we do it in front of the fireplace
Reading, HBO marathons, naps – our Cornerstone living room, complete with floating fireplace, is so relaxing we can’t tear ourselves away. This was just one of the many perks that sold us on our home; each room is like a page from a design magazine. The huge, covered patio is a nice touch, too – we love to BBQ. The best part of the deal? While the price is affordable, the quality is high, reflecting Marcon’s 25 years in business.
