your questions (and thank you for asking!): the only double sided fireplace is between the kitchen and dining room. Then there is a fireplace that opens into the living room and one in the master bedroom. The Barn Room is a 12' 4" (my master closet sits above it); the Outhouse opens into the Barn room (not to the outside!); as to windows in the Barn- there will be 4 windows on the North wall and two large french doors with transoms on the East wall which will flank a "future" stone fireplace! A post on the Barn progress is next, and hopefully that will help grasshopper (and everyone else!) see it!!<BR/><BR/>Brooke- yes, of course you can live in the barn, please bring your beautiful clock!!

I sometimes forget that people don't see what I see! <BR/>I am truly touched that you have been following our progress.

I just have to say that I really enjoyed seeing these drawings on how things are laid out as I was always trying to figure it out :-) My dream would be to refurbish an antique home as you are doing but the next best thing is watching you do it! Your area of the country is gorgeous as well!Marshahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06653985303549953889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6005324767450032096.post-43929714813018400942009-03-07T08:15:00.000-05:002009-03-07T08:15:00.000-05:00Hi Mary- We'll have extra closet space, so you can...Hi Mary- We'll have extra closet space, so you can borrow some!!<BR/>We went wrong with me not being computer savy! Tuesday was the day I "tried" to get readable floor plans posted, but didn't and then saved as a draft! <BR/>I am dubbing you my "administrative assistant!"
