Describe the Finch home in To Kill a Mockingbird.

Atticus, his children, and Calpurnia lived on the main
residential street in town, a town which Scout describes as a "tired old town when I
first knew it."  There was a town square, an old courthouse, red clay roads, and grass
growing up through the sidewalk cracks.  Mrs. Henry Lafayette Dubose lived two doors
north, the Radleys, three doors south, and Mrs. Rachel Haverford and her collard patch
directly next door, which is where the children first encounter Dill.  The Finch home
has an enclosed porch in the back, where the children sleep in the summer, and an open
front porch with a swing.  Scout and Jem have adjoining bedrooms, and there is a guest
bedroom where Aunt Alexandra stays when she comes to town.
