house tour, part V

The House Tour ends here, in the backyard. This first photo shows the deck just off the back of the house. It is also where the laundry (currently) is.



Here is another view.



In the back right corner of the yard is the outdoor fireplace. Love it!



We have plans to eventually re-face the fireplace and bring it more up to date.


Standing at the fireplace and looking back across the yard...



The blue stairs that you can see in the background lead to the master bedroom. We think that whoever built the upstairs addition, had to add the exterior stairs because it would be impossible to get large pieces of furniture up the spiral staircase.



We will be getting rid of this staircase as well.


This is the future location of where the staircase will be relocated.







There is an additional area off the back of the garage. It will make a great place for a basketball hoop for 7. I also have dreams of building something like this for the kids.

Lastly, the side yard.



There are a lot of beautiful plants in the side yard; however, a lot of it is going to be redone. In fact, there is a LOT to do in the entire back, side, and front yard.
