As some people know, I have a soft spot for porches.  When we added some rooms to the second story of our home, I couldn't help but sneak a porch in below.  In Bedroom Addition you can see why I am glad I did.

A sleeping porch has a character all it's own.  One of the finest examples of that wonderful porch type can be seen in Sleeping Porch.

Mark your calendars!  FineHome Source is coming to Millbrook, September 26th and we can't wait.  There will be experts in geothermal systems, plaster restoration, audio and lighting, and much much more!

The family believed she’d be cured if she got plenty of rest and fresh air out on the porch. The porch is now used as a place to retreat and read, a perch to view the property or an outdoor summer bedroom as originally designed.
