Virtual Tour

Hi everybody!
For everyone that hasn't yet seen the inside of 21 West Lane, here's a little virtual tour of the house. We always go in the back door (the Vermont front door) because we have space for shoes and coats in there so we can keep the dining room clean where the other entry is. So I'm going to start from there. We have just walked up onto the deck, and have opened the door to the mudroom/laundry room. I know you've all already seen this one, if you've read the posts below...


From here, you go through a door on your left into the kitchen. Note: the third photo shown below is a view of the kitchen from the living room. At the right-hand side of the picture, you will see the refridgerator in the background. Just to the right of this is the back door.


Beyond the kitchen is the dining room. They're both pretty much in one large room, but we consider them to be two rooms. Our table doesn't quite fit the space =] In the second photo below, you'll see the real front door to the house, as well as the entry to the living room on the far left.


The living room, like the dining room is a bright room with lots of south-facing windows. The second photo below is looking back into the dining room from the living room. To the right of the photo, just out of the picture, is the wall that we moved the outlet from earlier, and directly to the photographers right is the third bedroom, which we use as an office.


Here's the office. There is another window to the right, and a large closet to the left that can't be seen in the photo.


To get upstairs, you're going to have to use your imagination, because I didn't get a photo of the stairs from the first floor. But you're going to have to walk into the kitchen from the mudroom, and go through the second door on your left. The first door would take you into the downstairs bathroom, and the third door would take you into the basement. Here is a photo of the stairs from the perspective of the master bedroom. Zach's mom painted the photo on the wall above the stairs. It's a view of Ruhpolding from Viola's bedroom window in Germany. On the left, you'll see a narrow hallway that leads to a doorway. This is the way to get to the second bedroom, or maze room, or dads room, or fabian's room...depending on who you ask.


And here is the second bedroom from the stairs. It's not as low as it seems, but the sloping ceiling doesn't leave a ton of headroom throughout. It's a really cozy space with a nice west-facing window, and a good-sized closet (not seen).


The master bedroom is directly at the top of the stairs. The first photo below is what you would see right when you walk in. Viola made the curtains! In the second photo you can see a doorway that leads to the master bathroom. The door to the hallway is directly to the left of this.


And that's about it! I didn't include photos of the basement or bathrooms, as they were hard to photograph. I hope you've enjoyed the tour. I'll try to post more again soon.
