The dining room is balanced by the 90 degree, sash windows and when the drapes are drawn gives the room simple elegance. Oatmeal colored looped, low pile carpet throughout keeps the sound of footsteps muffled and warm on the raised foundation. There is ample storage in the kitchen w/ peanut brittle colored pine cabinetry w/ vintage, rustic hinges anchored by tile counters. Floor to ceiling cupboards keeps house keeping tools out of site but close at hand, the hot water heater easy to maintain and ample storage for food and kitchen gadgets.
