_____________________________________________________________________________________________

The living room area appears open and spacious, due to the walls of glass on either side, and also due to the vaulted ceiling, which enhances the height of the room.

We would have preferred if the fireplace had not been painted over, but since the damage was already done, we only changed the color from beige to white.

The wood burning stove inserted into the fire place, which can be seen in some of the pictures is gone by now. We always felt that it was too rustic for an Eichler. Since it did not work very well either, we finally decided to convert back to the original fireplace and added a contemporary set of doors and fireplace tools.

The pictures to the right also provide a bit of a perspective on the mahogany paneling vs. the painted look. The smaller picture was taken before painting the wall and the fireplace.
