The stone wall facing the deck is a nice touch. And with the roof over the deck you can actually have nice outdoor furniture with cushions, rugs, etc. Not things we see often in PA. My in laws live outside of San Diego and of course they can use outdoor furniture without a roof pretty much year-round. But thing that blew my mind in San Diego is that one night while we were there they left open their patio door because we were going in and out of the house while grilling outside. The lights were on inside the house and not a single flying insect went inside. In PA if I left open a door in summer with lights on inside the house, it would be easier to sell the house than to kill all of the flying insects inside.
