This is my worse, and this is my office. I call it tier nook. It's time for a speed tour. You'll wanna see inside. It's springtime in Texas, and this fescue grass is going ballistic. Inside, we've got a comfy open sitting area. Friends come over and visit and no work all the time. Fridge, freezer, speed oven, full kitchen, everything you need to live here. Library, got a place to sketch. That tier there is a drawing of my office. This desk is epic with so much inspiration flooding through these windows. Better, no, we gotta run upstairs, so you can see the cozy sleeping loft. Loft. This is a plush king bad, and we have guests come and stay over all the time. Got a chiminea, a little dresser. Let's run downstairs, and I'll show you the full bathroom. Got a walk in shower with a window into the privacy of 20 acres of untouched forest. Oh, and I like to paint. This is my studio with lots of good light, no, could also be used as a gym or another bedroom. Let's not forget the floating deck which juts out over this creek. In a few weeks, it should be rushing. I love to sit and sip coffee.
