Wild about Watson! Picture this: you're sitting on your cozy front porch drinking your first cup of coffee in the morning. The cool, fall breeze wisps past as you hear your dogs frolic in the huge fenced side yard. You wave to the neighbors walking the block. You need to have them over again soon- last month's game night on the back deck was a hit. Or maybe hit up a Bulls game with them today. It's only a ten minute drive to the ballpark, after all. The crisp, fall air brings you back inside for a moment to layer up. As you enter, you pause for a moment to appreciate the Durham Building Company's thoughtful open concept design. How lucky were you to find a newer, low-maintenance home that still has so much character and charm?! You head into your first-floor primary bedroom, leading to your deep walk-in closet and pull out your favorite sweater. Fall is finally here and you couldn't be cozier!
