Come Sit With Me A Moment. I Want To Tell You About A House I Would Never Describe By Numbers Alone, Though The Numbers Are Good To Know. It Stands At 629 Belden Street In Peekskill, And When You Open The Door, The First Thing You Notice Is Color. Blue Draws You Into The Entry. Farther On, The Living Room Wears A Bright Green That Would Be Hard To Forget. The Kitchen Has Room For A Table, And You Know How I Feel About A Kitchen Table: Plans Get Made There, Stories Get Retold There, And Sometimes People Stay Long After The Plates Are Cleared. Now, Let Me Walk You Through It Properly. On The Main Level There Is An Eat-in Kitchen, Dining Room, And Living Room, Plus A Bedroom And Bath. Upstairs, There Are Three More Bedrooms, Another Bath, A Bonus Room, An Office Nook, Perhaps A Playroom Or Walk-in-closet. Downstairs Is A Fifth Bedroom, A Third Bath, Laundry, And A Room With A Door To A Small Deck. Out Back, A Lawn And The Trees Give The Eye Somewhere To Wander. With A Little Over 2, 300 Square Feet Across Three Levels, There Is Room For Activity In One Part Of The House And A Quiet Corner In Another. I Would Tell You To Walk Slowly Through It. Notice How The Color Changes At Each Turn, And How A Room Can Feel Different When The Light Moves Across It. Stand In The Living Room For A Moment, Then Go Upstairs And Look Back At The Route You Took. Visit The Lower Level And See Where The Door Meets The Deck. Those Are The Details A List Cannot Hold. A House Becomes Familiar In Small Pieces: The First Room You Seek Out In The Morning, The One You Choose When You Want To Hear Your Own Thoughts, The Path You Learn Without Looking. And Don't Forget The City Outside. Peekskill Has Art And Places To Eat Downtown, Performances At The Paramount, Parks Along The Hudson River, And A Train Station Nearby. You Might Spend An Afternoon Out There, Then Return To This Bright Front Door. That Is What I Have Come To Admire In A Home: It Gives You Places To Go Within It, And It Feels Good To Come Back To. Come See It Before Someone Else Claims The Kitchen Table.
