We are leaving the big house for a smaller one. I wanted to capture some of the pictures of this lovely house before we moved on. By moving to a smaller place, we are one step closer to retiring.

The big house had 5 bedrooms, a bonus, library/den, three fireplace, four car (tandem) garage, 4800 sq. ft, 11,456 sq. ft. yard, air conditioning, heat pump, automatic generator backup, with a partial lake view off a huge deck in the back.

And here’s the floor plans minus the finished basement that was my music studio with an extra bedroom/bathroom:

We put the house on the market last Friday and the first couple who walked through had an offer for us the next morning. Let the packing begin.
