This addition will house the kitchen, mud room, pantry, utility room, laundry room, linen closet, master bath, owner/manager living quarters. Upstairs will be two guest rooms, each with a bathroom. The door upstairs will go out to the terrace behind the house. If you're wondering why the walls aren't flush with the original house, the Historical Preservation Commission won't allow it.
The house at 350 Williams Street in Deadwood, SD, was built in 1879 for Granville Bennett, the first judge in Dakota Territory. Jim Fletcher's family bought it in 1944 and it has been in the family ever since. We are now in the process of restoring it.

Another excerpt from "Old Deadwood Days"
I thought this except was appropriate for this time of year:
Page 269--"Mrs. McPherson came down the hill…to the edge of our backyard wall and called to me. My bedroom was on a level with where she stood in the bushes that had turned crimson and gold. She was a dark-eyed blonde, and the afternoon sunlight bringing out the bright glints in her yellow hair made her look like the friendly peaceful spirit of Indian summer."

Help me design our dream kitchen
Here's the space where the new kitchen will be. I don't have the dimensions yet, but it will be large. Tell me what you have or would include in your "dream" kitchen.
