The neutral colors and warm looks are very appealing and striking.
Just off of the back covered porch you will discover a beautiful level back yard! The yard is flat, and easy to maintain. It would be a great yard for a luau, corn hole, a swing set, or a huge English garden. Whatever you choose. The current owner added the large concrete patio. It is a welcoming place to enjoy a glass of wine at the end of a long day, or after working in the garden! This rear yard is partly shaded for entertainment, but gets plenty of sunshine for the flowers. The rear yard is not completely fenced in, but it could easily join the other fences to complete the rear yard.
