  1. Awe…that is what I feel looking at this home.

    It has so much going on…beautiful proportions / covered veranda / architectural details / multiple roof lines / interesting window pane details / so much….

    maybe some day when you are going by you might consider knocking on the door and asking if you could take a few interior pics for your admiring readers…
