My favorite feature of my house is the radiant heated floors. Living in the northeastern part of the country, the winters are long and brutal. The heating system runs for the majority of the year.

The heater upgrade was finished before opening time. My neighbor owned a massage parlor, however before, she had worked there as a masseuse for multiple years.
