Porches are a part of living in this home. There are available North, South, East or West. This allows for a great deal of outdoor living in a warm Southern climate. On a hot day, you can find a shady spot. On a windy, or chilly day, you can find a protected area. And, varying sizes of porches make for options in entertaining. A smaller porch can be used for a small group. And, the porches, decks, and yard work great for a very large gathering as well.

SITE
Landscaping design is based on an heirloom plan, which incorporates traditional shade trees and varieties of trees shrubs and blooming perennials. Trees include: Crepe myrtle, Dogwood, Pecan, Oak, Maple, O’Sage Orange, Tulip Poplar, Hemlock, Holly, Ornamental Plum, and others. Shrubs include Tea Olive, Camellia, Various Hollies, Rhododendron, Azaleas, Gardenia, Blueberries, Ligustrum, japonica, and others. Blooming perennials include: Spirea, Iris, Dutch iris, Lilies, Snowdrops, Narcissus, Daffodils, Coreopsis, roses, and various others. Most of the year, there is something blooming in the yard.
Arborists have advised that the O’ sage orange tree in the west yard is at least 200 years old. This is not a native species for this area. These trees are native to Missouri and Oklahoma. Therefore, it is likely that the tree was planted by Indians, perhaps as a part of a trade route. Nearby Oconee Station Park has information about such a trade route organized through the area.
