ReplyDelete#2---Let place a bathroom on the 2nd floor----I don't want to travel to the first floor to take a leak and prepare for the day----I might scare some folks---Maybe revisit the sleeping porch as a bathroom----
#3---Let's throw a bathroom in the attic plan----A great floor for boarders----Have to pay those taxes---And why not squeeze in a little dorm kitchen----Nothing big----Fridge, a few hot plates, maybe an oven--sink-----Intimate eat in kitchen---
Yes, I know us Americans are obsessed with our bathrooms----Every bedroom has to have ensuite---Depends----But for sure is that there must be a w/c on the first floor----You don't want guests trapsing through your house and see the sling in the back room----
PS---#3 ---I would rework that entry way opening right into the living room----I like the idea of the stairs not being a focal point but how in the hell is one supposed to get to them without going through the living room----Let's brainstorm---
ReplyDeleteThanks always for posting these!

Delete#1 has an interesting clothes chute: a vertical chute going to the basement (presumably for laundry) from a trap door in the floor of the second-story hallway. A hazard for small pets or perhaps small children?
ReplyDeleteAunt Ida’s boarding houses !
ReplyDeleteThe dear widow inherited the houses when her husband died and had to make do. Aunt Ida told us how dear Uncle Charles and her were at the top of the stairs and he “accidentally” fell. We in the family suspected Aunt Ida pushed the cheap, miserable bastard down the stairs ! It was just that she seemed so much happier after Uncle Charles demise, the neighbors use to call her the happy widow ! :)
She made a mint renting rooms to boarders through the decades.
Like men out of the services at the ends of Ww1 and Ww2, Aunt Ida said some of them seemed to be more than just friends. :) She even rented rooms to tough bikers in the Fifties and hippies in the Sixties. The bikers were very protective and would fix her car, though she did notice some of them were more than just friends too ! At times neighbors complained about Aunt Ida’s boarders, Aunt Ida would tell them to fuck off !
She learned to cuss well from her boarders, as Ida said bikers and sailors have a way words ! :)
The hippies introduced Aunt Ida to the relaxing benefits of marijuana and the magic world of shrooms, and she was in her eighties ! Aunt Ida always said you might as well live life to fullest and she certainly did. :)
