In March, 1999 I bought my first house. Keep in mind as you go through the tour that I haven't decorated the house in "Phil style" yet.

Style: Rambler
Lot Size: 50' wide by 140' deep
House Frame: 28' wide by 34' deep
Living Square Footage: 840
Basement Square Footage: 260
1 Bathroom
2 Car Attached "Tuck Under" Garage
Deck: 12' by 12'
Gas Furnace
Central Air Conditioning

My house is located approximately 10 minutes from downtown Minneapolis. This makes things very convenient when the Cleveland Indians are in town.

This is the front of the house and the garage facing the street. The stone wall to the left is not a fireplace but adds a nice touch. Decorative red and green lights accent the garage at night. Unfortunately, the Elm tree on the right had Dutch Elm disease and was cut down by the city.

This is the back of the house with the deck and sliding glass door which enters the kitchen.

This is the view from the kitchen onto the deck. You can see the gas grill and the storage shed in the back.
