Architect Helen Hald's humble Kirk home still awes

The Hald home, originally 1,190 square feet, is now 1,450 because the previous owner expanded the house into the original carport. The home has three bedrooms and 11/2 baths. "Southern exposure is the way to design your house in this climate," says the architect in Hald. "In the summertime with that overhang the sun barely enters the house. And in the wintertime the sun, with that low angle, comes clear back to the fireplace."
