With bedrooms and living spaces on both levels, you’ll have all kinds of interior options for bickering and arguing with the people you try to see just once a year! The outside offers a screened porch and large brick patio for blowing off steam (or smoke) when you have watched National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation one too many times in a 24-hour period. Hang pantookas on the ceilings or pile panpoonas on the floor or run outside and harvest fruit from the specimen fruiting trees and vines. Don’t let it be that your shoes are too tight or that your head isn't screwed on just right. With fresh paint inside and out and a newer roof and HVAC, let your heart grow three sizes tonight!
