The bright red door pops against the white exterior, and a pair of potted trees centers the space, while architectural windows add interest.

Bob and Bonnie Crafton’s Rogers home celebrates its 100th year in 2008, and they have restored this stately Southern plantation-style home to its original splendor.

The Craftons continued the red accent color to the furnishings and colorful pillows on the porch, and Bonnie decided to paint the ceiling a light green color, which she found more appealing than the traditional gray. A true sign of Southern living, the porch swing and accompanying chairs offer the ideal spot to relax and visit with guests.
