Pella and Anderson double-paned windows and custom Hunter-Douglas shades. Six separate decks.

Storage area under the house, with electricity already in, could be expanded for more storage, exercise room, hobby room, etc. The yard was featured in the August 3, 2005, edition of The World and is a gardener’s delight.
