To craft a rock solid real estate recipe, begin with a suburban nearly urban cedar-sided ranch (primary suite on main, anyone?). Add a saltwater pool, the ever-elusive, side load two car garage, a workshop with a walk-in cedar closet, a renovated kitchen, an immense family room (vaulted ceilings!). Sprinkle with a flat (re: usable!), cul-de-sac adjacent lot, a deck, a patio, rocking chair-ready front porch and some majestic trees. Serve hot or cold, rain or shine, this recipe stands the test of time.
