Set 20 feet above the St. Joseph River this architect designed home offers a panoramic view through full length glass doors in a sunroom, living room, and dining room opening onto deck running across the back. (In contrast to houses from which you can walk directly out to the river there is no danger of flooding here.) The yard was professionally landscaped with bushes and plants that flower sequentially through the spring, summer and fall. Entering from the front, you step into an open three-story foyer, which with the cathedral ceiling in the living room and skylights throughout the house give it a light and airy feeling. The sun room on the south leads through French doors to the master bedroom, a walk-in closet and bath. The living and dining rooms are both joined to a large, all white kitchen, with granite counter-tops and a separate eating area. All three rooms have hardwood floors and the easy flow from one room to another makes this home an easy place to entertain. With open doors you can serve buffet style from the island in the kitchen or shut the doors to hide the preparation mess. Entering the house directly from the two car garage, you can leave your shoes and coast in a hall mud room which has a small utility room with washer, dryer, sink and storage cabinets on the side. Upstairs there are three additional bedrooms, one with hardwood floors and windows overlooking the river separated from a second on the north by a full bath. The third across an open hall or "bridge" overlooking the living room in the southeast has its own half-bath. The center of the full basement has been finished into a large family TV room with its own full bath. The two side rooms could be finished. At present they provide lots of storage space.
