In the Hampton Roads region of Virginia, there's a place where the breathing is easy, even in the summertime. This retreat can be found in a two-story, 13,000-sq.ft. French country style house that sits next to the James River. Lush greenery surrounds the area, providing a stunning backdrop for this spectacular home.

While this breathtaking beauty can also leave allergy sufferers breathless, owners Frances and Robert don't have to worry because the outdoors is safely kep out-of-doors by quality construction and the top-notch system installed by Southern Comfort Heating & Cooling, a previous QHCA award-winner.
