Make yourself at home among our treasures. Each room has its own theme to make your stay a truly unique experience. It is a collaboration of our past, present and future plans, as well as things we adore, places we've been and ancestor's artwork and books.
The bedrooms were inspired by what we're studying this summer; Mahatma Gandhi, Ancient Egypt and sushi!

Enjoy a relaxing breakfast on the patio while the kids play or read one of our 100 year old books in a quiet corner.

The first thing you notice when you walk in the house is the art gallery wall in the living room. The oldest piece is over 60 years old of my father as a baby, painted by my late great-great uncle. This is a treasure and when my late grandmother gave it to me, the gallery wall inspiration followed. And just like that, it grew with old and new. Adding quickly was my husband’s first father’s day gift, a charcoal piece by Andy Espinoza. We continued with my grandmother’s landscapes, my daughter’s artworks, my late great aunt’s embroidery, my husband’s paint by numbers of a photo we took in Venice (he needs all the help he can get with art – his words), my sister’s painting of a young woman from when she was in high school, my nephew, sister in law and father in law's paintings as well as a couple of mine! We've packed it and we love it.

For me, this wall starts the understanding of who we are, where we came from and where we are going. Trying to raise two girls to have a better grasp of the world around then, more understanding of who people are and why we have the problems we do, begins with the past.

We can’t nurture correctly until we understand what needs nurtured.

Our home is subject to our journey. This is where we began and we come back to. It’s a collection of things we love and adore, people and places we’ve studied. While you enjoy our home, we will be continuing to discover what else is out there.

As an interior decorator and party planner, I’ve had to reel it in a few times in order to get our place posted. We plan to continue to change and develop the house in time. I want our home to be perfect for our guests and exude all the stories I want it to tell, but it’s not perfect. Built in 1969, side-to-side split with many stairs; the bathroom showers are on the list for updates, a sand and stain on the hardwood floors would be wonderful and new cabinetry in the kitchen are hopefully around the corner. While these things are on our agenda, we are excited to share our home with others that can see the value and effort we’ve put into it for you.

Please note again, there are stairs to enter the front door. This opens into the living room, kitchen and dining room. There are 7 more stairs to go up to the hall bathroom and three bedrooms with another 7 stairs up to the last bedroom. From the kitchen there is a full set of stairs down to the TV room with another 7 stairs down to the laundry room.
