All seven of us live on a 100+ year old estate that we have dubbed the Phamduy Manor. We live in a home that once served as a farmhouse with an adjunct barn. The current condition of the house itself had gone through many changes, and we are proud to say we sweated our bloody two-cents to make it the manor it is today. What's funny is that Ba pointed out that the blue-white-green scheme of this website is very, VERY similar to the colors around the house. Kind of nostalgic, isn't it, Ba? Inside of the original farmhouse, the first floor has our living room, guest bedroom, family room, kitchen, dining room, and study/library room. Above in the second floor are our bedrooms and laundry room. Below in the basement is an entire guest house. The barn contains our multi-function studio and home-business. But, of course, there are still many places that cry out for renovation. We'll get to work on them in the upcoming years. The Phamduy Manor complimented by the Grand Patio and surrounded by a contiguous stretches of the Northern, Eastern, and Western Gardens. Our Gardens contains our famous Seven Orchids and an expansive range of native and exotic vegetation. Currently, we are working to add a Southern garden and greenhouse/patio. But... It's the people who live inside the home that counts. Here we are!
