Out Of The Box. What a novel idea! Leo’s plan for a three house subdivision: Leave as many trees as possible. Don’t line up the houses in a row. Face all three chateaux in toward a water fountain. Create a small pond with a timbered bridge. Use pavers for the street and drive ways. Give race house a aged faded elegance. Go the France to research the houses. Dreams do come true!

I Dream in French. Hand carved in the 19th century. On a buying trip to France we discovered two complete rooms of wood panels that once resided in a French chateau. We shipped them back to the US and built a house around them! The doors that once led to other rooms now serve as window treatments...Voila!
