My wife and I immediately knew this house was it. We've been in this 1926 Craftsman-style house for 10 years now. For her space, she has a sun room with windows on three sides. When the door is close, it means closed. I have the half attic upstairs. It is carpeted, paneled, and has a half bath. Oh, and built-in drawers. The only problem was the heat. Foolishly, I thought a window unit air conditioner would work. Nope, not a bit. Then I got a grant to write a composition. I used it to buy a built-in air conditioner for the attic. As the installer said, we can freeze you out up there. The only problem is that sometimes my toes get cold.
