This house was perfect for my retirement. It sits back off the street and every room looks out over trees and land. It is like sitting in the middle of the woods. Some of the rooms do have floor to ceiling windows and my morning room/sun room is all windows. I do not have to go out there unless I want to. I have a lot of coats all fur lined. I have no plans of being cold when I am out there.
I hated winter when I worked because I had to get to the airport and sliding around in a car is scary. I wrecked a couple of cars should have been dead once when I slid under a truck. But I lived to retire and enjoy winter.
