Looking at the adjacent living and dining areas from the middle of the first floor. These areas are both provided with ample natural light and great views from a southwest exposure. Free wood for the fireplace is outside the French doors on a patio. (The covered firewood is partly visible through the patio door window on the right.) The windows have wood blinds to provide privacy, but are raised in the photo to show the outdoor views. The french doors open to a patio that offers spectacular mountain vistas in summer and winter.
