Maria designed for luxury and comfort

Maria (405-38) is a sprawling ranch styled home, designed for luxury and comfort. The garage definitely had the busy farmer in mind, with a large two-car garage, a shop with workbenches and a sink, and a huge storage area. Above the garage is also an attic for further storage and safekeeping of important items.

Connected to the garage is a covered porch over the entry to this magnificent home. The living room faces the front and is lined with windows. There is a ceiling fan mounted overhead to help circulate air and keep the room comfortable. In lieu of doors, the living room and the computer room have archways. The computer is centrally located in the home for easy access from any other room.

The family room is large and open, giving an air of the gathering area of past. However, to bring the family closer in this home, there is a large built-in entertainment center, viewable from the family room, the kitchen, and the covered deck beyond. The air is circulated by another large ceiling fan. Adjacent to the family room, the kitchen nook is vaulted and lighted by a large window. An island cook top, corner ovens, and sink are spaced for a true working ranch home, where there is need to have more than one cook in the kitchen to prepare the meals. The corner pantry is handy for supplies.

Pampering begins at home, and Maria's master suite has been designed to make life more wonderful. There are two large walk-in closets, with access to the back of the entertainment center hidden within. The skylit full bath has two sinks, a shower, and a raised tub.

Completely away from the master suite are the other two bedrooms, another full bath, and the utility room. Each bedroom has a wall closet, along with window seats for daydreaming.

The utility room has two entrances, one from the garage area and one from the hail area. Folding counters, a freezer, and the washer and dryer fit easily into the space allowed. Because of the enormous length of this home, two water heaters have been placed to provide ample hot water throughout the home.
