    When you wake up in the morning do you want it to be in a home that is flooded with natural sunlight? Laying in bed you are happy as you look at your large bedroom with en suite and walk in closet. And there is another large bedroom with its own walk in closet and bathroom as well. You wander down the stairs to your kitchen to get your coffee and your day started, and as you sit at your bright kitchen table and south facing home you feel great about your space, modern paint, newer flooring, upgraded mechanical and more. Your spouse joins you and the busy of the day starts. You can take you dog for a walk to and play in the park up the street. It’s a quick jump downtown or onto the bus or whitemud for getting to work (unless you decide the downstairs office space is your new work space?). You take your coffee to the back to enjoy the privacy on the deck and bask in the sun.. Maybe you should just head into the tandem attached garage and go for a quick bike ride instead of work today?
