dining-cooking space.

Growing and harvesting fresh herbs and fruits from a unique garden equipped with drip-irrigation system.

Reading, writing, or day-dreaming in the front guest bedroom/office, watching humming birds flapping their wings among the pink flowers of the desert willow and saying hello to your friendly neighbors.

Staying young and healthy by improving your hand-eye coordination through ping-pong in the fully insulated and fully painted garage and making friends with your ping-pong loving neighbors (no cost of gas, gym fee, and time driving).

Watching butter flies, humming birds, and road runners visiting the vegetation in the red brick covered back garden.

Relaxing in the jetted tub for two, during the day or night, watching the bright colors of the rose bush streaming through the wall of blocked glass or watching your own candle lights flickering around the tub.
