To cross the threshold is to behold the beauty of another time. The original river rock fireplace defines the reception hall. A signal of hospitality and comfort, it reminds all who enter to pause and enjoy. Original Washington-grown hemlock millwork rises from baseboard to board-and-batten paneling, from crown molding to the beamed, herringbone ceiling while original fir floors gleam below. Every direction calls with interest. Where to start? Go straight ahead into the formal dining room? Up the stairs toward the window seat? Let's take a left into the parlor to begin. The front parlor offers light and elegance with windows facing south and east. Look out across the wraparound porch to the neighborhood trees and activity of people going to and from nearby schools. A cased opening—complete with a set of working pocket doors—connects the front parlor to the living room and den beyond. Slide them open to glimpse light coming through all the way from the kitchen at the back of the house, or closed to keep the focus in one place. Notice the design of the fir floors throughout. Rather than all running parallel to one another, you'll see "stepped" borders sometimes referred to as a "log cabin corners."
