SPLIT ENTRY
Split entry homes are found in most subdivisions in Bedford.
A split entry is much like a bungalow with one distinct advantage. The
basement in a bungalow is 8 ft of concrete with smaller windows. In a
split entry there is 4 ft. of concrete and the remainder of the wall is
wood, which allows for much larger windows. A typical split entry will
have a living room, dining room, eat-in kitchen, three bedrooms and two
full bathrooms on the top floor. The lower level will contain a larger
family room, a fourth bedroom, laundry room, half bath and often a basement
garage. The average size is 28 x 44 ft.
