Good Design Feature often overlooked in New Homes

Being involved as a Homebuilder since 1986, I can say without a doubt that one of the most popular design features would suprise many prospective home buyers. It's not even located inside the home and it is often overlooked. It's a rear "covered" deck or patio. There are several reasons why this is such a good option if it [...]
