The view fills my heart with joy. What an incredible privilege to wake up to it each morning. On top of that, we have some rather large birds that have claimed our house as their own. Seeing a bald eagle perched on the rooftop is the norm. Other wild animals like moose are frequent travelers through the yard.
We love the house. We designed it, built it, maintain it. The radiant floor heating is wonderful. The best feature is the many windows letting nature come in.
