When the spring rain is washing away the end of winter, you’ll be able to pull into your two-car attached garage and enter your home through the laundry/mudroom area to leave your boots, and muddy footprints, behind. You might stop in the den to check the weather report or your e-mail. Or perhaps you’ll go to the kitchen for a warm cup of tea. Crossing to your master suite, you’ll be welcomed into your own sanctuary. If you want to change clothing, it will be easy, as your walk-in closet is roomy enough to display your entire wardrobe. Changed for the evening, you might light the optional fireplace to give warm ambiance to the great room and dining room. A quick check of the guest bedroom and bath tells you they are ready and waiting for the company you are expecting. Coming back to your spacious kitchen, you’ll begin dinner prep, finding all the spices for your signature dish in the pantry. You’ll like cooking in this kitchen, with it’s stainless steel appliances, ample counter tops, and cabinets. Best of all, once your guests arrive, you’ll be able to catch up while you put the finishing touches on dinner, because with the Charlevoix’s open floor plan, you are never left out of the action or the conversation.
