Long Hollow

The sun was victorious today in this recent game between it and the gray skies.

That in itself was enough to make me happy, but I was especially grateful to see it today because there were four houses on our property tour! One a little east and north of our office, one close to downtown, and a couple out in the hills to the west, although not close to each other.

But since I missed posting last week's tour, today I'm going to show you one of those homes, because I took lots of photos!

It was on the west side of town, in the hills, near Emma Long Metropolitan Park. We passed dozens of decorated juniper trees like these along the way…

 

 

The front was pretty nice…

 

…but this is the first thing that caught my eye.

Now I want to make one!

 

But this drew me out to the back before I even explored the inside of the house.

There's a one-bedroom cabana next to it.

 

Take a look at this back porch. 

 

And when you're tired of the pool and socializing on the porch…

 

Every bit of the outside areas was put to good use.

Isn't this a cute little game court?

 

Such a great gathering spot in the kitchen…big enough for snacks for touring realtors!

 

Spotted this sign on a wall inside. Amen!

 

Isn't this an awesome ceiling?

 

This wine closet was tucked under the stairs.

(Great use of space, in my opinion!)

 

The view of the neighborhood from an upstairs balcony…

 

I loved these little round chalkboards painted on the wall. 

 

You can see downstairs from a small landing on the stairs.

For a large house, it felt very cozy and connected.

I would love to represent a buyer for this gorgeous place. (Maybe they'll invite me over to swim in the summer!)

So feel free to share and let me know if you, or someone you know, might be interested!
