In the Neighborhood, William Ryan Homes

Now through the end of April, William Ryan Homes is offering 50 percent off their signature Morning Rooms, an extremely popular feature that many families love in their new home.
The Morning Room is a very popular option that is usually around 15′4″ x 11′7″, and it goes off the back of the home, connected to the kitchen and breakfast area. The room offers a lot of windows to let in light and cathedral ceilings. This adds a room in a part of the house where people spend the most time.
While most families use this room as their dining area, some use it as a sitting room, office/work space, play area, even exercise room. This is a great added space for entertaining or for family gatherings. Here are some beautiful examples of morning rooms:
