The in the front left corner as you are looking at the house was Jóhannes and Kristin´s room. accross the hall and stairway to the right front corner was the nursery. The kitchen wasn´t added until a later date and it was the full width of the back of the house. There are two tall pines at the front of the property and they used to be directly in front of the front door. You would drive up to a fence, park in front of the two trees. There was no ditch then, and the road didn´t go to the water.
