	Melrose Plantation
		The house never seemed the same because of this heavy, permanent, impenetrable separation from the ease of enjoying the front porch and having conversations that could include those on both sides of the screen.
		Before a past owner enclosed the back porch to create a laundry and bathroom, there was always a breeze blowing through the house through the center hall's front and back screen doors former residents have told us.
		Although our screen doors were gone when we bought Melrose, I still leave the exterior doors open to the front porch and hope that not too many birds, lizards, spiders and frogs invite themselves in.

		Their house, a typical 19th century Victorian, had been divided into a two family home, leaving them with a set of too-small rooms they'd adapted to fit their needs.
		To rescue some of the wasted space, a fourth gable dormer was added to open up the south side of the house, and the other gables were converted into storage and sitting areas, a closet and a bathroom.
		The unfinished space was uninsulated so the crew added six inches of fiberglass insulation between the rafters and topped it with two-inch rigid insulation to help keep the new rooms warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
