One morning we woke up to find a balloon launching in the field across from our casa.
We are always being surprised by wondrous events we can see from our house!

ROOF TERRACE
While the first and second floor of the house have beautiful views of the town and countryside, the roof has a panoramic 360 degree view.
It is the perfect place for lounging in the sun, watching fireworks or star gazing.
BASEMENT STUDIO
It's hard to really tell the size and scale of this basement studio space. The photo is taken from the stairs down into it. The box you see is a large TV box. The ceilings are 20 feet tall or more.
The room has natural light through skylights in the main terrace floor. It also has ceiling lights. It's a perfect place for a painter who works large or messy, or a sculptor. Let creativity reign.
We discovered it also has cave acoustics -- bad for conversation but terrific for musical harmony!
