Listening to the fountain in the yard and a glass of specially brewed iced tea will keep you cool.This is the front parlour done in the original paint color which reflects candlelight beautifully. This area is used for family get togethers, morning coffee and newspaper, as well as tea time and wine or drinks. The 12 foot Christmas tree and decorations make this room breathtaking at the Holidays.
