Inside the House

 

The Phoenix Home and Garden tour guests got to see the inside of the home with "the secret garden."  And as you might expect, the inside tended to mirror the exotic nature of the garden.

Above and to the left are just two examples of the presence of Buddha in the home.  There were many more.  

























This living space had floor to ceiling windows that looked out on the garden and mirrored panels that help to make the room look extra big.  


The dining room was furnished with wood walls and display cases that were apparently salvaged from some castle in Europe.  That room also had floor to ceiling windows looking out on the garden.



More mirrors lined the entrance hall along with more Buddhas and other statues. 

All of this was hidden behind a very simple facade.  If you drove past this house, you would never even guess what was inside and in the yard.  

This one was well worth the visit.

  3. I was going to say that the woodwork did have a very European, even German, look.

  4. I think this is my favorite of all the houses you've shown on your various house tours. I love the deep green secluded garden and the big windows, not to mention all the Buddhas!
