The House of the Round Lawn

I waited, waited and waited while Alice was off real estating and doing other "work" things. She said I would have liked very much one place she saw today. Here is its beautiful round lawn where dogs and people can soak up the Sun. Alice is on the steps to the long and cool porch where dogs and people can cool off.
And here are two very important rooms: the kitchen complete with nice food and a dining room with a lovely old window perfect for surveying one's domain.
In another room is a portrait of a lady. Don't you think she looks like the lady in the kitchen? If you ask her she might tell you the interesting story of where that portrait was discovered.
A special family will live there soon. I hope they have a dog.
