The Fourth House on the Tour

 


I'm back to the Phoenix Home and Garden Tour from a week ago.  This one was the fourth house we visited and it had several unusual attractions.


This lovely seating area was off to the side of the front of the house.  It was a little unusual to see an area like this at the front of the house but the house was on a very quiet street and was protected by the landscape and hedges.  



There was a little hill to one side of the house where a pond and waterfall were located.  Behind that waterfall was a big surprise, a vineyard...of all things. You can see the grapevines growing over the top of the table in the photo to the left. We asked what kind of grapes they were growing but no one seemed to know.

It was a tiny little vineyard so I'm not sure how many grapes they could actually harvest.  However, it made me wonder if the owner likes to dabble in a little wine-making.  










As with all the homes we visited, there was a very nice pool.  

Way back in one corner of the yard was a chicken coop.  Yes, there were chickens in it.  Along with grapes, this family gets fresh eggs to enjoy.  Another very interesting house.

It's pretty...but...don't you ever feel like some people have way too much money?!

Another fabulous home Sharon. Yes maybe the owner makes a private wine just for themselves and friends 😉 I love the idea of fresh eggs, I wonder what my neighbours would think about a few chickens in my back yard 😉
