LIVING ROOM

The morning light in the living room is so lovely. The whole room fills up with gentle sunlight, and the light coming in through the stained-glass windows makes little jewels on the floor.
 

Dining Room

The dining room has a comfortable, informal feel but is large enough to fit a big table for entertaining.
 

Kitchen


The big, comfy window seat in the kitchen is a perfect place to sit and read or daydream or just relax for a minute while the oven is preheating!
 

SUNROOM

The sunroom is everyone’s favorite room of the house — even in winter and even at night! The summer sun is a joy, but the wood stove keeps things cozy during the colder months, and having a big screen set up on the wall for movies at night.

Primary SUITE
