The First Floor: Office, Elevator and Back Porch

Next on the tour is the office. It is accessed through the kitchen. Through the door that is partially open (by the entrance to the kitchen in the photo) is one of the most unique parts of the home.


It's the elevator! It goes from the first floor to the second floor. It was installed by the original owner in the late 50's or early 60's and is still working like a charm!


The office is a nice sized room with two outside entrance doors. One door leads out to the driveway and the other door leads out to the back porch and back yard.


There is also built in bookshelves and storage!


On the way to the back yard from the office, you see the back porch. It features terracotta tiles and stone walls!


It also provided the perfect sized space for a hot tub! It is a private little area of relaxation!
