Our home is beautiful. The waterfront plot is at least an acre in size. The backyard is terraced and there is a fenced area for the kids. The property is beautifully landscaped and requires very little maintenance. The three-car garage adjoins the house at an angle and the circle drive is always a blessing. We have some great trees that tie the composition of the property together nicely. Spanish tile covers the entire roof. The many large, energy-efficient windows flood the house with great natural light. Earth tones surround you as you pass through the heavy wooden doors over the threshold. A mix of ceramic tile, hardwood and world-inspired area rugs account for the floors throughout the house. This particular style of flooring also keeps dust low and cleaning easy. Everything about the house is low to no maintenance. The lack of yard in the front, the plant choices for landscaping, the roof, the floors; form and function meet beautifully. The climate here is temperate; not too hot, not too cold, while still allowing for mild changes in seasons. The skies are usually steady and clear. We live on the water, on an inlet (or cove?) and we often comment on how wonderful the breeze is as it blows up off the calm water below.
