HOME IS WHERE THE HEARTH IS


You're looking at the great room from the kitchen. Entry door is to the right...that white door with the oval glass. This house originally had 2 fireplaces...the other one was about where you are standing in this photo, along with a wall. All gone! So now we have a nice big open room. Furniture here is staged but we'll have a more interesting grouping. The fireplace has been totally redone in a nice ledge rock with a custom oak mantlepiece. The walls are a peachy beige and the carpet is taupe (light dirt colored) short shag...the hot new thing (only if you haven't had shag before)
The big window on the left faces west into the backyard. Luckily there are several mature trees, leafless now so I'm having to guess that they are probably Sunset maples.
The fireplace wall is the common wall with the attached garage. You go out the front door and hang a left through another door into the garage. At least you have a nice covered entry so you don't have to get wet.
