This is the third paragraph of my essay (body paragraph 1).
Currently, an entrance door on the south side of the house leads to a hall in the middle that has a staircase with storage on its right side and two doors. One of these doors leads to a kitchen, which dominates the left section and is also accessible by an entrance on its north side, while the other door opens into a living room, on the right section.

1) Is it correct to say that an entrance door is on the north side or on the northwest side of a house?

2) In this context, is it correct to simply say "south entrance" or "northwest entrance"?
For example, "the south entrance (of the house) leads to a hall with two doors and stairs, while the northwest entrance opens into the kitchen."

Yes to your questions but I think the passage needs a couple of changes for clarity.

Currently, an entrance door on the south side of the house leads to a hall in the middle that has a staircase with storage on its right side and two doors. One of these doors leads to a kitchen, which dominates the left section and is also accessible by an entrance on its north side, while the other door opens into a living room, on the right section.
Currently, the main door on the south side opens into a hall with a staircase and storage space on the right. There are two doors at the ends of each side of the hall, one leading to the kitchen that dominates the left section and is also accessible by an entrance from the north, and the other leading to the living room on the right.
