The home has a book case with board games, light reading, puzzles and whatnot. This home got its name "Pinkies Starlight Chateau" because of the gorgeous view of the stars at night.. With absolutely zero light pollution to dim out the lessers, the sky is just a beautiful blanket of sparkling wonder on clear nights .... The home has 2 outdoor seating areas, the front covered porch has *seasonal* rocking chairs and the back, uncovered deck is absolutely perfect for watching a meteor shower or grilling those summertime burgers. This is a VERY quiet neighborhood and we all wish to keep it that way so I please request that all outdoor activity be kept at a minimum and/or whisper quiet after 9 pm. *Note, human noise scares away the wildlife/birds that we love so much. thank you
